A denture cream for cleaning dentures and removable dental prostheses comprising a peroxide stabilized against chemical degradation by a combination of a bicarbonate and a phosphate, such as an alkali monofluorophosphate.

Stable peroxide denture paste

An oral composition for treatment of hypersensitive teeth in which the salty taste of the desensitizing salt, such as a potassium or strontium salt, is masked by baking soda, sodium bicarbonate.

Taste masked desensitizing compositions

A method for treating dentinal hypersensitivity by administering a therapeutic amount of an alginate to a hypersensitive tooth.

Treatment for dentinal hypersensitivity

Phosphate-free oral compositions containing cationically charged colloids are effective to treat tooth hypersensitivity.

Relief of dentinal hypersensitivity by submicron particles

A solid dosage form for relieving xerostomia symptoms comprising a lubricating polymer comprising polyethylene oxide and a sialogogue in a pharmaceutically acceptable, substantially non-cariogenic, carrier.

Solid form xerostomia product

Omega-3, 20-22 carbon atom, hexa- or penta-unsaturated fatty acids are used in the treatment of periodontal disease.

Treatment of periodontal disease

Synergistic compositions comprising an antioxidant and an arylpropionic, non-steroidal anti-imflammatory drug used to treat certain diseases are disclosed. The compositions inhibit production of arachidonic acid cascade end-products which have been implicated as causes of tissue-destruction in periodontal disease. The compositions are administered in combination with a carrier, which may be a mucosal-tenacious polymer selected from the groups of semi-solid pastes, gels, ointments, liquids or films.

Compositions and method for the treatment of disease

A toothpaste having high polishing and cleaning properties suitable for use in the removal of coffee and tea stains comprises about 10-35% of an abrasive system combined with a non-toxic paste, said abrasive system comprising a combination of anhydrous aluminum silicate and diatomaceous silica in a ratio of about 0.5:1-1.5:1, said toothpaste having a radioactive dentin abrasion index not in excess of about 150. The system provides excellent fluoride stability during storage and does not interfere with fluoride bioavailability.

Stain removal toothpaste

An effervescent tablet is produced by preparing a powdered tabletable composition containing stannous fluoride and malic acid and an alkali metal bicarbonate in a weight ratio of about 3:2 as the effervescent couple.
