METHOD FOR PREPARING A ORAL COMPOSITION CONTAINING A SACRED FOR THE INHIBITION OF THE DENTAL PLATE

摘要

The invention provides plaque-inhibitory agents useful in oral compositions such as mouthwashes, toothpastes, mouthrinses, dental creams, toothpowders etc. comprising polysaccharides such as xanthan gum, gum tragacanth (pectin), guar gum, gum karaya, chondroitin sulfate, polygalacturonic acid, sodium alginate and carrageenans of the kappa/lambda configuration. The agents are effective in plaque-inhibiting at concentrations between about 0.0025% and 2.000% on a weight/volume basis.
