    Abstract: A substantially anhydrous thickener system in the form of a gel for use in oral care compositions comprising: carboxymethyl cellulose or its salts thereof, a chelating agent, and hydroxyethyl cellulose, in a solvent system, wherein the thickener system is heated to a temperature ranging from about 70° C. to about 120° C. to form the gel. A method of preparing the thickener system for use in oral care compositions comprises the steps of: a) charging a mixture of hydroxyethyl cellulose and carboxymethyl cellulose into a reaction container, b) dissolving the mixture of a) in a solvent system, c) charging a chelating agent into b), and d) heating the resultant of c) to a temperature of 70°-120° C. for at least about 10 minutes.
