FLUORINE-CONTAINING ZEOLITE GRANULE FOR USE IN TOOTHPASTES AND TOOTHPASTE COMPOSITION COMPRISING THE SAME

摘要

Disclosed is a zeolite granule for use in toothpaste and a toothpaste composition containing the same. The zeolite granule includes silica as an abrasive and fluorine as a strength enhancer at the same time. Further, the toothpaste composition has 0.5 to 40 wt% of the zeolite granule. Upon application of the zeolite granule to the toothpaste, the prepared toothpaste is advantageous in terms of superior protection efficacies against teeth cavities and high removal function of plaque and tartar form the teeth, and drastically increased storability. Moreover, in the current invention, there is required no a separate adding process of fluorine to provide resistance to tooth decay upon preparation of the toothpaste composition.
