Oral care compositions comprising fluoride
Oral care compositions and/or unit-dose oral care compositions with a fluoride ion source. Oral care compositions and/or unit-dose oral care compositions with a high average fluoride ion uptake. Oral care compositions with one or more web forming materials, a calcium ion source, and a fluoride ion source with a high average fluoride uptake.
1 . A unit-dose oral care composition comprising:
(a) a fibrous composition comprising web forming material; and
(b) a non-fibrous composition comprising a fluoride ion source,
wherein the unit-dose oral care composition is a solid unit-dose oral care composition.
2 . The unit-dose oral care composition of claim 1 , wherein the fibrous composition comprises a first web and a second web, and the non-fibrous composition is between the first web and the second web.
3 . The unit-dose oral care composition of claim 1 , wherein the fibrous composition is folded on top of the non-fibrous composition.
4 . The unit-dose oral care composition of claim 1 , wherein the fluoride ion source comprises sodium fluoride, sodium monofluorophosphate, stannous fluoride, amine fluoride, or combinations thereof.
5 . The unit-dose oral care composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition comprises from about 0.01% to about 10%, by weight of the unit-dose oral care composition, of a metal ion source, wherein the metal ion source comprises stannous ion source, zinc ion source, or combinations thereof.
6 . The unit-dose oral care composition of claim 1 , wherein the unit-dose oral care composition comprises from about 1% to about 50%, by weight of the unit-dose oral care composition, of the web forming material.
7 . The unit-dose oral care composition of claim 6 , wherein the web forming material comprises starch, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, polyethylene oxide, carboxymethylcellulose, polyacrylic acid, polyvinyl ether maleic acid copolymer, or combinations thereof.
8 . The unit-dose oral care composition of claim 1 , wherein the unit-dose oral care composition has from about 0.01% to about 10%, by weight of the unit-dose oral care composition, of the fluoride ion source.
9 . The unit-dose oral care composition of claim 1 , wherein the unit-dose oral care composition has at least about a 1500 ppm fluoride uptake.
10 . The unit-dose oral care composition of claim 1 , wherein the unit-dose oral care composition comprises from about 0.01% to about 40%, by weight of the unit-dose oral care composition, of a calcium ion source.
11 . The unit-dose oral care composition of claim 10 , wherein the calcium ion source comprises calcium abrasive, calcium salt, or combinations thereof.
12 . The unit-dose oral care composition of claim 10 , wherein the unit-dose oral care composition has at least about a 1000 ppm average fluoride uptake.
13 . The unit-dose oral care composition of claim 10 , wherein the fibrous composition comprises the calcium ion source.
14 . The unit-dose oral care composition of claim 10 , wherein the calcium ion source comprises a calcium salt, and the unit-dose oral care composition further comprises an abrasive.
15 . The unit-dose oral care composition of claim 1 , further comprising an abrasive.
16 . The unit-dose oral care composition of claim 1 , wherein the unit-dose oral care composition comprises a salivary fluoride pK AUC that is at least 60% of a reference salivary fluoride pK AUC of a reference standard toothpaste having a reference treatment mass in a range of about 1 g to about 1.25 g when the unit-dose oral care composition is dosed according to manufacturer instructions.
17 . The unit-dose oral care composition of claim 16 , wherein the unit-dose oral care composition comprises a salivary fluoride pK AUC that is at least 80% of the reference salivary fluoride pK AUC.
