Abstract
Description
[0001] AM-PM Multivitamin Antiseptic Mouthwash Kit, Circadian Rhythm Regulator and Safe for Sensitive Groups.
[0002] Field of invention
[0003] Food grade mouthwash composition
[0004] The invention relates to the field of mouthwash compositions, particularly mouth rinses. This rinse has antiseptic and nourishing properties, taking advantage of the absorption efficiency of the oral mucosa to strengthen the oral microbiota and nourish the neurotransmitters that regulate the circadian rhythm.
[0005] Background of the Invention
[0006] Oral hygiene is a fundamental component for maintaining not only oral health but also overall health. The mouth is the gateway to the digestive system and plays a crucial role in the first stage of food processing. Proper oral care prevents diseases such as tooth decay, gingivitis, and periodontitis, which, if left untreated, can lead to more serious complications, affecting not only the oral cavity but also systemic health.
[0007] However, most toothpaste and mouthwash products available on the market focus solely on eliminating bacteria and maintaining oral hygiene, but they overlook an essential aspect: the protection and balance of the oral microbiota.
[0008] This microbiota, composed of a community of beneficial microorganisms, plays a vital role in immune protection, regulating oral pH, and preventing the growth of pathogens.
[0009] Continued use of products containing synthetic ingredients, such as Sodium Lauhl Sulfate (SLS) and triclosan, can disrupt this balance, reducing beneficial bacteria and allowing chemical compounds to enter the body, acting as endocrine disruptors and contributing to chronic inflammation.
[0010] Over the years, numerous patented solutions have been developed to address oral hygiene challenges. However, most of these solutions simply replace one synthetic ingredient with another or modify the dosages of existing compounds. For example, patent Z968870 offers a formulation with zinc salts, which, while potentially effective in reducing bad breath, still relies on components that do not address oral microbiota issues or systemic health.
[0011] Similarly, patent CN1 12022791 uses menthol and glycine, two common ingredients that offer limited benefits and do not eliminate long-term adverse effects on the oral microbiota. Patent 2932551 is notable for its use of chlorhexidine, a potent antiseptic, but one with known side effects, such as mucosal irritation and disruption of the bacterial balance in the mouth. Finally, patent W09416674 introduces propylene glycol and glycine in doses different from those used in traditional mouthwashes, but still does not offer a solution that avoids disruption of the oral microbiota or the potential systemic effects of these compounds.
[0012] Given the growing concern about the negative effects of these synthetic ingredients on oral and systemic health, the need to develop products that not only maintain oral hygiene but also protect and nourish the oral microbiota and, consequently, the individual's overall health is evident. It is crucial that future oral hygiene products offer a safe and natural alternative that avoids exposure to harmful synthetic compounds while actively promoting the user's overall well-being.
[0013] This invention arises precisely to satisfy this need, offering an innovative solution that combines natural and biocompatible ingredients with the ability to regulate the circadian rhythm, protect the oral microbiota, and improve the individual's overall health. Description of the invention
[0014] This invention relates to advanced oral care compositions that replace traditional chemical ingredients with environmentally friendly and biocompatible ingredients. Unlike conventional products, these compositions not only effectively cleanse the oral cavity but also promote a balanced oral microbiota, supporting overall health and preventing adverse systemic effects.
[0015] The key innovative aspect lies in the ingredients' ability to be absorbed through the oral mucosa, especially the sublingual mucosa, allowing for the rapid and efficient delivery of essential minerals that regulate the circadian rhythm. This formula addresses health issues such as insomnia, chronic adrenal fatigue, and chronic inflammation, improving sleep quality, metabolic balance, and contributing to a better quality of life.
[0016] The oral cavity is a critical region not only for its role in digestion but also as an efficient channel for the direct absorption of substances. Among the absorption routes that do not require intestinal intervention, sublingual absorption stands out in medicine for its use in the rapid and effective administration of medications and nutrients through the mucosa located under the tongue. This area has a rich network of blood vessels and a thin layer of epithelial tissue that allows for direct absorption into the bloodstream. Unlike conventional oral administration, which involves passage through the digestive system and hepatic metabolism, sublingual absorption bypasses this "first-pass effect," providing greater bioavailability and rapid action.
[0017] This process is especially useful in situations requiring immediate action, such as the administration of nitroglycerin for angina, which provides rapid relief by improving blood flow to the heart. Furthermore, it offers opportunities for the efficient delivery of nutrients and other bioactive compounds, enabling rapid therapeutic effects.
[0018] The invention takes advantage of the oral cavity's unique ability to absorb minerals and other essential compounds. This maximizes the efficacy of the natural ingredients in the formulation, allowing for direct intervention in the regulation of key physiological processes such as neurotransmitter production and circadian rhythm synchronization. The absorption of minerals like iron, crucial for the production of tyrosine, which generates morning dopamine, and magnesium, essential for melatonin synthesis, underscores the importance of sublingual administration in this invention for improving overall health.
[0019] The oral cavity, and specifically sublingual absorption, represents a valuable and underutilized channel for the efficient delivery of nutrients and medications. This absorption route optimizes the bioavailability of compounds and allows for rapid influence on critical physiological functions, such as central nervous system balance and circadian rhythm regulation. Utilizing this mechanism in oral care products offers an innovation with the potential to profoundly improve overall health and well-being.
[0020] Faced with current challenges in oral hygiene and general health, especially the adverse effects of synthetic ingredients in traditional toothpaste products, this invention offers an innovative solution. It not only avoids disrupting the oral microbiota and overall health, but also provides a sanitizing and protective action that actively promotes a balanced oral microbiota.
[0021] The key to this invention lies in the integration of natural, food-grade ingredients, selected for their compatibility with the oral ecosystem and their ability to promote overall health. Unlike conventional products that can disrupt the natural microbiota, these ingredients support and strengthen it, contributing to a healthier and more balanced oral environment.
[0022] Furthermore, this formulation leverages sublingual absorption to efficiently deliver essential minerals and nutrients directly to the central nervous system. This enables effective intervention in the regulation of neurotransmitters such as dopamine, serotonin, and melatonin, crucial for maintaining a healthy circadian rhythm. By designing a toothpaste that not only cleans and protects teeth but also actively supports the production of morning dopamine and nighttime melatonin, this invention offers a holistic solution for improving both oral and overall health.
[0023] Our toothpaste is formulated with ingredients that, while they can be ingested as nutrients, are designed to be efficiently absorbed through the oral cavity. This approach maximizes the benefits of the ingredients without having to wait for the digestive system to metabolize them, providing a safe, fast, and effective alternative to conventional toothpastes.
[0024] This mouthwash formulation is specially tailored for use in sensitive groups, such as pregnant women, children, and convalescent individuals, and comprises natural and biocompatible ingredients for its safety and efficacy.
[0025] In summary, this invention redefines the concept of oral hygiene by protecting and nourishing the oral microbiota, and adds a new dimension to personal care by supporting systemic health through the oral absorption of essential nutrients. Thus, it addresses key modern health challenges, such as chronic inflammation, insomnia, and circadian rhythm dysregulation, offering a comprehensive solution for improving quality of life.
[0026] Details of the Proposed Innovation
[0027] The proposed invention differs fundamentally from conventional toothpastes by using natural and biocompatible ingredients. These ingredients not only effectively cleanse the oral cavity but also support the balance and health of the oral microbiota. Unlike synthetic ingredients, which can be harsh on the oral mucosa, disrupt the microbiota, and be endocrine disruptors, the ingredients in this invention are designed to work in harmony with the oral ecosystem.
[0028] Thanks to the expertise of the inventor, an orthomolecular scientist and master in evidence-based nutritional supplementation, this invention leverages the unique characteristics of the sublingual cavity. The sublingual mucosa, located beneath the tongue, is known for its ability to rapidly absorb certain nutrients and medications, allowing their direct entry into the bloodstream and bypassing initial hepatic metabolism. This is traditionally used in the sublingual administration of medications such as nitroglycerin and vitamin B12. However, current toothpastes have ignored this pathway, representing a missed opportunity to nourish the body directly through a routine process like oral hygiene.
[0029] The inventor acknowledges that, just as nitroglycerin rapidly reaches the bloodstream when administered sublingually, the synthetic ingredients in current toothpastes are also quickly absorbed. This makes these toothpastes potential toxins that, with continued use, can cause serious health problems by acting as endocrine disruptors and negatively affecting metabolic systems.
[0030] Based on this understanding, the question arises: "Why not use this same absorption mechanism to deliver essential nutrients to the body?" For example, magnesium is a mineral involved in more than 300 enzymatic reactions in the body, and its deficiency, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), affects approximately 90% of the population. The proposed invention allows for the absorption of magnesium and other nutrients directly through the sublingual mucosa, leveraging tooth brushing as a daily opportunity to improve systemic health.
[0031] The inventor has taken into account renowned research, such as that conducted by the doctors awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 2017, which demonstrates how disruption of the circadian rhythm can influence the onset of degenerative diseases, cancer, and autoimmune diseases. This invention aims to optimize the circadian rhythm by delivering essential nutrients through daily oral hygiene, supporting the regulation of internal biological rhythms.
[0032] Furthermore, the inventor has considered the global prevalence of insomnia and poor sleep quality, conditions that have been linked to magnesium deficiencies. This mineral is essential for the production of melatonin, a key neurotransmitter in inducing sleep. By administering magnesium sublingually through mouthwash, this invention not only improves oral health but also contributes to better sleep quality and, consequently, a more balanced overall state of health.
[0033] The inventor has identified chronic low-grade inflammation as an epidemic condition in modern society, exacerbated by the intake of endocrine disruptors and poor sleep quality. This chronic inflammation particularly affects areas of the body with microbiota, such as the gut and oral cavity. Conditions like chronic gingivitis, stomatitis, cheilitis, and tongue inflammation are common manifestations of this low-grade oral inflammation, which can have a significant long-term impact on health if not properly addressed.
[0034] Finally, the inventor has considered that iron intake during the first hours of the day can facilitate the production of dopamine, a neurotransmitter essential for regulating biorhythms and daily activity. This invention proposes an innovative approach to iron administration, using sublingual absorption during the daily oral hygiene routine to optimize dopamine levels and support a healthy biorhythm.
[0035] The present invention offers a significant advance in oral care by differentiating itself from conventional toothpaste products in several key aspects, effectively addressing modern health problems such as sleep deprivation, depression, and anxiety. The innovative elements of the proposal are highlighted below:
[0036] Unlike traditional toothpastes that often contain potentially harmful synthetic ingredients, this formula uses only natural and biocompatible ingredients. These components not only cleanse the oral cavity but also actively promote the balance and health of the oral microbiota, an essential factor for overall well-being. By avoiding harsh chemical agents, the formula protects the integrity of the oral microbiota, crucial for immune health and the prevention of oral and systemic diseases.
[0037] The product is presented as an innovative kit, consisting of two different mouthwashes for use in the morning (AM) and at night (PM), each designed to fulfill specific functions that optimize systemic health:
[0038] • AM Rinse: Formulated for use at the start of the day, this rinse optimizes the production of dopamine, a neurotransmitter essential for energy, motivation, and alertness. Including key nutrients that are efficiently absorbed through the sublingual mucosa, this rinse helps improve mental clarity and focus during daytime activities. Ingredients such as vitamin B12, iron, and stimulating natural extracts enhance the body's ability to generate energy and face daily challenges with vigor.
[0039] • PM Rinse: Designed for nighttime use, this rinse promotes the absorption of magnesium, a critical mineral in the production of melatonin, the neurotransmitter responsible for inducing and regulating sleep. This rinse contributes to restful, high-quality sleep, helping to alleviate insomnia and reduce anxiety and depression associated with inadequate rest. The inclusion of ascorbic acid and other nutrients that facilitate relaxation and rest ensures a smooth transition to sleep. Furthermore, its PM function is linked to AM, because the production of quality dopamine in the morning guarantees quality melatonin at night.
[0040] One of the most innovative features of this invention is the use of sublingual absorption, a process that takes advantage of the unique properties of the oral mucosa to allow for the rapid and effective absorption of nutrients and active compounds directly into the bloodstream. This method, which has been largely ignored by conventional toothpaste manufacturers, offers significantly greater bioavailability by bypassing first-pass metabolism in the liver, ensuring that nutrients such as magnesium, vitamin B12, and other essential compounds are optimally utilized by the body.
[0041] The dual approach of this mouthwash kit not only focuses on oral hygiene but also significantly contributes to overall well-being by synchronizing daily physiological processes. The AM rinse is designed to boost energy and daily activity, while the PM rinse promotes deep, restorative sleep. This synergy between the AM and PM rinses helps regulate the circadian rhythm, which is essential for combating sleep deprivation, reducing chronic inflammation, and alleviating symptoms of depression and anxiety. Furthermore, supporting the oral microbiota and efficiently delivering nutrients can also contribute to improved metabolic health, reducing the risk of chronic diseases.
[0042] In summary, this invention not only redefines oral hygiene by combining natural, microbiota-supporting ingredients with a sublingual delivery system for essential nutrients, but also offers a holistic solution for optimizing mental and physical health. By effectively addressing common health issues such as sleep deprivation, depression, anxiety, and chronic inflammation, this innovation has the potential to significantly improve users' quality of life.

[0141] 3. Molecular Interaction of the Ingredients
[0142] Coconut Oil (10%):
[0143] Coconut oil is primarily a mixture of medium-chain triglycerides, with a high concentration of lauhcotic acid. At the molecular level, lauhcotic acid (C12H24O2) has antimicrobial properties by inserting itself into the lipid membranes of bacteria, causing destabilization and cell lysis. This is particularly effective against Streptococcus mutans, a common bacterium in the oral cavity.
[0144] Sunflower Lecithin (5%): Lecithin is a mixture of phospholipids, primarily phosphatidylcholine (C8H18NO8P). These phospholipids act as emulsifiers, stabilizing oil-and-water mixtures. At the molecular level, phosphatidylcholine binds to the micelles formed by coconut oil and water, creating a stable emulsion that facilitates the penetration of the active ingredients into the oral mucosa.
[0145] Distilled Oregano Water (20%):
[0146] Distilled oregano water contains phenolic compounds such as carvacrol (C10H14O) and thymol (C10H14O), which have potent antimicrobial and antioxidant properties. These compounds interact with the lipid membranes of microbial cells, altering their permeability and causing cell death. In addition, carvacrol acts as a chelating agent, neutralizing free radicals that can cause oxidative damage to the oral mucosa.
[0147] Eucalyptus extract (2%):
[0148] Cineole (C10H18O), the main component of eucalyptus extract, possesses anti-inflammatory and decongestant properties. At the molecular level, cineole acts by inhibiting the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin-1 (IL-1) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), through the modulation of NF-κB signaling pathways.
[0149] Guava Extract (3%):
[0150] Guava is rich in vitamin C (ascorbic acid, C6H8O6) and flavonoids, which act as powerful antioxidants. Vitamin C acts as a cofactor in collagen synthesis, essential for the integrity of the gums and oral mucosa. At the molecular level, vitamin C donates electrons to neutralize free radicals, while flavonoids stabilize reactive oxygen species (ROS), protecting cells from oxidative damage.
[0151] Bitter Orange Seed Oil and Sesame Oil (2% each): These oils are composed primarily of unsaturated fatty acids (such as oleic acid, C18H34O2) and antioxidants. Unsaturated fatty acids interact with cell membranes, improving membrane fluidity and facilitating the absorption of other nutrients. In addition, the antioxidants present in these oils help protect oral cells from oxidative stress.
[0152] Saponins (0.5%):
[0153] Saponins are terpenoid glycosides that reduce the surface tension of water, creating foam. At the molecular level, saponins interact with the lipids in the cell membranes of microorganisms, increasing cell permeability and facilitating the removal of debris and bacteria from the tooth surface.
[0154] Vitamin B12 (0.1% - AM Rinse):
[0155] Vitamin B12 (C63H88CoN14014P) is a cobalamin that acts as a coenzyme in DNA synthesis and red blood cell formation. In the oral mucosa, vitamin B12 can be efficiently absorbed sublingually, where it participates in the synthesis of neurotransmitters such as dopamine, crucial for energy and alertness during the day.
[0156] Magnesium Citrate (5% - PM Rinse):
[0157] Magnesium citrate (C12H10Mg3O14) is a highly bioavailable form of magnesium, an essential mineral involved in more than 300 enzymatic reactions, including the synthesis of melatonin, the neurotransmitter that regulates sleep. At the molecular level, magnesium acts as a cofactor in the transfer of phosphate groups, essential for ATP production and muscle relaxation.
[0158] Ascorbic Acid (3% - PM Rinse):
[0159] Ascorbic acid (C6H8O6) is not only a powerful antioxidant, but it also facilitates magnesium absorption by maintaining it in its ionic form (Mg2+), thus improving its bioavailability. Furthermore, ascorbic acid participates in collagen synthesis, which strengthens the gums and oral mucosa.
[0160] 4. Molecular Interaction and Synergy of Ingredients
[0161] The molecular interaction between the ingredients in both mouthwashes is key to maximizing their efficacy and safety. The base of natural oils and lecithin allows for the formation of a stable emulsion that facilitates the even distribution of the active ingredients in the oral cavity. The sublingual mucosa, rich in capillaries, acts as a direct channel for the absorption of nutrients and bioactive compounds, bypassing initial hepatic metabolism and ensuring high bioavailability.
[0162] In the AM rinse, the combination of vitamin B12, ginger, and cinnamon stimulates metabolism and the production of neurotransmitters like dopamine, increasing energy and focus. The synergy between antioxidants and anti-inflammatories (coconut oil, guava, eucalyptus) strengthens the mouth's natural defenses, maintaining a healthy and balanced environment.
[0163] In the PM rinse, magnesium citrate and ascorbic acid work together to promote muscle relaxation and melatonin synthesis, improving sleep quality. Essential oils and antioxidants work to reduce chronic inflammation and protect the oral microbiota, ensuring restful sleep and supporting cell regeneration overnight.
[0164] 5. Formation of the Final Product
[0165] To form the final product, a cold emulsification process is used to preserve the integrity of the active compounds. The oils and lecithin are first combined to form a base emulsion, to which the extracts and nutrients are gradually added under constant agitation to ensure even distribution. The AM and PM mouthwashes are packaged in opaque bottles to protect photosensitive ingredients, such as vitamin B12 and ascorbic acid, from light degradation. The result is a biphasic (AM and PM) mouthwash that not only cleanses and protects the oral cavity but also acts as a multivitamin supplement, providing key nutrients that improve systemic health, cognitive function, and sleep quality—all through a highly effective sublingual delivery mechanism.
