According to one aspect of the disclosure, a hair care composition is provided that includes from about 1 to about 20 wt. % of an anionic surfactant; from about 0.5 to about 5 wt. % of an amphoteric surfactant; from about 0.1 to about 7 wt. % of a nonionic surfactant; from about 0.1 to about 5 wt. % of a thickening agent, wherein the thickening agent is a natural gum; and from about 0.05 to about 4.5 wt. % of a silicone wherein the hair composition is an emulsion and all weight percentages are based on the total weight of the hair care composition. Additionally, the hair care composition may have a weight ratio for the total amount of anionic surfactant to the total amount of amphoteric surfactant that is about 5:1 to about 20:1.

Abstract: An oral care composition comprising high water oral care compositions comprising an orally acceptable carrier, zinc phosphate, a first stannous ion source (i.e., stannous fluoride), and a second stannous ion source (i.e., stannous chloride). Methods and uses for this composition are also described throughout.

Abstract: Technologies are disclosed for detection and display of an indication of a gingivitis condition and/or a periodontal pocket assessment of a subject's oral cavity via a digital representation of the oral cavity. Using scan data of the oral cavity, one or more teeth in the oral cavity may be indicated. A first assessment location proximate to a first tooth of the one or more teeth may be indicated. A first image may be generated that may include the first assessment location and one or more first data channels. The one or more first data channels may comprise color data and topological information corresponding to the first assessment location. Using one or more machine-learning algorithms, a modified gingival index (MGI) value and/or a periodontal pocket depth assessment may be determined and displayed for the first assessment location based on the first image and the one or more first data channels.

Abstract: A squeezable tube dispenser including a body, a nozzle, and a closure component. The body has an interior cavity for containing a substance. The nozzle is coupled to the body adjacent to an open top end of the body. The closure component includes a cover member that defines a cover cavity and a cap member protruding from an inner surface of the cover member into the cover cavity. The cap member defines a cap cavity. The cap member is detachably coupled to the nozzle via a friction fit with the nozzle nesting within the cap cavity of the cap member. The body and the cover member of the closure component are formed predominantly from a fibrous material and the nozzle and the cap of the closure component are formed from a plastic material. The squeezable tube dispenser has no more than 15% by weight of plastic.
