A peroxide product is provided. The peroxide product includes a package having a headspace, a substrate disposed within the package, and a thin layer of a composition having a peroxide active and a polyol, wherein the thin layer is disposed adjacent the substrate. The peroxide product also includes at least one means for increasing the stability of the peroxide active of the composition. The thin layer of the composition has at least about 43% of its original concentration of the peroxide active at twelve months after manufacture when stored at about 25&#xb0; C. and in the absence of light.

Structures and compositions increasing the stability of peroxide actives

The present invention relates to a product comprising tooth whitening substance which comprises a high concentration of water, a peroxide, a gelling agent, and carrier materials. The tooth whitening substance will remain stable when stored as a thin layer. The present invention also relates to a method of storage of a tooth whitening substance and a method producing a stable thin layer of tooth whitening substance on a strip of material. Additionally, the present invention relates to the benefits obtained from the tooth whitening composition.

Tooth whitening substance

The present invention relates to an oral composition comprising a soluble fluoride ion source, tetrasodium pyrophosphate, calcium peroxide, one or more nonionic surfactants and/or amphoteric surfactants, and one or more aqueous carriers; wherein the oral composition has a neat pH of from about 9.0 to about 10.5 and a total water content of from about 5% to about 20%. The invention may also include polyethylene glycol, an alkali metal bicarbonate salt, and xylitol.

Oral compositions containing fluoride, pyrophosphate, peroxide, and

The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing predominately undissolved pyrophosphate and calcium peroxide compositions comprising the steps of: (a) preparing a mixture of a soluble fluoride ion source and one or more aqueous carrier materials; (b) adding tetrasodium pyrophosphate and calcium peroxide, all at once or in portions, under conditions wherein less than about 20% of the total pyrophosphate and calcium peroxide are dissolved in the mixture, and wherein any further remaining aqueous carrier materials not added to the mixtures during step (a) are added in whole or in part in step (b) or thereafter, either by themselves or with any remaining amount of the tetrasodium pyrophosphate or calcium peroxide under conditions such that less then about 20% of the total pyrophosphate and calcium peroxide are dissolved in the mixture; and (c) heating the mixture.
