Definitions
- the invention relates to a dentifrice composition for cleaning teeth.
- Dentifrice compositions for promoting the health and appearance of the mouth, and especially of the teeth and gums, are well-known. Such compositions generally contain polishing agents, humectants and thickeners.
- dentifrices is that of providing proper texture. Special problems arise when the polishing agent is based upon a silica abrasive. Upon extrusion from the tube, a dentifrice must retain body. Too frequently, however, the extruded segment slumps. There is poor cohesion. From its perch atop the brush, the dentifrice rapidly spreads forth drooping down into the bristles. A related problem is that elegant toothpastes are expected to break sharply upon extrusion from the tube. The ribbon should not string out; it should have shortness of texture.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a dentifrice that is in the form of a silica-based gel having good clarity but low stringiness and being free of weeping.
- a dentifrice composition comprising:
- a thickener system comprising:
- the first critical component of the thickener system is a carboxymethyl cellulose
- CMC low viscosity
- the CMC will have a degree of substitution ranging from about 0.65 to about 0.95.
- the most preferred CMC is one designated 7L2P available from the Aqualon
- the second critical component of the thickener system is that of a low viscosity hydroxyethyl cellulose (hereinafter HEC).
- HEC low viscosity hydroxyethyl cellulose
- This gum will exhibit a viscosity ranging from about 75 to about 200 cps, preferably between 100 and 150 cps, at 25°C when dissolved at 5% in water in water and measured with a Brookfield Viscometer utilizing Spindle No. 1,
- the degree of substitution may range from about 0.5 to about 3.0, but optimally is about 2.5.
- the most suitable commercially available gum is Natrosol 250L available from the Aqualon Company.
- Amounts of each of the gums may range anywhere from about 0.01 to about 1.5%, preferably from about 0.1 to about 1%, optimally between about 0.15 and 0.75% by weight.
- Relative weight ratios of the CMC to HEC may range from about 5 : 1 to about 1:5, preferably between about 3 : 1 and about 1:3.
- Humectants are polyols which may include glycerol, sorbitol, propylene glycol, lactitol, xylitol, polyethylene glycol,
- systems of this invention will exclude polyethylene glycol and substitute therefore glycerol, sorbitol and/or a small amount of hydrogenated corn syrup.
- amount of humectant will range from about 25 to about 90%, preferably from about 40 to 70% by weight.
- the most important nonhumectant components in toothpastes are abrasives.
- the abrasives useful in the dentifrice compositions presently disclosed must have certain
- Abrasives which are especially useful in clear dentifrices are the silica xerogels described in Pader et al, U.S.
- Silica xerogels yield dentifrice compositions which result in surprisingly good cleaning and polishing characteristics when applied topically to the teeth.
- silica xerogels produce a high luster without excessive enamel or dentin abrasion.
- These silicas are also highly compatible with most common dentifrice ingredients, including oral health agents, and may be formulated to produce transparent or translucent pastes.
- silica xerogels useful in the present dentifrice compositions are synthetic, amorphous, porous silica xerogels having an average particle diameter in the range from about 2 to about 30 microns, preferably in the range from about 3 to about 15 microns.
- Silica xerogels suitable for use in clear dentifrice compositions are commercially available.
- One suitable xerogel is marketed under the trade name Syloid 63X. This material has an average particle diameter of about 8 to 10 microns.
- Suitable silicas include Syloid 63, which has an average particle diameter of about 5 microns, Syloid 73, which has an average particle diameter of about 5 microns, Syloid 63XX, which has an average particle size of about 10 microns, and Syloid 404, which has an average particle diameter of about 6 microns. All of the above silica xerogels in the Syloid series are available from W.R.
- abrasive materials suitable for use in the present dentifrice compositions is the class of silicas known as precipitated silicas (aerogels). Those
- precipitated silicas that are applicable are, in the broadest terms, prepared by the admixture of a mineral acid and sodium silicate solution to form a precipitate followed by washing, drying and milling of the precipitate.
- the products are amorphous, hard particles which can be made with differing degrees of abrasivity.
- One such precipitated silica is disclosed by Wason, U.S. Patent 4,272,509.
- precipitated silicas and the methods of their preparation are disclosed in U.S. Patents 4,272,509 and 3,864,470.
- a most preferred commercially available precipitated silica is Zeo 49 available from the J.M. Huber Corporation,
- the amount of abrasive is limited to those amounts which safely provide good polishing and cleaning and which, when combined with common toothpaste ingredients of a
- This amount generally lies in the range of about 5% to about 50% by weight of the total dentifrice.
- the preferred range is from about 6 to about 35% and the most preferred range is about 7 to about 25% by weight of the dentifrice.
- the amount of water will range from about 5% to about 60%, preferably between about 10 and 35%, optimally between about 15 and 30% by weight.
- Surfactants are normally also included in compositions according to the present invention. These surfactants may be of the anionic, nonionic, cationic or amphoteric type. Most preferred are sodium lauryl sulfate, sodium
- dodecylbenzene sulfonate and sodium laurylsarcosinate dodecylbenzene sulfonate and sodium laurylsarcosinate.
- Surfactants are usually present in an amount from about 0.5 to 5% by weight.
- Tartar control agents may be incorporated into compositions of this invention, especially effective will be agents containing phosphorous.
- Inorganic phosphorous tartar control agents may include any of the water-soluble
- pyrophosphates such as disodium pyrophosphate, dipotassium pyrophosphate and mixtures of these with tetrapotassium pyrophosphates or tetrasodium pyrophosphates.
- Organic phosphorous compounds that may serve as tartar control agents include zinc citrate and polyphosphonates such as disodium ethane-1-hydroxy-1,1-diphosphonate (EHDP), methanediphosphonic acid, and 2-phosphonobutane-1,2,4-tricarboxylic acid.
- EHDP disodium ethane-1-hydroxy-1,1-diphosphonate
- methanediphosphonic acid methanediphosphonic acid
- 2-phosphonobutane-1,2,4-tricarboxylic acid 2-phosphonobutane-1,2,4-tricarboxylic acid.
- Fluoride sources include sodium fluoride, potassium fluoride, calcium fluoride, stannous fluoride, stannous monofluorophosphate and sodium
- the anticaries agent will be present in an amount from about 0.05 to about 3% by weight, preferably 0.2 to 1% by weight of the second component.
- Sweetening agents such as sodium saccharin, sodium
- Acesulfam K, aspartame, sucrose and the like may be included at levels from about 0.1 to 5% by weight.
- Other additives may also be incorporated including
- preservatives silicones, other synthetic or natural polymers such as Gantrez S-97, and antigingivitis actives such as trichlosan. Furthermore, where it is desired to have an opaque
- Typical of the present invention is a clear gel toothpaste having the formulation outlined in Table I. Table I
- Instron crosshead necessary for breakage of the toothpaste strand is noted as the measure of stringiness.
- Benecel M042 were all unstable. Liquid separated from these toothpastes within three months of storage. From Table IV it is seen that by itself CMC 9M31XF, i.e. medium viscosity grade, had the highest stringiness value. Of the three least stringy samples (Natrosol 250L, 250M, 250HH), only the one of low viscosity did not get substantially
- the gum of choice was Natrosol 250L exhibiting a stable/nonseparating paste while having low stringiness that did not become significantly stringier upon additional shear.
