Abstract:
Oral care compositions and methods for the same are provided herein. The oral care composition may include an orally acceptable vehicle, a peroxide whitening agent, and one or more gelling agents. The gelling agents may include a fatty acid. The gelling agents may be free or substantially free of fatty alcohols. The gelling agents may include at least one of palmitic acid, stearic acid, or mixtures thereof.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to core shell silica particles, wherein each core shell silica particle comprises a silica core, and a surface of the silica core is etched with metal silicate, the core shell silica particles prepared by: i) admixing an amount of silica particles in water with an amount of a base, wherein the base comprises a monovalent metal ion, to produce core shell silica particles, each core shell silica particle comprising a silica core, and a surface of the silica core etched with a silicate of the monovalent metal ion; and ii) reacting the core shell silica particles formed in step i) with a metal salt comprising a second metal ion, to form core shell silica particles comprising silicate of the second metal ion on the surface of the silica core.
Abstract:
The present invention provides an oral care composition comprising, by total weight of the composition: (a) 15 to 35 weight % calcium carbonate; (b) 0.5 to 2 weight % cellulose ether thickening agent; (c) 1 to 6 weight % clay thickening agent; and (d) at least 35 weight % water; wherein, when the composition comprises less than 28 weight % calcium carbonate and less than 4 weight % clay thickening agent, the cellulose ether thickening agent is present in an amount of greater than 1 weight %.
Abstract:
Described herein are nonaqueous oral care compositions comprising an orally acceptable vehicle, a whitening agent; and one or more gelling agents wherein the one or more gelling agents comprises a salt of a fatty acid; along with methods of making and using same.
Abstract:
Anhydrous oral care compositions and methods for the same are provided. The anhydrous oral care composition may include an orally acceptable vehicle, a peroxide whitening agent, and an abrasive system. The abrasive system may include at least one abrasive having a pellicle cleaning ratio (PCR) greater than or equal to 100.
Abstract:
This invention provides a method of inhibiting the formation of tartar on a tooth surface and/or removing tartar from a tooth surface, the method comprising contacting a tooth surface of the oral cavity with an oral care composition comprising core shell silica particles, wherein each core shell silica particle comprises a silica core, and a surface of the silica core etched with metal silicate.
Abstract:
This invention provides core shell silica particles, wherein each core shell silica particle comprises a silica core, and a surface of the silica core etched with group I metal silicate. These core shell silica particles have high surface charge density and anti-bacterial activity. Also provided are compositions comprising core shell silica particles, process of making the core shell silica particles and methods of reducing or inhibiting bacterial activity by administering the core shell silica particles or compositions thereof.
Abstract:
The present invention provides an oral care composition comprising, based on the total weight of the composition: (a) 15 to 24 weight % calcium carbonate; (b) 0.9 to 2.5 weight % cellulose ether thickening agent; (c) 7 to 10 weight % thickening silica; and (d) at least 40 weight % water.
Abstract:
Described herein are powder coated films comprising a polymer matrix designed for use in a toothpaste to indicate a color change during brushing, dentifrice compositions comprising the films, and methods of making and using the same.
Abstract:
The invention relates to personal care products containing multilayer films with decorative layers and may impart a noticeable color change. The invention is applicable in products including type toothpaste, soaps, and other products until diluted with water (or saliva).
