Provided are methods of providing a benefit to the oral cavity by administering to the oral cavity a poorly-soluble calcium compound and subsequently introducing fluoride to the oral cavity.

Method of providing an oral care benefit using a poorly-soluble calcium compound and fluoride

A method of assessing and/or quantifying remineralization in a tooth model by exposing a tooth model to calcium and a calcium-binding fluorophore either sequentially or simultaneously under conditions sufficient to produce a remineralized/demineralized tooth model; exposing the remineralized/demineralized tooth model to a non-calcium binding fluorophore to produce an enhanced tooth model; and assessing and/or quantifying remineralization, demineralization, or both on the enhanced tooth model by determining the location and extent of calcium binding fluorophore and non-calcium binding fluorophore on the enhanced test tooth sample.

Method of visualizing and quantifying remineralization

Provided are methods of detecting tooth stain prevention and/or removal comprising the steps of providing pellicle-coated hydroxyapatite particles, contacting the particles with a first solution and then a second solution, wherein the first solution is either a test solution or a stain solution and the second solution is the other of said test solution or stain solution, separating from the resulting particles a liquid comprising stain introduced in the contacting step b), and measuring the UV-Vis absorbance of the separated liquid to determine the amount of stain in the liquid.

High-throughput method for detecting tooth stain prevention and removal

Provided are oral care compositions comprising one or more polyol solvents having a total Hansen Solubility Parameter (HSP) of from about 23 to 28, one or more non-anionic bioactive agents, and an aqueous phase, wherein the oral care composition is essentially free of alkyl sulfate surfactants, as well as method of using such compositions in the oral cavity.

Reduced-ethanol mouth rinse formulations

The invention relates generally to liquids such as mouth rinses for the prevention and elimination of bad breath as well as for the reduction of oral microorganisms responsible for the development of dental plaque and tooth decay. In particular, the present invention relates to a method of preparing non-alcohol or reduced alcohol mouth rinses effective at preventing the above-mentioned problems.

Methods of preparing non-alcohol bioactive essential oil mouth rinses

The present invention relates to oral compositions, comprising select polyethylene oxide-polypropylene oxide block copolymer surfactants. Methods for using the compositions are also disclosed.
