  • Publication number: 20060193792
    Abstract: Liquid dentifrice compositions are provided which give improved cleaning performance and flavour display when used in the small amounts that can be dispensed onto a typical electric toothbrush head. The liquid dentifrice has a viscosity of less than about 500 Pa·s at 0.1 s?1 at 25° C. Representative compositions include greater than about 2% by weight of a surfactant; greater than about 1.2% flavour and greater than 50% liquid carrier materials, including controlled amounts of water and humectants, or alternatively polyoxyethylene thickeners.
