Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of oral care products technology, specifically relating to an oral care toothpaste and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing prevalence of oral health problems such as tooth sensitivity, gingivitis, bad breath, and cavities, more and more people are realizing the importance of oral hygiene. Cavities, a common chronic oral disease, are a bacterial infection that can lead to pulpitis and periapical periodontitis, and even inflammation of the alveolar bone and jawbone.
[0003] Invasive treatments, a traditional approach to caries management, involve the preparation of oral tissues and cavities, as well as restorations using artificial materials such as amalgam and composite resins. However, due to the differences in properties between artificial materials and tooth tissue, long-term clinical outcomes are often unsatisfactory. For caries prevention, commercially available oral care products (such as functional toothpastes and mouthwashes) typically contain antibiotics, chlorhexidine, or fluoride, which work by inhibiting the colonization of cariogenic bacteria and the formation of biofilms. However, antibiotic resistance and side effects, along with high concentrations of fluoride that can irritate the gums and oral mucosa and trigger inflammation, limit the long-term value of existing preventative measures.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop an oral care toothpaste that can systematically prevent and treat tooth decay by reducing inflammation in the oral cavity and promoting the remineralization of enamel and dentin, thereby filling the current market gap. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of the above-mentioned defects or improvement needs of the existing technology, the present invention provides an oral care toothpaste and its preparation method, which solves the problem that the existing oral care products have poor effects in preventing and treating tooth decay.

[0007] In this invention, the human recombinant enamel matrix protein contains a variety of biologically active growth factors. Amelogenin, as the main component of the human recombinant enamel matrix protein, is the active part that promotes periodontal regeneration. The human recombinant enamel matrix protein also has anti-inflammatory effects on periodontal immune cells and tissue cells, and can prevent or treat dental caries.
[0008] Casein phosphopeptide is a polypeptide extracted from natural proteins that can bind calcium ions from food to the site of tooth decay, reducing enamel demineralization and thus preventing tooth decay. It also has high absorption properties and can enhance the body's immunity.
[0009] Phyllanthus emblica extract contains a large amount of polyphenols, which have significant antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antiviral, anti-aging and cariogenic bacteria-inhibiting effects. It is a natural plant ingredient with multiple oral health benefits and has broad application prospects in oral care products with anti-caries effects.
[0010] Tart cherry extract is rich in anthocyanins, flavonoids, vitamin C, and polyphenolic compounds. It has strong antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and plaque-inhibiting properties, which help protect the health of gum tissue and oral mucosa. It shows promise for use in anti-caries oral care products.

[0046] Example 1: Anti-inflammatory efficacy test This efficacy test case evaluates the anti-inflammatory effect of toothpastes prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-5 on the expression of inflammatory factors in periodontal ligament cells by detecting their influence on periodontal cells.
[0047] Sample preparation: DMEM medium was added to the toothpaste prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-5, respectively. After mixing and homogenization, the samples were prepared into test solutions with a concentration of 0.1 g / mL for later use. The experimental procedure is as follows: Human periodontal ligament cells in the logarithmic growth phase were taken at a concentration of 2 × 10⁻⁶. 7 Cells were seeded at a density of 1 mL of DMEM medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum in each well of a 24-well plate and incubated at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 24 h. The medium was then discarded, and the cells were added to the plates according to the following groups and the treatment lasted for 48 h, with 5 replicates per group. The specific groupings are as follows: Blank control group: Add 1 mL of DMEM culture medium; Model group: Add 1 mL of DMEM medium containing 10 μg / mL LPS; Sample group: Add 1 mL of DMEM medium containing 10 μg / mL LPS and 0.1 g / mL test solution; After the intervention, cell mRNA was extracted, and the concentrations of IL-6 and TNF-α were detected by qPCR. The inhibition rates of IL-6 and TNF-α were calculated according to the following formula. The experimental data are presented as average values. The specific results are shown in Table 1. ; In the formula: IL-6 空白对照组 The IL-6 concentration was used as the blank control group.

[0048] Table 1 Anti-inflammatory efficacy test data Group IL-6 inhibition rate (%) TNF-α inhibition rate (%) Example 1 69.75 77.13 Example 2 70.51 78.67 Example 3 72.48 80.02 Comparative Example 1 61.23 67.18 Comparative Example 2 56.92 62.36 Comparative Example 3 59.34 65.45 Comparative Example 4 67.57 75.29 Comparative Example 5 66.40 73.84 Compared with Example 2, Comparative Examples 1-3 did not contain any of the following: recombinant human amelena matrix protein, amla extract, and sour cherry extract. Comparative Examples 4-5 adjusted the ratio of human recombinant amelena matrix protein, casein phosphopeptide, calcium lactate, amla extract, and sour cherry extract.
[0049] As can be seen from the data on IL-6 inhibition rate and TNF-α inhibition rate of Examples 1-3 in Table 1, the toothpaste of the present invention has anti-inflammatory effect on periodontal cells.
[0050] As shown in Table 1, the IL-6 inhibition rate and TNF-α inhibition rate of Example 2 and Comparative Examples 1-3 are as follows: the toothpaste prepared by selecting three components, namely human recombinant enamel matrix protein, amla extract and sour cherry extract, can significantly improve the IL-6 inhibition rate and TNF-α inhibition rate. This indicates that human recombinant enamel matrix protein, amla extract and sour cherry extract have a synergistic effect, which makes the anti-inflammatory ability of Example 2 significantly improved compared with Comparative Examples 1-3.
[0051] As can be seen from the data on IL-6 inhibition rate and TNF-α inhibition rate of Example 2 and Comparative Examples 4-5 in Table 1, the ratio of human recombinant enamel matrix protein, amla extract and sour cherry extract affects the anti-inflammatory effect of toothpaste on periodontal cells. When the ratio of human recombinant enamel matrix protein, amla extract and sour cherry extract falls within the range defined by this invention, the anti-inflammatory effect of toothpaste is better.
[0052] Example 2 of the effect test: Remineralization test Tooth enamel is the hardest tissue in the human body, and its hardness primarily stems from its high degree of mineralization. When tooth enamel undergoes demineralization (such as acid etching or caries), mineral loss occurs, leading to a significant decrease in surface microhardness (SMH). Active ingredients with remineralizing properties can promote the redeposition of calcium and phosphorus, restoring the integrity of the enamel structure and thus improving surface hardness. Vickers Hardness (HV) is the most commonly used measurement method and numerical expression for SMH; therefore, HV is widely used as one of the gold standard indicators for quantitatively assessing the degree of enamel demineralization and the effectiveness of remineralization repair.
[0053] In this effect test example, in order to evaluate the effect of the test sample on the surface hardness of teeth, the Vickers hardness value of the extracted bovine teeth was measured using a Vickers hardness tester, thereby evaluating the remineralization and repair capabilities of the toothpastes prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 6-10.
[0054] The specific experimental steps are as follows: 1) Preparation of tooth enamel specimens: Select freshly extracted bovine teeth, cut them into pieces approximately 5mm × 5mm in size, and embed them in polymethyl methacrylate resin. Under water cooling conditions, use a P180 grinding wheel on a polishing machine to grind the enamel surface of the tooth grinding block until it is completely exposed and the surface of the tooth grinding block is level. Then, use P600 and 2500 silicon carbide sandpaper to grind it smooth in sequence. Finally, use a soft cloth with 1µm diamond polishing paste to polish it to a mirror finish. The prepared tooth grinding blocks are stored in deionized water for later use. 2) Preparation of artificial saliva: Weigh 0.246g calcium nitrate, 0.1225g potassium dihydrogen phosphate, 9.685g potassium chloride, and 4.184g bis(2-hydroxyethyl)aminotris(hydroxymethyl)methane into a 1L beaker, add 800mL deionized water, stir thoroughly to dissolve, and adjust the pH to 7.0±0.05 with 1mol / L HCl; transfer this solution to a 1L volumetric flask and dilute to the mark with deionized water. 3) Preparation of demineralization solution: Weigh 5g of citric acid into a 500mL volumetric flask, add deionized water to make up to 500mL, and adjust the pH to 3.80 using 1mol / L NaOH solution; 4) Screening of enamel specimens: The hardness of enamel specimens was measured using a Vickers hardness tester (100g pressure, 5s loading time). Four points were measured on each specimen, with each point at least 0.5mm from the edge of the tooth block. The four points were evenly distributed, with a minimum distance of 1mm between each point. The hardness of the enamel specimen was the average of the four measurements, recorded as HV0 (the baseline value for enamel hardness). A hardness value of (300-350) kg / mm² was selected. 2 Specimens from between were included in this study; 5) Preparation of toothpaste paste for test samples: Weigh a certain amount of the toothpaste to be tested and deionized water according to the ratio of 1g:1.3mL (toothpaste:water), stir and mix well, and avoid foaming; add 5mL of toothpaste paste to each tooth enamel specimen; the preparation method of toothpaste paste for each group is the same; 6) Demineralization treatment: Immerse the enamel specimen in 1% citric acid for 30 minutes at a temperature controlled at 37℃±2℃, stirring with a propeller at low speed (60 r / min), keeping the propeller 5 cm above the enamel specimen. Then, thoroughly rinse the specimen with deionized water and dry it. Use a Vickers hardness tester (100g pressure, 5s loading time) to measure the hardness of the demineralized enamel specimen. Measure four points on each specimen, ensuring the measurement points are at least 0.5 mm from the edge of the tooth block, and distribute the measurements evenly across the four points. There are four measurement points, and the distance between each measurement point should not be less than 1 mm. The hardness of the enamel specimen is the average of the four measurements, denoted as HV1 (hardness value of enamel after demineralization). Demineralized enamel samples are screened, and then the enamel specimens are randomly divided into 9 experimental groups, namely Examples 1-3, Comparative Examples 6-10, and 1 blank control group, with 8 samples in each group. After grouping, the Vickers surface hardness values of the two groups are tested using an independent samples t-test, requiring no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). 7) Experimental Cycle: In the experimental group, the toothpaste slurry was used to soak the specimen for 15 minutes under constant temperature and shaking conditions (37℃±2℃, 100 rpm / min). The specimen was then thoroughly rinsed with deionized water, and then soaked in artificial saliva under constant temperature and shaking conditions for 6 hours (temperature and shaking as above). The toothpaste slurry was then used to soak the specimen for 15 minutes under constant temperature and humidity conditions (temperature and shaking as above), and the specimen was thoroughly rinsed with deionized water. Finally, the specimen was soaked in artificial saliva under constant temperature and shaking conditions overnight (37℃±2℃, 100 rpm / min). The above operation was repeated for a total of 7 days. The blank control group was soaked in an equal amount of deionized water instead of toothpaste slurry, and other treatments were the same as those in the experimental group. 8) Hardness test: After the cycle ends on day 7, the hardness of the enamel specimen is measured using a Vickers hardness tester (pressure 100g, loading time 5s). Four points are measured for each specimen. The distance between the measurement point and the edge of the tooth block should not be less than 0.5mm. The four measurement points should be evenly distributed, and the distance between each measurement point should not be less than 1mm. The hardness of the enamel specimen is the average of the four measurements, which is recorded as HV2 (hardness value of enamel after remineralization). 9) Experimental data are expressed as mean ± standard deviation (Mean ± SD); the results are shown in Table 2.

[0056] Compared with Example 2, Comparative Examples 6-8 were without casein phosphopeptide and calcium lactate, amla extract and tart cherry extract, respectively, while Comparative Examples 9-10 were with adjusted ratios of casein phosphopeptide, calcium lactate, amla extract and tart cherry extract, respectively.
[0057] As can be seen from the remineralization test data of Example 2 and Comparative Examples 6-8 in Table 2, casein phosphopeptide, calcium lactate, amla extract, and sour cherry extract can synergistically improve the Vickers hardness value of Example 2, thereby improving the remineralization and repair ability of tooth enamel in the toothpaste of Example 2.
[0058] As can be seen from the data of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 9-10 in Table 2, the ratio of casein phosphopeptide, calcium lactate, amla extract, and sour cherry extract affects the toothpaste's promoting effect on remineralization. When the ratio of casein phosphopeptide, calcium lactate, amla extract, and sour cherry extract falls within the range defined by this invention, the toothpaste has a better promoting effect on tooth enamel remineralization.
[0059] Comparative Example 11 (Blank Comparative Example) Compared with Example 2, the difference is that Comparative Example 11 did not add human recombinant enamel matrix protein, casein phosphopeptide, calcium lactate, amla extract and sour cherry extract, and the missing amounts were made up with an equal amount of deionized water. All other conditions and preparation methods were the same as in Example 2.
[0060] Example 3 of efficacy test: Human efficacy trial This efficacy test example examines the anti-inflammatory and repairing effects of the toothpastes prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Example 11 of this invention.
[0061] The specific experimental steps are as follows: Eighty patients with periodontitis were selected as volunteers, half male and half female, aged 22-40 years, with a disease duration of 1-2 years; they were randomly divided into 4 groups of 20 patients each; all patients in each group brushed their teeth twice a day, morning and evening, using 2 grams of the drug each time for 5 minutes each time, and were prohibited from eating or drinking for 30 minutes after brushing, and the treatment was continued for 3 months; the sulcus bleeding index (SBI) and gingival index (GI) were observed. The Sulcus Bleeding Index (SBI) was proposed by Muheman and Sou in 1971. The scoring system ranges from 0 to 5: 0 indicates healthy gums with no inflammation and no bleeding on probing; 1 indicates normal gum color but pinpoint bleeding on probing (blood spots only appear at the tip of the probe); 2 indicates mild redness and swelling of the gums, with linear bleeding on probing (blood seeps along the sulcus); 3 indicates significant redness and swelling of the gums, with spontaneous bleeding on probing (bleeding is visible even without probing) or noticeable bleeding; 4 indicates severe gingival inflammation with ulcers or necrosis, and heavy bleeding on probing; 5 indicates severe gingival inflammation, spontaneous bleeding, and purulent discharge. Gingival Index (GI): Proposed by Loe and Silness in 1963, the scoring system ranges from 0 to 3. 0 indicates healthy gums, no inflammation, pink color, firm texture, and no bleeding on probing; 1 indicates mild gingival inflammation: slight color change (slightly red), mild edema, and no bleeding on probing; 2 indicates moderate gingival inflammation: obvious redness, edema, and shine, with bleeding on probing; 3 indicates severe gingival inflammation: significant redness and swelling, ulceration, spontaneous bleeding, and even pseudo-periodontal pockets. Experimental data are expressed as mean ± standard deviation (Mean ± SD); results are shown in Tables 3-4.
