Oral care composition

摘要

Disclosed are oral care compositions, for example dentifrice compositions, comprising an oral care composition comprising an orally acceptable vehicle, metal oxide particles having an average particle size of no greater than a dentin tubule and at least one amino acid capable of chelating the metal oxide. The composition may comprise a polymeric adherent material for adhering the metal oxide particles in the dentin tubule. The metal oxide particles have a median particle size of 5 microns or less, and may comprise zinc oxide.

1. An oral care composition comprising:
an orally acceptable vehicle; a source of metal oxide particles, wherein said metal oxide particles have a median particle size of from 1 to 7 microns;one or more amino acids capable of chelating said metal oxide particles selected from arginine, L-arginine, cysteine, leucine, isoleucine, lysine, L-lysine and serine, wherein the metal oxide comprises zinc oxide; and
further comprising a polymeric adherent material, wherein the metal oxide is encapsulated in the polymeric adherent material.
