Abstract:
This invention relates to oral care compositions comprising arginine or lysine, zinc citrate and zinc oxide, fluoride source, and a silica abrasive which exhibits an acid pH when measured as an aqueous slurry as well as to methods of using and of making these compositions.
Abstract:
Described herein are oral care compositions comprising a basic amino acid; a combination of zinc ion sources; and a thickening system comprising a nonionic cellulose ether having a viscosity, measured at 2% in water at 25° C., of 4500 to 7500 cps; and a polysaccharide gum; along with methods of making and using same.

Abstract:
Disclosed is an in vitro oral biofilm model of interdental spaces including: a support, and a plurality of substratum pairs attached to the support, wherein an oral biofilm is capable of forming on the substratum pairs, wherein the substratum pairs each include a first member and a second member, and wherein the first member and the second member of each substratum pair are arranged to form a space interval between the first member and second member. Methods for assessing the formation of oral biofilms using the in vitro oral biofilm model and methods for testing agents, such as oral compositions, on biofilm reduction using the present model are also provided.
