Problems solved by technology

Many individuals desire a “bright” smile and white teeth and consider dull and stained teeth cosmetically unattractive.
Unfortunately, without preventive or remedial measures, stained teeth are almost inevitable due to the absorbent nature of dental material.
Everyday activities such as smoking or other oral use of tobacco products, and eating, chewing or drinking certain foods and beverages (in particular coffee, tea and red wine), cause undesirable staining of surfaces of teeth.
Even with regular brushing and flossing, years of chromogen accumulation can impart noticea

[0108] The composition is made by a process generally as described above in Example 1. The composition is subjected to accelerated aging conditions (105° F. / 120° F.) for several weeks, and remains stable with more than 90% of the peroxide remaining.

[0109] The whitening efficacy of the composition is determined using a duplicate pair of flow cells designed to accommodate a total of eight bovine enamel blocks (four in each cell). The bovine enamel blocks are obtained freshly stained using an established staining protocol (Indiana University, Indianapolis, Ind.). The initial L*, a* and b* values are matched as closely as possible prior to an experiment using a chromometer (Minolta CR-321) based on in...

Abstract

Oral care compositions comprising: (a) a peroxide complex comprising a peroxide component and an N-vinyl heterocyclic polymer (e.g., poly-N-vinyl polylactam, or poly-N-vinyl-polyimide); (b) a whitening agent (e.g., hydrogen peroxide); and (c) an orally acceptable carrier. In one embodiment, the carrier comprises a film forming material. Methods are also provided for making an oral care composition comprising: (a) mixing a whitening agent, silicone adhesive and carrier fluid to form a homogenous mixture; (b) adding a peroxide complex to said homogenous mixture, wherein said complex comprises hydrogen peroxide and an N-vinyl heterocyclic polymer; and (c) mixing under vacuum.

Description

INTRODUCTION [0001] The present invention relates to oral care compositions and methods. In particular, the present invention includes compositions and methods for whitening of teeth. [0002] Many individuals desire a “bright” smile and white teeth and consider dull and stained teeth cosmetically unattractive. Unfortunately, without preventive or remedial measures, stained teeth are almost inevitable due to the absorbent nature of dental material. Everyday activities such as smoking or other oral use of tobacco products, and eating, chewing or drinking certain foods and beverages (in particular coffee, tea and red wine), cause undesirable staining of surfaces of teeth. Staining can also result from microbial activity, including that associated with dental plaque. The chromogens or color causing substances in these materials become part of the pellicle layer and can permeate the enamel layer. Even with regular brushing and flossing, years of chromogen accumulation can impart noticeabl...
