The invention relates to a tooth cleaning kit comprising at least one set of chewing gum pieces for sequentially or simultaneously chewing, wherein the individual set comprises at least one first chewing gum piece having a first formulation and at least one second chewing gum piece having a second formulation, which second formulation is different from said first formulation, and at least one of said first formulation and said second formulation comprises an anti-gingivitis agent.

Tooth cleaning kit comprising at least one set of chewing gum pieces

The invention relates to a chewing gum possessing tooth cleaning effects, excluding the tooth brush abrasive effect, which chewing gum when chewed on a daily basis as a tooth cleaning agent is capable of replacing the daily tooth brushing, whereby abrasive cleaning damages on teeth side surfaces and gingiva are avoided.

Chewing gum possessing tooth cleaning effect and a teeth cleaning method

The present invention relates to a compressed chewing gum tablet possessing tooth brush properties, which compressed chewing gum tablet comprises at least gum base and a) at least one whitening agent, b) at least one fresh-breath agent, c) at least one anti-plaque agent, d) at least one anti-gingivitis agent, e) at least one re-mineralization agent, and f) optionally at least one anti-calculus agent, wherein the compressed chewing gum tablet at least partly is manufactured from a compressed mixture of granules and agents.

Compressed chewing gum tablet

The invention relates to a method for producing chewing gum granules. The method comprises at least the steps of feeding a gum composition including at least gum base into an extruder (), pressurizing the gum composition in the extruder, extruding the gum composition through a die plate (), and cutting the extruded gum composition in a liquid filled chamber (). Flavor is added to the composition in the extruder prior to the granulation into cooling liquid. The temperature and pressure of the flavored gum composition is controlled so that the temperature is below 70&#xb0; C. when the pressure is in the range from 1 to 5 hPa.

Method for producing chewing gum granules, a gum composition extruder and granulating system, and a chewing gum products

The invention relates to a method for producing chewing gum granules. The method comprises at least the steps of feeding a gum composition including at least gum base into an extruder (), pressurizing the gum composition in the extruder, extruding the gum composition through a die plate (), and cutting the extruded gum composition in a liquid filled chamber (). The extruded gum composition comprises at least 71% Wt. gum base and the cut granules are included in compressed gum tablets. The invention further relates to a chewing gum product, and to a chewing gum granulating system.

Method for producing chewing gum granules and compressed gum products, and a chewing gum granulating system

The invention relates to a method for producing chewing gum granules. The method comprises at least the steps of feeding a gum composition including at least gum base into an extruder (), pressurizing the gum composition in the extruder, extruding the gum composition through a die plate (), and cutting the extruded gum composition in a liquid filled chamber () so that the cut gum granules have weights per granule in the range of 0.0001 g to 0.008 g.
