Abstract:
Oral care compositions comprising: (a) a peroxide complex comprising a peroxide component and an N-vinyl heterocyclic polymer (e.g., poly-N-vinyl polylactam, or poly-N-vinyl-polyimide); (b) a whitening agent (e.g., hydrogen peroxide); and (c) an orally acceptable carrier. In one embodiment, the carrier comprises a film forming material. Methods are also provided for making an oral care composition comprising: (a) mixing a whitening agent, silicone adhesive and carrier fluid to form a homogenous mixture; (b) adding a peroxide complex to said homogenous mixture, wherein said complex comprises hydrogen peroxide and an N-vinyl heterocyclic polymer; and (c) mixing under vacuum.
Abstract:
Described herein are oral care compositions comprising a thickening system comprising a first thickening agent and a second thickening agent, wherein the first thickening agent comprises greater than 15 wt % of the mixture of the first and second thickening agents in the thickening system.
Abstract:
Provided is a single phase oral care composition having a whitening agent; a first abrasive selected from calcium pyrophosphate, calcium carbonate, and dicalcium phosphate; a second abrasive that may include sodium metaphosphate; an anticalculus agent; and a substantially anhydrous carrier that may include an ethylene oxide/propylene oxide copolymer. In the composition, a wt % of the second abrasive is equal to or greater than a wt % of the first abrasive.
Abstract:
Described herein are oral care compositions comprising a crosslinked polyvinylpyrrolidone complexed with hydrogen peroxide, together with a fatty amphiphile; including some embodiments which further comprise a calcium abrasive.
Abstract:
Described herein are oral care compositions comprising (i) a peroxide whitening agent, and (ii) an abrasive in the form of particles, wherein the particles are pre-coated with a coating layer composed of a coating material selected from at least one substantially saturated C12-C30 fatty acid, at least one monosaturated C12-C30 fatty acid, and at least one silicone polymer, or any mixture of two or more thereof.
Abstract:
Anhydrous oral care compositions and methods for preventing phase separation in the anhydrous oral care composition are disclosed. The oral care composition may include an orally acceptable vehicle, a thickening system, and a whitening agent. The orally acceptable vehicle may include propylene glycol, and the thickening system may include a polymeric thickener. The polymeric thickener may be or include a copolymer of 2-acrylamidomethylpropanesulphonic acid or a salt thereof.
