Abstract:
Described herein are oral care compositions comprising an orally acceptable carrier; and a film, wherein said film comprises an odor controlling active; a mucoadhesive polymer; a release-rate modulating polymer; a polymeric base; and optionally a flavorant; and wherein said film controls release of said odor controlling active.
Abstract:
This invention relates to oral care composition, methods of use and methods of manufacture thereof including a single-tube, non-aqueous dentifrice whitening composition containing at least an enzyme and a substrate.
Abstract:
Described herein are water- stable films for use in aqueous compositions comprising one or more cellulosic polymers present in an amount from about 10 to about 50% of the film's dry weight, polyvinyl acetate present in an amount from about 8 to about 25% of the film's dry weight and metal particles, compositions for oral cavity comprising the films, and methods of making and using the same
Abstract:
Described herein are compositions for topical use comprising an antibacterially effective concentration of a gallate or gallamide compound which is a polysubstituted cycloalkyl or heterocycloalkyl wherein the substituents are selected from hydroxy, hydroxymethyl, fluoro, chloro, amino, nitro, or a moiety of formula -X-(CO)-(3,4,5-trihydroxyphenyl), wherein X is selected from O and NH, provided that the substituents comprise at least two moieties of formula -X-(CO)-(3,4,5-trihydroxyphenyl) attached to adjacent carbons in free or in orally or topically acceptable salt form, as well as methods of making and using the same.
Abstract:
An oral care composition having enhanced flavor release comprising an orally acceptable carrier containing a first flavor and a multilayer film for extended or delayed flavor release, the multilayer film including at least a center layer containing a second flavor, the center layer positioned between two outer surface layers, each surface layer including a release modulating agent, the first and second flavor being the same or different. The film is adapted to adhere to an oral cavity surface and the outer surface layers may comprise a mucoadhesive polymer, e.g. carboxy polymethylene, polycarbophil or polyvinyl pyrrolidone, and a film forming polymer, eg. hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose (HPMC). Suitable release modulating agents include HPMC and polyvinyl acetate. The carrier may be a toothpaste or mouthwash.
