Patent number: 9271565Abstract: Disclosed are compositions suitable for use with an oral care implement. The compositions provide improved sensory appeal, and comparable reduction in volatile sulfur compounds and antibacterial activity to advanced formula toothpaste formulations. The compositions include a high percentage of antibacterial agent and flavoring, when compared to conventional toothpastes, and some mouth washes formulations, such that only minor amounts of the composition can be delivered to the oral care implement to provide improved reduction in volatile sulfur compounds, antibacterial efficacy, and optionally a cooling sensation.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2010Date of Patent: March 1, 2016Assignee: COLGATE-PALMOLIVE COMPANYInventors: Sarita Mello, Madhusudan Patel, Sharon Kennedy, Thomas Boyd, Evangelia S.

Patent number: 8974772Abstract: An oral care composition having a first phase of clinically efficacious 2,4,4?-trichloro 2?-hydroxydiphenyl ether admixed in a first orally acceptable aqueous vehicle, and a second phase having a stannous salt (such as stannous fluoride) admixed in a second orally acceptable aqueous vehicle. The second phase has no less than 10 molar percent of soluble stannous ion respective to a mathematical sum of moles of the soluble stannous ion and moles of the stannous salt in the second phase. In one embodiment, the two phases are provided in a dual-tube toothpaste oral care kit.Type: GrantFiled: December 28, 2004Date of Patent: March 10, 2015Assignee: Colgate-Palmolive CompanyInventors: Linh Fruge, James R.
