  • Thickening silica as fluoride carrier for tailored delivery and slow release
    Patent number: 11883511
    Abstract: Disclosed are oral care compositions comprising a thickening silica and a fluoride ion source, wherein fluoride is absorbed on the thickening silica and wherein the pH of the composition is below 5.5, as well as to methods of using these compositions. The thickening silica may have a particle size distribution (D95) less than or equal to 7 ?m and a BET surface area of greater than or equal to 150 m2/g.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 3, 2020
    Date of Patent: January 30, 2024
    Assignee: GABA International Holding GmbH

  • Oral care composition comprising stannous and nitrate ions
    Patent number: 8926950
    Abstract: An oral care composition comprising a) an aqueous phase; b) stannous ions solvated in the aqueous phase; c) nitrates solvated in the aqueous phase; wherein the total content of said nitrates is such that the molar amount of nitrogen in the aqueous phase, measurable as nitrate, is less than 2 times the molar amount of solvated stannous ions; and d) a flavor substance, which is preferably solvated, dispersed or emulgated in the aqueous phase. Disclosed are also containers containing the composition; and processes and uses for stabilizing stannous ions against oxidation, using nitrates.
