<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a new therapeutic agent for suppressing dental caries. <P>SOLUTION: The therapeutic agent comprises (a) a confectionery composition product, provided that the product comprises (i) a confectionery carrier present in an amount corresponding to 5-99 wt.% of the total weight of the product, (ii) at least one sweetener present in an amount corresponding to 0.001-95 wt.% of the total weight of the product and (iii) casein phosphopeptide-calcium phosphate in an amount corresponding to 0.5-5 wt.% of the total weight of the product. (b) The product is chewed for 10 min per session, 3 sessions per day and is consumed for a time sufficient for slowing progression and enhancing regression of carious lesions with a success rate that is 16.9% higher than that achieved by chewing a sugarless confectionery composition product free of casein phosphopeptide-calcium phosphate. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
