Problems solved by technology

Combining these basic amino acids with minerals having oral care benefits, e.g., fluoride and calcium, to form an oral care product having acceptable long term stability, however, has proven challenging.
Moreover, the higher pH has the potential to cause irritation.
At neutral pH or acidic pH, however, a system utilizing arginine bicarbonate (which the art teaches is preferred) may release carbon dioxide, leading to bloating and bursting of the containers.
Moreover, it might be expected that lowering the pH to neutral or acidic conditions would reduce the efficacy of the formulation because the arginine may form an insoluble arginine-calcium complex that has a poorer affinity for th

Availability and Delivery of Antibacterial in Arginine Formulations

[0095]Formulations are prepared using commercial toothpaste comprising, i.a., 0.3% by weight of triclosan, 0.243% by weight of sodium fluoride, sodium lauryl sulfate, and a copolymer of methyl vinyl ether and maleic anhydride (PVM / MA), to which is added 0, 1%, 3%, and 5% L-arginine hydrochloride (pH 7.0).

[0096]Incorporation of L-arginine in the commercial formulation enhances the amount of soluble triclosan available from the formulation, from about 70% (0% arginine) to about 80% (1% arginine), 85% (3% arginine), and 95% (5% arginine).

[0097]The formulations are tested in vitro in an artificial mouth model designed to measure bacterial attachment to toothpaste-treated hydroxyapatite (HAP) disks over a 24 hour period, generally as described by Gaffar, A. et al. American Journal of Dentistry, vol. 3, September 1990, with the modification that the saliva-coated hydroxyapatite disks are treated with the dentifrice slurry ...

Abstract

This invention relates to oral care compositions comprising an effective amount of a basic amino acid in free or salt form, together with an anionic surfactant, and to methods of using and of making such compositions.

Description

[0001]This application claims the benefit of U.S. Ser. No. 61 / 027,432 filed Feb. 8, 2008, U.S. Ser. No. 61 / 027,431 filed Feb. 8, 2008 and U.S. Ser. No. 61 / 027,420 filed Feb. 8, 2008, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]This invention relates to oral care compositions comprising a basic amino acid in free or salt form, an anionic surfactant, and optional additional agents, and to methods of using and of making these compositions.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]Arginine and other basic amino acids have been proposed for use in oral care and are believed to have benefits in combating cavity formation and tooth sensitivity. Combining these basic amino acids with minerals having oral care benefits, e.g., fluoride and calcium, to form an oral care product having acceptable long term stability, however, has proven challenging. In particular, the basic amino acid may raise the pH and facilitate dissociation of calcium ions that can react w...
