An oral composition comprising (i) at least one phosphate selected from the group consisting of linear polyphosphates of the formula (I): wherein M represents Na or K and N .gtoreq.2, and cyclic polyphosphates of the formula (II): wherein M' represents Na or K and m.gtoreq.3 and (iii) l-menthol, anethol, or the mixture thereof in an aqueous medium. This oral composition has an excellent antibacterial effect and prevents the development of calculus and periodontal diseases.
The present invention relates to a toothpaste composition for preventing calculus formation and removing plaque, more specifically to the toothpaste composition comprising soluble ultra phosphate with network structure and zeolite granule. The composition of the present invention has superior effect to prevent and remove calculus, and removing interdental plaque.
Antimicrobial hydroxyapatite powders containing hydroxyapatite power and one or more organic antimicrobial agents selected from hinokitiol, protamine and sorbic acid.
A chew product useful against the build-up of dental calculus on the teeth of animals contains an amount of sodium hexametaphosphate effective to reduce the development of dental calculus. The chew product in one embodiment is prepared by soaking the product in an aqueous solution containing from about 0.5% to about 3.0% by weight sodium hexametaphosphate. Also disclosed are methods for preparing the novel chew product and for using the chew product containing sodium hexametaphosphate to reduce and/or prevent the build-up of dental calculus on the teeth of animals.
A storage stable aqueous oral composition which is effective against calculus which contains an orally acceptable vehicle having incorporated therein from about 10% to up to about 15% by weight water, an effective anticalculus combination of about 0.5 to about 2% by weight of a water soluble pyrophosphate salt and about 0.5 to about 3% by weight of a water soluble polyphosphate salt. The presence in the composition of relatively high amounts of water affect the stability of the composition.

The invention relates to a toothpaste which contains a mixture of an alkalimetal trimetaphosphate and a fluoride salt as anti-caries agents. The interaction between the trimetaphosphate salt and the fluoride salt is substantially reduced by providing the trimetaphosphate salt to be present in the liquid phase of the toothpaste in at least partly insoluble form. Optimum results are obtained if all the trimetaphosphate is present in insoluble form in the liquid phase.
