AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Alkali generation by oral bacteria plays a key role in plaque pH homeostasis and is a major impediment to the development of dental caries, with ammonia production affecting oral health and diseases.
Method used
A toothpaste composition comprising lysine or its salts and arginine or its salts at a weight ratio of 10:1 to 1:3 is used to mitigate dental caries by increasing the pH of oral bacterial mixtures.
Benefits of technology
The combination of lysine and arginine in the toothpaste composition effectively raises the pH of oral bacterial mixtures, mitigating dental caries through synergistic alkali production.
