Abstract: The present invention provides an oral care composition comprising, based on the total weight of the composition: (a) 15 to 24 weight % calcium carbonate; (b) 0.9 to 2.5 weight % cellulose ether thickening agent; (c) 7 to 10 weight % thickening silica; and (d) at least 40 weight % water.

Abstract: The present invention provides an oral care composition comprising, by total weight of the composition: (a) 15 to 35 weight % calcium carbonate; (b) 0.5 to 2 weight % cellulose ether thickening agent; (c) 1 to 6 weight % clay thickening agent; and (d) at least 35 weight % water; wherein, when the composition comprises less than 28 weight % calcium carbonate and less than 4 weight % clay thickening agent, the cellulose ether thickening agent is present in an amount of greater than 1 weight %.

Abstract: The present invention provides oral care compositions comprising, by total weight of the composition: (a) 15 to 35 weight % calcium carbonate; and (b) 5 to 25 weight % talc. In one aspect, the total concentration of talc and calcium carbonate in the composition is greater than 35 weight %. In another aspect where the total concentration of talc and calcium carbonate is 35 weight % or less, the composition also includes an additional structuring agent, which comprises at least one of: (i) a cellulose ether thickening agent; and (ii) an inorganic thickening agent selected from thickening silica, a clay thickening agent, and mixtures thereof.

Abstract: Oral care compositions which provide enhanced flavour release, and which comprise a multilayer film and an orally acceptable carrier. The carrier contains a first flavour and the film has a centre layer containing a second flavour disposed between two outer surface layers. The first and second flavours may be identical or different. Each layer for the film may comprise a film forming polymer, e.g. hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose. The outer layers may comprise a release modulating agent, e.g. polyvinyl acetate or hydroxyethyl cellulose. The carrier may be a dentifrice or mouthwash.

Abstract: A post foaming oral care mousse is provided by the invention. The mousse includes at least a dentifrice composition and a compressed liquid propellant having a boiling point less than ?10° C. The liquid propellant is blended into the mousse as an emulsion, and the emulsion is adapted to be dispensed from a container as a gel that foams after a time delay. The mousse has a viscosity of less than 30,000 centipoise when measured prior to the addition of the propellant. Preferably, the mousse expands at least 100 vol % in less than 5 seconds upon exposure to atmospheric pressure.

Abstract: A peroxide-containing dual component tooth-whitening system providing enhanced whitening efficacy, minimal gingival irritation, and tooth sensitivity is described. The system is comprised of a first component containing a peroxide compound and a peroxide-compatible abrasive and a second component containing an alkaline compound. When the components are combined and contact the surface of a tooth an enhanced whitening effect is obtained with minimal tooth sensitivity and gum irritation. A desensitizer compound, a color indicator, and a stabilizing carrier can be included in the system. In certain embodiments, the composition is substantially free of chelating agents.
