Disclosed are oral compositions and methods for reducing plaque in a human or lower animal subject comprising applying to the teeth of the subject an oral composition comprising one or more hydrophobic solvents having one or more characteristics selected from the group consisting of a hydrogen bonding parameter of less than about 7.0 and a water solubility of less than about 10%; one or more non-polymeric surfactants wherein the weight ratio of hydrophobic solvent to non-polymeric surfactant is from about 30:1 to about 1:2; and one or more aqueous carriers; wherein the oral composition is in the form of a toothpaste or mouthrinse, is non-ingestible, and has a pH of from about 5.0 to about 9.5.

Hydrophobic agents and non-polymeric surfactants use in oral care

Disclosed are oral compositions and methods for reducing plaque in a human or lower animal subject comprising applying to the teeth of the subject one or more hydrophobic solvents having one or more characteristics selected from the group consisting of a hydrogen bonding parameter of less than about 7.0 and a water solubility of less than about 10%; one or more polymeric surfactants wherein the weight ratio of hydrophobic solvent to polymeric surfactant is from about 10:1 to about 1:20; and one or more aqueous carriers; wherein the oral composition is in the form of a toothpaste or mouthrinse, is non-ingestible, and has a pH of from about 5.0 to about 9.5.

Hydrophobic agents and polymeric surfactants

Disclosed are oral compositions comprising a nonionic surfactant and/or amphoteric surfactant, an anionic surfactant, free pyrophosphate ions or tetrasodium pyrophosphate, free fluoride ions, and one or more aqueous carriers. The compositions may also contain an alkali metal bicarbonate salt and xylitol.

Tartar control oral compositions

Disclosed are oral compositions such as toothpastes, mouth-rinses, liquid dentifrices, lozenges and gums containing copper bis-glycinate.

A method for preparing a free flowing perfume capsule composition with enhanced performance and stability from slurries containing perfume capsules is described. A process comprising removing water from the slurry to form a wet cake, combining silicone dioxide or aluminosilicate to the wet cake to fluidize the wet cake and removing additional water from the fluidized wet cake to form free flowing perfume capsules is preferred.
