ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides compositions for the lysis and killing of microbes in general, and in particular provides oral compositions for the lysis and killing oral bacteria. The compositions of the present invention include a humectant such as glycerol, sorbitol or comparable compounds and provide an in-mouth concentration of such substances from about 20% to about 80% weight/volume in dentifrice preparations, in particular mouthrinses. These compositions further comprises (a) bicarbonate ion at about 0.5% to about 2% wt./vol. and if desired, thiocyanate, chloride or fluoride ion at about 0.5% to about 2% wt./vol. (b) sodium lauroyl sarcosinate or other anionic detergents from about 0.05% to about 1% wt./vol. and (c) Tween 20 or other non-ionic detergents or structurally similar compounds from about 0.01% to about 3% vol./vol. In addition, alcohol may be added up to a level of 15% vol./vol. along with appropriate sweetening and flavoring agents. Water is then added to 100%. The compositions may be introduced in a manner and vehicle suitable for oral cavity administration. This invention also relates to a method of using such compositions for treating and inhibiting dental caries, dental plaque and gingivitis, oral malodor and periodontopathic conditions in mammals, particularly humans, in need of anti-caries, anti-plaque, anti-gingivitis, anti-malodor or anti-periodontopathic therapy. The compositions of the present invention are conventionally formulated into mouthrinses (mouth washes) and the commonly utilized dentifrice treatment agents.
