[0013] In the present application, by using ferroelectric ceramic particles with a particle size of 1 to 3 μm or ferroelectric ceramic fibers with an aspect ratio of 1 to 6, the structure of the abrasive in the electrostatic antibacterial toothpaste can be made uniform, the electrical properties can be stabilized, and the degree of tooth wear during tooth cleaning can be reduced.In the present application, by using ferroelectric ceramic particles with a particle size of 1 to 3 μm, the particles are fine and are unlikely to cause a foreign body sensation, and the aggregation and reverse coarsening phenomena caused by particles that are too small (for example, less than 1 μm) can be avoided.
[0014] In some embodiments of the present application, the charged antimicrobial toothpaste abrasive has a Mohs hardness of 2-4. In some embodiments of the present application, the antibacterial toothpaste comprises 10-50 wt % of the charged antibacterial toothpaste abrasive, based on the weight percentage of the antibacterial toothpaste, and preferably the antibacterial toothpaste comprises 20-40 wt % of the charged antibacterial toothpaste abrasive.

In step (3), after the corona polarization treatment, the surfaces of the ferroelectric ceramic particles have a certain polarization charge and have a sustained and stable charging ability.
[0020] The method for producing ferroelectric ceramic particles described herein is simple, efficient, low-cost, highly controllable, and amenable to industrialized production.

[0022] The present application is not particularly limited to a method for producing the antibacterial toothpaste, as long as the object of the present application can be achieved.
[0023] Hereinafter, the embodiments of the present invention will be described more specifically with reference to examples and comparative examples. Test method and equipment: Particle size test: The particle size of ferroelectric ceramic particles is measured under an electron microscope, and the particle size distribution is statistically analyzed. Hardness test: Select a sharp position on the charged antibacterial toothpaste abrasive sample to be tested, and perform an indentation test on the flat surface of a flat mineral hardness tester with known hardness, in order from low to high hardness. Observe whether there are facets on the flat surface of the hardness tester. To avoid incorrect judgment, lightly wipe the flat surface so that the powder of the measurement sample remains on the hardness tester. If there are scratches on the flat surface of the hardness tester, the hardness of the sample will be greater than that of the hardness tester. Test with higher hardness testers until it is between two hardness levels or corresponds to a specific hardness tester, and determine the Mohs hardness of the charged antibacterial toothpaste abrasive to be tested.
[0024] Cleaning performance test: (1) Bovine teeth were selected as stain carriers and subjected to a preliminary sandblasting cleaning process. They were then immersed in albumin solution, a tea / coffee mixture, and an iron citrate solution for 30 minutes each. This process was repeated until the stains firmly adhered to the tooth surface, and the tooth was then prepared for use. The stained bovine tooth was then placed in the sample slot of a toothbrush, and the stained surface was aligned with the sample slot. The brush head and arm were adjusted to match the stained surface. A toothpaste dispersion was poured into the sample slot, and a simulated toothbrushing test was performed under the specified conditions with a specified load. The stain removal ability was evaluated based on changes in the photographs. (2) The bovine tooth and oral plaque bacterial solution were co-cultured in BHI liquid medium (Brain Heart Infusion medium) for 12 hours. The medium was removed with a pipette and gently washed once with sterile saline to remove floating bacteria. The bovine tooth was then removed and placed in the sample slot of a toothbrush, and the stained surface was aligned with the sample slot. The brush head and arm were adjusted to match the stained surface. The toothpaste dispersion was poured into the sample slot, and a simulated toothbrushing test was performed under the specified conditions with a specified load. An appropriate amount of the staining solution was dropped onto the surface of a bovine tooth, and the tooth was incubated at room temperature in a dark room for 15 minutes. The tooth was then carefully washed with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) to remove excess dye. Images were then observed using a laser confocal microscope (CLSM). The green fluorescence intensity was measured and the plaque removal rate was calculated by (1 - green fluorescence intensity of the toothpaste group / green fluorescence intensity of the control group) x 100%. Antibacterial performance test: Take toothpaste and add 300 μL (10 4 A co-culture experiment was conducted with 1000 CFU / mL) of Streptococcus mutans under 25 heat-cold cycles (temperature changes from 20 to 45°C) or constant temperature conditions (37°C), and the number of bacteria in the bacterial solution was counted. The bacterial activity rate of the toothpaste was calculated using the formula: bacterial activity rate = (number of bacteria before culture - number of bacteria after culture) / number of bacteria before culture x 100%, and the antibacterial rate was calculated using the formula: antibacterial rate = 1 - bacterial activity rate.

The performance parameters of the toothpastes prepared in each of the Examples and Comparative Examples are shown in Table 1.
[0040] [Table 1]
[0041] Electron microscope photographs of the ferroelectric ceramics of Examples 1 to 5 are shown in FIG. 1, and X-ray diffraction patterns of the ferroelectric ceramics of Examples 1 to 5 are shown in FIG. 2, which show that the crystals of the ferroelectric ceramic particles of the present invention have a tetragonal phase structure, are ferroelectric, and are capable of spontaneous polarization.
[0042] The results of the antibacterial rates of the antibacterial toothpastes of Examples 1 and 5 under temperature change conditions of a hot-cold cycle are shown in Figure 3, the results of the antibacterial rates of the antibacterial toothpaste of Example 3 under temperature change conditions (ΔT) and constant temperature conditions (T0) are shown in Figure 4, and the results of the plaque removal rates of the toothpastes of Examples 3, 6, and Comparative Examples 1 and 2 are shown in Figure 5.

As can be seen from Figure 6, the antibacterial effect of the BaTiO3 fiber under both temperature change conditions and constant temperature conditions shows a positive correlation with the dosage, and the antibacterial effect tends to increase as the dosage of the BaTiO3 fiber increases.
[0047] This application further compares the bacterial growth inhibitory ability of an electroactive toothpaste (containing BaTiO3 in Example 3) with a commercially available fluoride-containing toothpaste (0.1% fluoride content), specifically referring to Figure 7.

A higher OD value indicates a higher total bacterial count.
[0048] The present application also provides an electroactive toothpaste (Ba in Example 3) 0.7 Sr 0.3 The cleaning efficacy of a commercially available fluoride-containing toothpaste (0.1% fluoride content) and a caries-containing mixed bacterial flora was compared. Specifically, referring to Figure 8, the caries-containing mixed bacterial flora was co-cultured with bovine teeth for 24 hours to allow the bacterial flora to settle on the surface of the bovine teeth. Then, the electrically activated toothpaste (Ba 0.7 Sr 0.3Using (containing TiO3) and a commercially available fluorine-containing toothpaste (fluorine content 0.1%) respectively, bovine teeth were cleaned by the method of brushing teeth in the mouth. After cleaning, a dead / live bacteria staining solution was dropped and incubated in the dark for 15 minutes. Then, the fluorescence expression amount of dead / live bacteria was detected by a laser confocal microscope, and the cleaning rate = (red fluorescence + green fluorescence) / blank control group * 100% (red fluorescence represents dead bacteria, and green fluorescence represents live bacteria).
[0049] This application also compares the bacteriostatic and bactericidal effects of electroactive toothpaste (Ba in Example 3 0.7 Sr 0.3 containing TiO3) and a commercially available fluorine-containing toothpaste (fluorine content 0.1%). Specifically, referring to Figure 9, a cariogenic mixed flora was co-cultured with electroactive toothpaste (containing BST) and a commercially available fluorine-containing toothpaste (fluorine content 0.1%) for 24 hours respectively. Then, the bacterial suspension was aspirated, centrifuged to precipitate, a dead / live bacteria staining solution was dropped and incubated in the dark for 15 minutes, centrifuged to precipitate, washed with PBS, and the fluorescence expression amount of dead / live bacteria was detected by a laser confocal microscope. The bacteriostatic rate = red fluorescence color / (red fluorescence + green fluorescence) * 100% (red fluorescence represents dead bacteria, and green fluorescence represents live bacteria).
