Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of oral hygiene technology, and in particular to a herbal tooth-cleaning powder containing multiple bio-enzyme factors and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Teeth cleaning powder is a type of dental cleaning product that is mainly in powder form. It is primarily used to clean extrinsic stains such as tobacco stains, tea stains, and coffee stains on the surface of teeth. It also helps to remove plaque and freshen breath. Its cleaning method is different from that of regular toothpaste, and it is more inclined to physical cleaning and stain removal by adsorption. The overall texture is dry and has a noticeable granular feel. When used, it usually produces much less foam than toothpaste.
[0003] The core working principle of teeth whitening powder is to gently abrade the tooth surface with fine abrasive particles during brushing, removing pigments and plaque attached to the teeth. Some formulas also add absorbent or chelating ingredients to further absorb pigments and prevent stains from re-adhering to the teeth. Compared to regular toothpaste, teeth whitening powder is not diluted with a large amount of water, resulting in a higher concentration of effective cleaning ingredients. Therefore, its stain removal effect is more noticeable, and it is particularly effective in improving yellowing and blackening of teeth caused by long-term tea drinking and smoking. However, it cannot dissolve tartar, nor can it improve intrinsic discoloration problems such as tetracycline staining or fluorosis.
[0004] In terms of composition, most dental cleaning powders are primarily composed of mild abrasives, such as hydrated silica, calcium carbonate, and nano-hydroxyapatite, which ensure cleaning power while minimizing wear on tooth enamel. The stain-removing portion often uses mild amino acid surfactants like sodium lauroyl sarcosinate, combined with small amounts of solubilizers and flavoring agents. This enhances the cleaning and emulsification effect, improves the taste, and reduces oral dryness and irritation. However, dental cleaning powders are relatively more abrasive and not suitable for frequent, long-term use like toothpaste. Otherwise, they may excessively wear down tooth enamel, leading to tooth sensitivity, roughened tooth surfaces, and increased susceptibility to staining.
[0005] Current teeth cleaning powders still have some problems when used. First, the powder has poor dispersibility when it comes into contact with water, making it difficult to quickly form an emulsion system. This results in a slow decomposition and removal of stains such as tooth stains, tea stains, and tobacco stains, thus limiting the cleaning effect. Second, in traditional teeth cleaning products with added biological enzymes, the enzymes are prone to deactivation under conventional processing and storage conditions, resulting in poor long-term stability and making it difficult to maintain a high cleaning effect over long-term use. Summary of the Invention
[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a herbal teeth cleaning powder containing multiple bio-enzyme factors and its preparation method, which solves the problems of limited cleaning effect and unsuitability for long-term use in existing technologies.
[0007] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a herbal teeth-cleaning powder containing multiple bio-enzyme factors, comprising the following components by weight percentage:
[0008] Water-soluble emulsion base material: 32-48%;
[0009] Friction agent: 22-32%;
[0010] Biological enzyme multi-effect factor: 2-5%;
[0011] Antibacterial component: 3-6%;
[0012] Stain-inhibiting and stain-dissolving components: 3-6%;
[0013] Refreshing ingredients: 6-11%;
[0014] Mucosal repair components: 1-4%;
[0015] Cleaning aid: 1-3%;
[0016] Carrier and cosolvent: balance.
[0017] Preferably, the water-soluble emulsified substrate includes one of sodium lauroyl sarcosinate, acyl glutamate, and acyl glycinate.
[0018] Preferably, the friction agent includes one of hydroxyapatite, fluorapatite, tricalcium phosphate, and dicalcium hydrogen phosphate.
[0019] Preferably, the bioenzyme multifunctional factor includes one or more of lysozyme, glucose oxidase, and amylase, or a mixture thereof.
[0020] Preferably, the antibacterial component comprises a mixture of tea polyphenols, honeysuckle extract, and clove extract.
[0021] Preferably, the stain-inhibiting and stain-dissolving component comprises a mixture of zinc citrate and papain in a mass ratio of 2 to 4:1.
[0022] Preferably, the refreshing component comprises a mixture of peppermint extract, spearmint extract and β-cyclodextrin.
[0023] Preferably, the mucosal repair component includes one or a mixture of two of dipotassium glycyrrhizate and aloe vera powder.
[0024] Preferably, the cleaning aid comprises a complex of sodium phytate and pigment ions, the carrier comprises xylitol, and the cosolvent comprises a mixture of sorbitol and glycerol in a mass ratio of 1 to 2:1.
[0025] Secondly, the present invention provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned herbal teeth-cleaning powder containing multiple bio-enzyme factors, comprising the following steps:
[0026] S1. Add the water-soluble emulsion substrate, carrier, and co-solvent into the mixer and stir at 5℃-20℃ for 10-15 minutes;
[0027] S2. Add abrasive and cleaning agent, and continue mixing for 15-20 minutes;
[0028] S3. Add antibacterial components, refreshing components, and mucosal repair components, and mix for 15-20 minutes.
[0029] S4. Control the system temperature at 25℃-35℃, add the bio-enzyme multi-effect factor and stain-inhibiting and stain-dissolving components, and mix lightly for 10-12 minutes.
[0030] S5. After mixing evenly, pass through a 100-120 mesh sieve; aseptically dispense, seal, and store in the dark to obtain the finished product.
[0031] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0032] 1. This invention utilizes amino acid emulsifying powder. Upon contact with water, its hydrophilic heads (carboxylate salts and amino acid residues) rapidly form hydrogen bonds and an ion hydration layer with water molecules. The surfactant monomers quickly dissolve and disperse in the water, rapidly exceeding the critical micelle concentration (CMC), thus preventing localized aggregation and delayed dissolution. Simultaneously, the co-solvent (polyol) contained in this invention dissolves concurrently, reducing system viscosity, accelerating surfactant diffusion, adjusting water polarity, enhancing surfactant solubility in the aqueous phase, and assisting in solubilizing the oil phase, eliminating the "dissolution bottleneck." This achieves rapid microemulsification of the amino acid emulsifying powder, enabling rapid encapsulation, emulsification, and removal of dental stains, resulting in optimal cleaning performance.
[0033] 2. The carrier in this invention serves as a protective component for the multifunctional factor of biological enzymes. It covers the surface of the enzyme protein with hydrogen bonds, replaces water molecules, and forms a "hydration protective layer" to prevent the structural collapse caused by surfactant insertion and high temperature / drying. This allows the biological enzymes to maintain their activity in the dental cleaning powder for a long time and maintain effective cleaning function.
[0034] 3. The antibacterial and stain-dissolving components of the present invention can form a synergistic effect with the multi-effect factor of biological enzymes. After the biological enzymes break down the dental plaque biofilm, the teeth are then subjected to stain-dissolving and plaque removal as well as long-lasting antibacterial effects, which has a longer-lasting tooth protection function compared with traditional teeth cleaning.
[0035] 4. The refreshing component in this invention is a combination of peppermint extract, spearmint extract and β-cyclodextrin. The loose and porous structure of β-cyclodextrin fully absorbs the peppermint extract and spearmint extract, so that the fragrance is released slowly and the refreshing fragrance lasts longer.
[0036] 5. This invention precisely controls the ratio of zinc citrate to papain in the stain-inhibiting and stain-dissolving components, so that the stain-inhibiting effect is at its best, while not reducing the stability of the powder itself, thus ensuring long-term maintenance of effective stain-inhibiting ability.
