Abstract: A method of making a translucent cleaning composition is disclosed. The method includes providing a perfume; providing a hydrogen bond receiving compound; providing a hydrogen bond providing compound; combining the hydrogen bond receiving compound with the hydrogen bond providing compound to create a eutectic liquid; adding the perfume to the eutectic liquid to create a perfumed eutectic liquid; and adjusting the pH of the perfumed eutectic liquid to above 6.0.

Abstract: Water-soluble films including a polyvinyl alcohol polymer (PVOH) and one or more eutectic solvent pairs (eutectic solvent) in predefined ratios.

Abstract: A cleaning composition is disclosed. The cleaning composition includes a hydroxy acid, a hydrogen bond acceptor, and a surfactant. The hydroxy acid and hydrogen bond acceptor are present at a molar ratio of from about 5:1 to about 1.5:1.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods for reducing the staining of dentifrice composition containing stannous comprising administering to a subject the dentifrice composition. The dentifrice composition is a dual phase dentifrice and is contained in physically separated compartments of a dentifrice dispenser. The first dentifrice composition comprises an effective amount of one or more linear polyphosphates having an average chain length of about 4 or more and has a total water content of up to about 20%. The second dentifrice composition comprises an effective amount of stannous ions. The molar ratio of polyphosphate anion to stannous ion is from about 0.2:1 to about 5:1 and the efficacy of the stannous ion in the dentifrice is not reduced by the polyphosphate. The dentifrice composition may alternatively be a single phase dentifrice. The single phase dentifrice will comprise an effective amount of one or more linear polyphosphates having an average chain length of about 4 or more and an effective amount of a stannous ion.

Abstract: The present invention relates to oral compositions comprising a stannous ion source, a fluoride ion source, and a polymeric mineral surface active agent that binds stannous, said compositions providing adequate therapeutic efficacy with minimal side effects of tooth staining and astringency. The composition simultaneously provides reduction and control of supragingival calculus. The present oral care compositions may be formulated as single phase or dual phase compositions. The present invention also provides a method for effective delivery of stannous-containing compositions with minimal side effects of tooth staining or astringency and with effective tartar control by administering to a subject a stable dentifrice composition comprising a clinically effective amount of stannous fluoride and/or other stannous salts in combination with a fluoride ion source and a polymeric mineral surface active agent, preferably a phosphate- or phosphonate-containing polymer.
