An oral care composition having a soluble zinc polyphosphate complex made by combining ingredients including an inorganic zinc salt, and a plurality of long chain polyphosphates having 6 or more phosphate polymer units, the relative amount of inorganic zinc salt and long chain polyphosphates providing a phosphorus to zinc mole ratio of at least 6:1. Further provided is a method of treating a subject suffering from dentinal sensitivity applying the oral care composition to the teeth and gums of the subject.

Zinc phosphate complex for oral care

A soluble zinc polyphosphate complex made by combining ingredients which include an inorganic zinc salt and a plurality of long chain polyphosphates having 6 or more phosphate polymer units, the relative amount of inorganic zinc salt and long chain polyphosphates providing a phosphorus to zinc mole ratio of at least 6:1. Further provided is a method of making this soluble zinc polyphosphate.

Zinc phosphate complex

An oral care composition having a soluble zinc polyphosphate complex made by combining ingredients including a zinc salt, a plurality of long chain polyphosphates having 6 or more phosphate polymer units, and a solvent, the relative amount of organic zinc salt and long chain polyphosphates provides a phosphorus to zinc mole ratio of at least 6:1. Further provided is a method of treating a subject suffering from dentinal sensitivity applying the oral care composition to the teeth and gums of the subject.

A soluble zinc polyphosphate complex made by combining ingredients which include an organic zinc salt and a plurality of long chain polyphosphates having 6 or more phosphate polymer units, the organic zinc salt and long chain polyphosphates being mixed in amounts that provide a phosphorus to zinc mole ratio of 15:1 to about 55:1. Further provided is a method of making this soluble zinc polyphosphate.

A personal care composition, comprising a soluble zinc polyphosphate complex made by combining ingredients comprising an inorganic zinc salt, a plurality of long chain polyphosphates having 6 or more phosphate polymer units, and an aqueous solvent; wherein the relative amount of inorganic zinc salt and long chain polyphosphates provides a phosphorus to zinc mole ratio of at least 6:1. Also, a method of using the composition for reducing at least one of perspiration or body odor.
