Abstract: An oral treatment composition that includes a carrier, an active agent and a silicon dioxide compound. The active agent can be a variety of compositions, such as dental whitening or bleaching agents, desensitizing agents, antimicrobials, anti-plaque agents, remineralizing agents, anti-tartar agents, mouth fresheners, and anesthetics. Optionally, a processing aid can be added to the composition to streamline manufacture of the gel. The composition can be formed as a bead in a dental tray so that when a user applies the dental tray to their dental arch, the bead readily spreads over the surfaces of the teeth without the user having to supply significant force to achieve such spreading.

Abstract: An composition for application to a disordered tissue, the composition including an antipathogenic agent, a healing agent and an optional soothing agent. The antipathogenic agent can include cineole, and the healing agent can include an amino acid such as L-arginine or L-carnosine. The cineole can be of dual function, for example, it can operate as an antipathogenic agent, and also operate to enhance penetration of at least one of the antipathogenic agent, healing agent and/or soothing agent into the disordered tissue, which can be skin of a subject. The disordered tissue can be afflicted by an infection, for example, a Type I herpes infection, and can be in the form of a cold sore. The composition can be in a form, such as a cream or a lip balm, adapted for topical application to the disordered tissue. A method for treating the disordered tissue with the composition is also provided.
