Described herein are oral care compositions comprising—in relevant part—an effective amount of inulin. Methods of making and using these compositions are also described.

Oral care compositions

The disclosure is directed to processes and methods of reducing bloating and breakage of containers and packaging that house oral care compositions. Also contemplated are products and formulations that are produced or obtained from the processes and methods described herein.

Processes and methods

Provided herein is a method for removing a chemical stain from a dental surface or inhibiting chemical staining of a dental surface, comprising contacting the dental surface with an oral care composition comprising zinc phosphate and an orally acceptable carrier.

Dental stain removal and prevention

An oral care composition is disclosed. The composition comprises zinc phosphate and a silicate compound comprising a metallic element that in cationic form is capable of reducing tooth enamel erosion. The zinc phosphate is added to the oral care composition as a preformed salt. Methods of administering the oral care compositions to subjects in need thereof are also disclosed.

Oral care compositions and methods of using the compositions

An oral care composition comprising zinc phosphate and stannous fluoride.

Described herein are processes for preparing an alcohol-free aqueous liquid toothpaste composition which is usable as a mouthwash, the liquid toothpaste being an oil-in-water emulsion with a clear appearance.

Oral care composition and processes for preparing same

The invention encompasses liquid cleaning compositions, for example, dish washing liquids, and methods of their manufacture and use, which possess enhanced cleaning ability. The cleaning compositions of the invention include acidic light duty liquid cleaning compositions with low toxicity and antibacterial efficacy on surfaces, for example, hard surfaces.

Light duty liquid cleaning compositions and methods of manufacture and use thereof

Light duty liquid cleaning compositions and methods of manufacture and use thereof comprising organic acids

A light duty liquid cleaning composition comprising at least one ammonium or metal salt of a C-Clinear alkyl benzene sulfonate surfactant, at least one ammonium or metal salt of an ethoxylated C-Calkyl ether sulfate surfactant having 1 to 30 moles of ethylene oxide, and at least one betaine surfactant; wherein (a) a total amount of surfactant in the composition is at least 30 weight %, (b) the composition has a pH less than 7 and a viscosity of less than 75 cPs measured at 25&#xb0; C., (c) if a magnesium salt of a C-Clinear alkyl benzene sulfonate surfactant is present in the composition, it is present in an amount of 0.1 to less than 3 or greater than 16% by weight of the composition, and (d) the composition does not contain an inorganic magnesium salt.

Liquid cleaning composition comprising an anionic/betaine surfactant mixture having low viscosity

A light duty liquid cleaning composition comprising at least one ammonium or metal salt of a C-Clinear alkyl benzene sulfonate surfactant, at least one ammonium or metal salt of an ethoxylated C-Calkyl ether sulfate surfactant having 1 to 30 moles of ethylene oxide, and at least one betaine surfactant; wherein (a) a total amount of surfactant in the composition is at least 30 weight %, (b) the composition has a pH less than 7 and a viscosity of less than 75 cPs measured at 25&#xb0; C. (c) if a magnesium salt of a C-Clinear alkyl benzene sulfonate surfactant is present in the composition, it is present in an amount of 0.1 to less than 3 or greater than 16% by weight of the composition, and (d) the composition does not contain an inorganic magnesium

An antibacterial liquid dish cleaning composition with desirable cleansing properties comprising a C ethoxylated alkyl ether sulfate, two anionic surfactant, a betaine surfactant, a citric or lactic acid, at least one polyethylene glycol, an antibacterial agent and water.
