Abstract:
A solid oral care composition, e.g., a tablet or powder, comprising an alkali metal peroxymonosulfate as an effective bleaching agent for the bleaching of tenacious tooth stains, such as tobacco stains and coffee stains.
Abstract:
Described herein are whitening compositions comprising a substantially anhydrous or non-aqueous oral care composition comprising: a peroxide source comprising hydrogen peroxide bound to cross-linked polyvinylpyrrolidone (cPVP) in the amount effective to provide from 0.01% to 5.5% of hydrogen peroxide, by weight of the composition; a hydrophobic component comprising a silicone polymer; sodium tripolyphosphate; and optionally a dental surface adhesion enhancing agent. Methods of making and using these compositions are also described herein.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to core shell silica particles, wherein each core shell silica particle comprises a silica core, and a surface of the silica core is etched with metal silicate, the core shell silica particles prepared by: i) admixing an amount of silica particles in water with an amount of a base, wherein the base comprises a monovalent metal ion, to produce core shell silica particles, each core shell silica particle comprising a silica core, and a surface of the silica core etched with a silicate of the mono-valent metal ion; and ii) reacting the core shell silica particles formed in step i) with a metal salt comprising a second metal ion, to form core shell silica particles comprising silicate of the second metal ion on the surface of the silica core.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a tooth whitening oral care composition comprising: (i) a dye having a blue to blue-violet color with a hue angle in the CIELAB system ranging from 200 to 320 degrees; (ii) core shell silica particles, wherein each core shell silica particle comprises a silica core, and a surface of the silica core is etched with metal silicate; (iii) an orally acceptable carrier vehicle comprising a non-aqueous solvent; and wherein the composition comprises water in an amount of from 3 weight % to 30 weight %.
Abstract:
Aspects of the invention are directed to oral care compositions having enhanced peroxide stability. In accordance with some aspects, provided is an oral care composition having a polyol; a whitening agent comprising a peroxide; a thickening agent; and an abrasive system comprising insoluble phosphate salts, wherein the oral care composition contains less than about 5 wt. % of water, and all weight percentages are based on the total weight of the oral care composition.
Abstract:
Described herein are oral care compositions comprising: from about 35 wt. % to about 85 wt. % of an anhydrous solvent system (e.g., 35 wt. % to about 75 wt. %); from about 0.02 wt. % to about 30 wt. % of a peroxide solution comprising: from about 0.01 wt. % to about 15 wt. % of hydrogen peroxide, and from about 0.01 wt. % to about 15 wt. % of water; from about 1 wt. % to about 20 wt. % of a thickening system; wherein the oral care composition has a total water content of less than about 30 wt. %; and wherein all weight percentages are based on the total weight of the oral care composition. Methods of making and using these compositions are also described herein.
Abstract:
Described herein are nonaqueous oral care compositions comprising an orally acceptable vehicle, a whitening agent; and one or more gelling agents wherein the one or more gelling agents comprises a salt of a fatty acid; along with methods of making and using same.

Abstract:
An oral treatment device for dispensing an oral treatment composition onto a user's teeth. The oral treatment device may include a storage and delivery component and an applicator component. The storage and delivery component may include a body having a reservoir, a frangible capsule containing the oral treatment composition located in the reservoir, and a delivery member. The applicator component may include a pad portion formed of a liquid absorbing material. The applicator component may be alterable between an attached state whereby the delivery member is fluidly coupled to the pad portion and a detached state whereby the applicator component is detached from the storage and delivery component and can be placed into contact with the user's teeth. The frangible capsule may be in a sealed state until broken by a user at which point the oral treatment composition may flow into the pad portion of the applicator component.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are oral care compositions comprising an oral care composition comprising a peroxide whitening complex present in an amount to provide from about 3.0% to about 8% of hydrogen peroxide by weight of the composition; a block copolymer of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide in an amount from about 0.01% to about 8% by weight of the composition; a stearate in an amount from about 0.3% to about 5% by weight of the composition; and a humectant in an amount from about 60% to about 90% by weight of the composition. Methods of making and using the oral care compositions are also provided.
