Described herein are zirconium oxychloride clusters comprising zirconium oxychloride and a basic amino acid. Oral care compositions comprising the same; and methods of making and using the same are also described.

Zirconium-based cluster as a dentin tubule occlusion agent

Film forming compositions and methods for occluding dentin tubules of teeth to treat dentinal hypersensitivity of the teeth are provided. The film forming compositions may include a hydrophobic copolymer, a rosin, and an orally acceptable solvent. The hydrophobic copolymer may include an acrylate/octylacrylamide copolymer, such as 2-propenoic acid, 2-methyl-, 2-methylpropyl ester, polymer with 2-propenoic acid and N-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)-2-propenamide. Methods for treating dentinal hypersensitivity may include contacting the film forming composition with surfaces of the teeth.

Oral care compositions and methods for the same

The application discloses dentifrice compositions comprising arginine together with fluoride, phosphate and pyrophosphate salts, in a dentifrice base with a calcium-free silica abrasive, which compositions provide enhanced remineralization, together with methods of using and of making these compositions.
