Abstract: One embodiment of the invention is directed to a method of preventing, reducing, or eliminating at least one negative effect of oxidative damage, such as an oral disease, caused by a dental device in the mouth of a patient. Another embodiment relates to a method of preventing, reducing, or eliminating at least one negative effect of inflammation. The method may include applying topically to a soft oral tissue in the patient an oral antioxidant composition. The antioxidant composition may include between 0.0001% and 5.0% w/w or at least one antioxidant, wherein the at least one antioxidant includes a natural phytochemcial antioxidant, a flavonoid, an anthocyanidin, a dihydrochalcone, a phenylpropanoid, a chalcone, a curcuminoid, a tannin, a stilbenoid, a coumarin, a carotenoid, or a vitamin, and an orally pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The pH of the oral antioxidant composition may be at least 5.0.

Abstract: One embodiment of the invention is directed to an oral antioxidant composition including between 0.0001% and 5.0% w/w antioxidant, wherein the antioxidant includes cinnamic acid derivative, tetrahydrocurcuminoids, or phloretin and an orally pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The composition may have a pH of at least 5.0. According to still further embodiments, the composition may also include between 0.0001% and 5.0% w/w of one or two more additional antioxidants that include cinnamic acid derivative, tetrahydrcurcuminoids, phloretin, or a stilbene derivative. In more particular embodiments, the cinnamic acid derivative may include trans-ferulic acid, the tetrahydrocurcuminoids may include tetrahydrcurcuminoids CG™, or the stilbene derivative may include resveratrol. Other embodiments may relate to methods of treating or preventing an oral disease by applying topically an antioxidant composition as described above.
