摘要:
The present invention provides tooth-whitening compositions comprising a bleaching agent and a baste amino acid, together with devices for application thereof, and methods of use therefor.
摘要:
The invention includes an oral care composition that reduces and/or eliminates the perception of tooth sensitivity. The composition includes an adherent material and silica particles having an average particle size of about 8 microns or less. The silica particles are present in the composition in an amount of about 5% by weight. Also included within the scope of the invention are related methods, such as methods of occluding a dentin tubule.
摘要:
Oral care compositions comprising: a) an oral care active; and b) an acrylic film forming polymer. In various embodiments, such polymers comprise monomeric units such as acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, acrylates, and combinations thereof. In one embodiment, the film forming polymer comprises a copolymer of a first monomeric unit selected from the group consisting of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, and combinations thereof, with a second monomeric unit selected from the group consisting of acrylates, acrylamides, acetates, and combinations thereof. In various embodiments, the polymer is a terpolymer comprising a combination of the second monomeric units. Preferably, the composition additionally comprises a lower alcohol, such as ethanol. In various embodiments, the oral care active comprises a whitening material, such as a peroxide.
摘要:
The invention provides a single phase whitening dentifrice that includes (i) a whitening agent selected from the group consisting of hydrogen peroxide, a bound peroxide and a solid peroxide (ii) an abrasive and (iii) a substantially anhydrous orally acceptable carrier, for example, polyethylene glycol. The bound peroxide may be hydrogen peroxide and a polymer and/or any peroxide compound and a porous cross-linked polymer, such as polymers of polyvinyl pyrrolidone, polyacrylates, a polymethacrylates, and a polyitaconates. The solid peroxide may be sodium perborate or urea peroxide. The invention also provides methods of whitening the tooth surfaces by contacting the surface with the composition.
摘要:
Tooth-imparting whiteness to fluids comprising a particulate whiteness-imparting particles such as hydroxyapatite and an organosiloxane polymer are disclosed. Methods of use of the fluids are also disclosed.
摘要:
A stable and efficacious antiplaque, anticalculus, and antigingivitis oral composition is provided having an antibacterial ingredient comprising one or more active compounds found in an extract of magnolia combined with an anticalculus system comprising tetrasodium pyrophosphate (TSPP) about 1 to about 2.5% and sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP) about 1 to about 10%. The oral composition can be in the form of a mouth rinse or dentifrice, including toothpaste, gels, powders, as well as confectionaries, lozenges, and the like. Methods of making and using the oral composition are also provided.
摘要:
A method for improving effectiveness of an oral care agent comprises preconditioning an oral surface by wiping the surface with an absorbent fabric having impregnated therein or coated thereon an orally acceptable preconditioning agent such as an activating agent for the oral care agent, wherein the wiping transfers an activating effective amount of the preconditioning agent from the fabric to the oral surface, and thereafter applying a composition comprising the oral care agent to the oral surface.
摘要:
A tooth whitening system comprising a dental tray having a surface operable to confront a tooth surface, and a tooth whitening composition comprising a whitening agent and a hydrophobic polymer carrier. The tooth whitening composition is preferably substantially non-water soluble. A tooth whitening kit is also provided using a dental tray and the tooth whitening composition comprising a whitening composition and a hydrophobic polymer carrier.
