Color indicating chewing gum compositions comprising one or more color compounds are provided. The compositions demonstrate a visual color or shade change from start of chewing to the end of chewing and provide oral health benefits. Methods of producing a color changing chewing gum are also provided.

Color indicating formulations

The present disclosure is directed to confectionery products, such as compressed mint tablets, that comprise menthol and eucalyptol. In certain embodiments, the menthol is encapsulated. The confectionery products deliver a strong initial cooling impact, and have extended storage stability in high humidity environments.

Confectionery products with intense initial cooling and extended stability at a high humidity environment

Natural cooling formulations which include one or more natural cooling compounds and are suitable for use in consumer products are provided. Natural cooling compounds include natural isopulegol, natural menthyl lactate, natural menthyl succinate, natural menthol and combinations thereof. The disclosed formulations provide enhanced cooling attributes.

Natural cooling formulations

Breath freshening formulations comprising licorice extract and menthol are provided. The breath freshening formulations can provide breath freshening in a confectionary product, through the synergy between licorice extract and menthol. Methods of reducing sulfurous compounds over time via a chewy confectionary product are also provided.

Licorice extract synergy with menthol for breath freshening in a confectionary product

Combinations of a zinc salt and an isothiocyanate are provided, and more particularly to a consumer acceptable oral composition containing such combination which is effective in the reduction of volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs).

Compositions containing zinc salts and isothiocyanates for reduction of oral volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs)

The present disclosure relates generally to oral compositions and methods for oral cleansing and reducing salivary bacteria, and more particularly, to oral compositions comprising a combination of magnolia bark extract (MBE) and L-arginine, N&#x3b1;-lauroyl ethyl ester (LAE). The oral compositions are useful for improving oral health, including freshening breath and reducing total salivary bacteria.

Synergistic antibacterial effects of magnolia bark extract and L-arginine, N-lauroyl ethyl ester on salivary bacteria

The present disclosure relates generally to oral compositions and methods for inhibiting the formation of plaque biofilm by salivary bacteria, and more particularly, to oral compositions comprising a combination of magnolia bark extract (MBE) and L-arginine, N-lauroyl ethyl ester (LAE). The oral compositions are useful for improving oral health, including inhibiting the formation of plaque biofilm by salivary bacteria and reducing plaque adherence to teeth.

A chewing gum product containing a cross-linked gelatin matrix gum base and a bulking agent of erythritol, mannitol, or mixtures thereof. The cross-linked gelatin matrix can make up all or a portion of the gum base and still be comparable to that of a traditional elastomeric chewing gum product in its elasticity, cohesiveness, and feel in the mouth. The chewing gum of the present invention is also more environmentally friendly because it can be digestible and partially replace the need for petroleum-derived elastomers.

An oral composition contains an enhanced antibacterial effective amount of an antioxidant and an extract of

Oral compositions containing enhanced antibacterial combinations of antioxidants and extracts of magnolia

Oral compositions containing a combination of antioxidants consisting of a water soluble vitamin, a water insoluble vitamin, a tea extract and gallic acid are used to maintain a beneficial amount of such antioxidants in a consumers bloodstream for maintenance and protection of healthy skin. The unique combination of ingredients provides a decrease in oxidative stress when exposed to UVB radiation, thereby promoting healthy skin.

Oral compositions for skin benefits

An oral composition for oral cleansing, breath freshening, and anti-microbial benefits includes Magnolia Bark Extract in combination with a surface active agent. The effectiveness of Magnolia Bark Extract in inhibiting biofilm formation in the oral cavity is increased by a synergistic combination of the Magnolia Bark Extract with a surface active agent in an oral cavity delivery agent, such as chewing gum, a confectionary, a lozenge, a compressed tablet, and an edible film.

Breath freshening and oral cleansing product with magnolia bark extract in combination with surface active agents

A vehicle and a method for oral care that includes Magnolia Bark Extract in combination with a surface active agent. The effectiveness of Magnolia Bark Extract in inhibiting biofilm formation in the oral cavity is increased by a synergistic combination of the Magnolia Bark Extract with a surface active agent in an oral cavity delivery agent, such as spray, mouthwash, toothpaste, dental cleaner, gel, dental floss, toothpick, dentifrice, and a denture cleaner.

Vehicles for oral care with magnolia bark extract

A chewable oral composition for oral cleansing, breath freshening, and antimicrobial benefits includes fast release Magnolia Bark Extract in combination with a surface active agent. The effectiveness of Magnolia Bark Extract in inhibiting biofilm formation in the oral cavity is increased by a synergistic combination of the rapidly released Magnolia Bark Extract with a surface active agent in a chewable oral cavity delivery agent, such as chewing gum, chewable candy, and a soft tablet. The fast release of the antimicrobial agents is effectuated by encapsulation or coating of the oral cavity delivery agent.
