Disclosed herein are tooth whitening compositions comprising at least one hydrophobic polymer carrier; fumed silica; sorbitan sebacate behenate polymer; and at least one whitening agent, wherein the tooth whitening composition has a structural parameter such that G'/G&#x2033; is greater than or equal to about 1. Also disclosed herein are methods of making a tooth whitening composition and methods of whitening the surface of a tooth.

Whitening systems for hydrophobic whitening gels

The present invention provides mouthwash or mouthrinse compositions comprising one or more structuring agents selected from: a colloidal gum, a cellulosic polymer, an acrylate polymer, or a clay or fine particulate, and an orally acceptable aqueous carrier. In some embodiments, the total concentration of the one or more structuring agents is less than 5%, by weight, of the composition.

Fluid compositions comprising a structuring agent

Disclosed herein are non-aqueous dentifrice compositions comprising (i) a whitening complex comprising crosslinked polyvinylpyrrolidone complexed with hydrogen peroxide; (ii) an off-gas reducing agent selected from sodium sulfate, magnesium sulfate, citric acid and clay; and (iii) an orally acceptable carrier. Methods of making and using the compositions are also provided.

Oral care compositions and methods of use

Described herein are oral care whitening compositions comprising a non-aqueous phase comprising a peroxysulfate whitening agent, a hydrophobic base and at least one hydrophilic polymer, and optionally an aqueous phase comprising at least one hydrophilic polymer. Methods of making and using these compositions are also described herein.

Oral care whitening compositions

Disclosed is a method of manufacturing a fluid gel, the method comprising adding metal cations to the gellant dispersion while retaining the pH at no greater than 3; and adding a pH modifying agent to the gellant dispersion to increase the pH of the gellant dispersion to greater than 3.

Manufacturing processes for gellan gum-based fluid gels

Provided is an oral care composition comprising a phosphate/acrylate co-polymer and an orally acceptable carrier and methods of using the same.

Oral care compositions and methods

Provided is an oral care composition comprising a phosphate/acrylate co-polymer, a whitening agent and an orally acceptable carrier and methods of using the same.

Disclosed herein are oral care compositions comprising an orally acceptable vehicle, calcium carbonate and a preservative system comprising benzyl alcohol, benzoic acid or a salt of benzoic acid; and an alkylene glycol.

Oral care compositions comprising calcium carbonate and a preservative system based on benzyl alcohol or benzoic acid, and an alkylene glycol

This application is directed to a fast method of quantitatively and qualitatively validating the amount of silicone adhesive in a composition comprising silicone adhesive and silicone polymer which comprises of testing a sample of the composition with near IR or mid IR spectroscopy. The method can be extended to analyzing the amount of silicone adhesive in an oral care composition.

Fast quantitative and qualitative analysis of silicone adhesive

Described herein are oral care compositions comprising an effective amount of an enzyme cocktail, wherein the enzyme cocktail comprises an alkaline protease and a second enzyme selected from cellulose, &#x3b1;-glucanase, and combinations thereof, in an orally acceptable carrier, together with methods of making and using the same.

Oral care compositions

This invention relates to a dual phase mouthwash comprising a hydrophilic phase, a hydrophobic phase, and a hydrotrope, wherein the hydrophilic phase comprises an effective amount of a preservative selected from methylisothiazolinone, sodium benzoate, potassium sorbate, and combinations thereof, as well as to methods of using and of making such compositions.

Oral care product and methods of use and manufacture thereof

This invention relates to a mouthwash comprising an aqueous solution of an effective amount of a basic amino acid, in free or salt form together with an effective amount of a preservative selected from methylisothiazolinone (MIT), benzyl alcohol, phenoxyethanol, and combinations thereof; as well as to methods of using and of making such compositions.

Described herein are whitening compositions comprising a peroxide source, and an adhesion system comprising a hydrophobic component comprising a silicone adhesive; and a dental surface adhesion enhancing agent, which are physically stable and effectively provide whitening. Methods of making and using these compositions are also described herein.
