An oral care composition including a hydrophobic phase and a hydrophilic phase is disclosed. The hydrophobic phase may include a source of hydrogen peroxide and an acyl donor, and the hydrophilic phase may include an enzyme having perhydrolytic activity that catalyzes the generation of peracetic acid between the source of hydrogen peroxide and the acyl donor.

Oral care compositions and methods for increasing the stability of the same

An oral treatment device for dispensing an oral treatment composition onto a user's teeth. The oral treatment device may include a storage and delivery component and an applicator component. The storage and delivery component may include a body having a reservoir, a frangible capsule containing the oral treatment composition located in the reservoir, and a delivery member. The applicator component may include a pad portion formed of a liquid absorbing material. The applicator component may be alterable between an attached state whereby the delivery member is fluidly coupled to the pad portion and a detached state whereby the applicator component is detached from the storage and delivery component and can be placed into contact with the user's teeth. The frangible capsule may be in a sealed state until broken by a user at which point the oral treatment composition may flow into the pad portion of the applicator component.

Oral treatment device

The present disclosure provides a tooth whitening strip comprising a hydratable adhesive film comprising an inorganic salt of peroxymonosulfate, preferably an alkali metal salt or alkaline earth metal salt, or mixtures thereof, and methods of using the same.

Peroxymonosulfate whitening strips

Disclosed herein are oral care compositions comprising an oral care composition comprising a peroxide whitening complex present in an amount to provide from about 3.0% to about 8% of hydrogen peroxide by weight of the composition; a block copolymer of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide in an amount from about 0.01% to about 8% by weight of the composition; a stearate in an amount from about 0.3% to about 5% by weight of the composition; and a humectant in an amount from about 60% to about 90% by weight of the composition. Methods of making and using the oral care compositions are also provided.

Oral care compositions

Disclosed herein are oral care compositions comprising a peroxide whitening complex in an amount to provide from 3.5% to 7% of hydrogen peroxide by weight of the composition, and a block copolymer of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide in an amount of from 40% to 60% by weight of the composition. Methods of making and using the dentifrices are also provided.

Oral care whitening compositions

A two-phase oral care whitening composition including a hydrophobic phase and a hydrophilic phase, and methods for oral care whitening teeth with the same are provided. The hydrophobic phase may include a source of hydrogen peroxide and an acyl donor. The hydrophilic phase may include an enzyme that catalyzes the generation of peracetic acid between the source of hydrogen peroxide and the acyl donor. At least one of the hydrophobic phase and the hydrophilic phase may further include at least one surfactant.

Two-phase oral care whitening compositions

Apparatuses and methods for producing improved photographs suitable for measuring teeth whiteness with a handheld camera using a camera jig are provided. The camera jig includes a base that contacts a surface. The camera jig also includes a light shield made from a tubular structure defining an interior cavity. The camera jig further includes a slot in the tubular structure that supports the handheld camera at a predetermined distance from a target, which may be teeth of a user. The slot aligns a lens of the handheld camera with the target. Further, the light shield blocks substantially all ambient light, other than light of a light source of the handheld camera, from the target as it is photographed.

Color measurement jig

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

Oral care compositions and methods

Described herein are oral care compositions comprising a whitening agent having the formula: R&#x2014;O&#x2014;O&#x2014;R; and an aliphatic ketone; wherein Rand Rare independently selected from hydrogen, C-Calkyl, C-Calkenyl, C-Ccarbonyl, SO, and phenyl; and methods of making and using the same.

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

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

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