METHODS OF INHIBITING NEUTROPHIL RECRUITMENT TO THE GINGIVAL CREVICE

摘要

Methods of increasing proteins that reduce signals associated with neutrophil recruitment and reducing proteins that induce neutrophil recruitment within an individual's gingival crevice are disclosed. The methods comprise applying to the individual's oral cavity in an amount effective to increase proteins that reduce signals associated with neutrophil recruitment and reduce proteins that induce neutrophil recruitment within an individual's gingival crevice, an oral care composition comprising: zinc oxide, zinc citrate, stannous fluoride, and optionally arginine and/or zingerone.
