Abstract:
A method of treating gingivitis comprises applying a toothpaste comprising at least 5% sodium chloride in a toothpaste base comprising a non-silica calcium carbonate abrasive and humectant, to the oral surfaces, e.g., the teeth and gums, of a patient in need thereof, together with compositions for use therefor.
Abstract:
An oral care composition comprises (a) arginine or lysine; (b) zinc citrate and zinc oxide; (c) fluoride source; and (d) a silica abrasive which exhibits an acid pH when measured as an aqueous slurry. The composition is used in the manufacture of a product for application to the oral cavity of a subject in need thereof to improve oral health.
