A two component effervescent dentifrice composition, having a first alkali metal bicarbonate containing component which also contains a naturally occurring alkyl vanillyamide such as capsaicin and a second acid-containing dentifrice component; the first and second components being separated prior to use, whereupon when combined upon application to the teeth the dentifrice provides an enhanced sensory signal.

A method for forming a striped dentifrice wherein a first dentifrice which appears unstriped when stored in a container having sidewalls at least a portion of which is transparent, is transformed into a striped dentifrice upon extrusion from the container, which method comprises storing the first dentifrice in the container provided with discharge means and striping means within the discharge means, sequentially filling the container with a striping dentifrice having a color which distinguishes the striping dentifrice from the first dentifrice, the striping dentifrice being stored in an area of the container separate from the first dentifrice, followed by filling the container with the first dentifrice, applying pressure on the dentifrices to cause the striping dentifrice to be applied to the first dentifrice within the container area in which the second dentifrice is stored and be simultaneously extruded together from the container, so that upon extrusion, the extruded dentifrice appears to have been magically transformed into a striped body.

Dentifrice

A composition and method is disclosed for fluoridating teeth using a two component dentifrice system in which the first component is stable, semi-solid, extrudable dentifrice composition containing a fluoride ion releasable hydrolyzable complex fluoride compound such as sodium fluorosilicate, in an aqueous vehicle in which a carrageenan gum having major kappa and lambda forms as the primary thickening agent and the abrasive is a silica providing an acid pH when slurried with water, and the second component is a semi-solid, extrudable dentifrice composition containing a calcium ion releasable compound and the abrasive and carrageenan gum in an aqueous vehicle. The first and second dentifrice compounds are maintained separate from the other until mixed for application to teeth.

A method is disclosed for fluoridating teeth using a two component dentifrice system in which the first component is stable, semi-solid, extrudable dentifrice composition containing a fluoride ion releasable hydrolyzable complex fluoride compound such as sodium fluorosilicate, in an aqueous vehicle in which xanthan gum is the major thickening agent and glycerin, sorbitol or mixtures thereof is the humectant, and the second component is a semi-solid, extrudable dentifrice composition containing a calcium ion releasable compound and an abrasive in an aqueous vehicle containing xanthan gum as the major thickener and glycerin, sorbitol or mixtures thereof as the humectant. The first and second dentifrice compounds are maintained separate from the other until mixed for application to teeth.

A visually clear gel dentifrice comprising a polishing agent having a refractive index of about 1.41 to 1.47, a substantially water-insoluble noncationic antibacterial agent, an aqueous water-humectant liquid vehicle having a refractive index with about 0.02 refractive index units of the refractive index of the polishing agent and surfactant which is a sulfated polyoxyethylene alcohol sodium or potassium salt or a weight mixture of at least 3:1 to sodium or potassium lauryl sulfate with the sulfated polyoxyethylene alcohol or a weight mixture of about 1:3 to about 3:1 of sodium potassium lauryl sulfate with an N-acyl-N-alkyl taurate sodium or potassium salt. The visually clear systems have reduced formation of surfactant crystals when subject to cool temperature.
