Abstract: Disclosed are oral compositions comprising a total flavor system and one or more aqueous carriers, wherein the oral composition is a dentifrice or a mouthrinse. The total flavor system comprises a traditional oral care flavor system and a dairy-creme component.

Abstract: Disclosed are oral compositions and methods for reducing plaque in a human or lower animal subject comprising applying to the teeth of the subject an oral composition comprising one or more hydrophobic solvents having one or more characteristics selected from the group consisting of a hydrogen bonding parameter of less than about 7.0 and a water solubility of less than about 10%; one or more non-polymeric surfactants wherein the weight ratio of hydrophobic solvent to non-polymeric surfactant is from about 30:1 to about 1:2; and one or more aqueous carriers; wherein the oral composition is in the form of a toothpaste or mouthrinse, is non-ingestible, and has a pH of from about 5.0 to about 9.5.

Abstract: Disclosed are oral compositions and methods for reducing plaque in a human or lower animal subject comprising applying to the teeth of the subject one or more hydrophobic solvents having one or more characteristics selected from the group consisting of a hydrogen bonding parameter of less than about 7.0 and a water solubility of less than about 10%; one or more polymeric surfactants wherein the weight ratio of hydrophobic solvent to polymeric surfactant is from about 10:1 to about 1:20; and one or more aqueous carriers; wherein the oral composition is in the form of a toothpaste or mouthrinse, is non-ingestible, and has a pH of from about 5.0 to about 9.5.

Abstract: Pharmaceutical composition suitable for coating comprising a composition for oral administration in unit dosage form wherein said composition has been coated with from about 0.01% to about 10% by weight of the composition with a volatile aromatic compound selected from the group consisting of 3-1-menthoxy propane-1,2-diol, N-substituted-p-menthane-3-carboxamides and acyclic carboxamides and mixtures thereof.

Abstract: The method of manufacturing comprises the steps of: (a) preparing a mixture of a favor system, one or more humectants, and one or more aqueous carrier materials; (b) adding tetrasodium pyrophosphate and calcium peroxide, all at once or in portions, under conditions wherein less than about 20% of the total pyrophosphate and calcium peroxide are dissolved in the mixture; and wherein further any remaining aqueous carrier materials not added to the mixture during step (a) are added in whole or in part in step (b) or thereafter, either by themselves or with any remaining amount of the tetrasodium pyrophosphate or calcium peroxide, under conditions such that less than about 20% of the total pyrophosphate and calcium peroxide are dissolved in the mixture; (c) heating the mixture to a temperature range of from about 38.degree. C. (100.degree. F.) to about 71.degree. C. (160.degree. F.) and preferably to a temperature range of from about 52.degree. C. (125.degree. F.) to about 57.degree. C. (135.degree. F.
