Disclosed are a liquid type
dentifrice composition primarily containing
silver particles which is drawn out in foam state when used to
brush teeth to prevent the liquid
dentifrice from flowing down during tooth-brushing, resulting in effective and convenient tooth-brushing function and exhibit bactericidal action and protect mouth and teeth from
periodontal disease and other mouth diseases because of original properties of silver ingredients in the
dentifrice composition; and, in addition to, a mousse type dentifrice formulation using the same that improves aesthetic property and product quality thereof. The inventive dentifrice composition primarily containing
silver particles useful for mouthwash comprises: at least one surfactant selected from a group consisting of 0.5 to 3% by weight of SQdium lauryl
sulfate, 0.05 to 1% by weight of
sodium sarcosine laurate, 0.5 to 5% by weight of
alkyl polyglucoside and 0.5 to 3% by weight of
sucrose fatty acid ester; at least one
wetting agent selected from a group consisting of 30 to 80% by weight of
sorbitol solution and 0.5 to 5% by weight of glycerine; at least one solubilizing agent selected from a group consisting of 0.1 to 1% by weight of hydrogenated polyoxyethylene
caster oil and 0.1 to 1% by weight of
polyoxyethylene sorbitan monolaurate effective to solubilize
flavor and active ingredients; 0.01 to 10% by weight of
silver particles with bactericidal action; and the balance of
purified water relative to total weight of the composition. The inventive mousse type dentifrice formulation comprising the above liquid dentifrice composition is prepared by steps of: introducing the dentifrice composition comprising silver particles as essential ingredient into a foam generating receptacle with constant capacity; and drawing the composition in foam form through outlet of the receptacle in order to
brush teeth.
