PRECIPITATED SILICON DIOXIDE ABRASIVE COMPOSITIONS HAVING SUPERIOR COMPATIBILITY WITH ANTI-PLAQUE AND THERAPEUTIC FLUORIDE AGENTS FOR DENTIFRICE APPLICATIONS; DENTIFRICE THEREOF; AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME

摘要

Novel precipitated silicon dioxide abrasive compositions which can be incorporated into therapeutic toothpaste compositions containing soluble fluoride salts and anti-plaque, anti-microbials are disclosed. The abrasives comprise low structure precipitated silicon dioxides which have been reacted with about 10 to 300 parts per million alkaline earth metal ion, particularly calcium, have a sulfate ion less than 0.25 % and an adjusted pH of 4.0 to 7.5. Also provided are methods for preparation of the novel silicon dioxide abrasives and resulting toothpaste formulations containing such abrasives.
