Abstract:
The application discloses dentifrice compositions comprising arginine together with fluoride, phosphate and pyrophosphate salts, in a dentifrice base with a calcium-free silica abrasive, which compositions provide enhanced remineralization, together with 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 from about 0.75 wt.% to about 2 wt.% of a chelating system; along with methods of making and using same.
Abstract:
Disclosed are oral care compositions comprising an orally acceptable vehicle, a basic amino acid in free or salt form, particles of precipitated calcium carbonate, a source of zinc ions, and a surfactant system selected from at least one of a poloxamer nonionic surfactant and a betaine zwitterionic surfactant or a mixture thereof.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are oral care compositions that may include, in certain aspects, from about 40 wt.% to about 75 wt.% of a humectant; from about 5 wt.% to about 25 wt.% of an abrasive system; from about 0.3 wt.% to about 1 wt.% of a thickening system; and particles having a refractive index of from about 1.0 to about 2.5; wherein the composition is substantially free of a titanium containing material. Methods of making and using the oral care compositions are also provided.
Abstract:
This invention relates to oral care compositions comprising a basic amino acid or salt thereof, a zinc source, and a preservative, as well as to methods of using and of making these compositions.
Abstract:
A method of producing arginine bicarbonate is provided including reacting an arginine slurry with a source of carbon dioxide gas under elevated temperature and low pressure to form a solution of at least 50% arginine bicarbonate, and recovering arginine bicarbonate from the solution.
Abstract:
An oral care compositions comprises a water-soluble calcium salt, a fluoride-providing agent, and a chelating agent. Methods of treating or preventing dental caries are also provided.
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.
