BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to new dentifrice compositions having anti-caries activity and containing a polycationic polymer fluoride.
In the following description, "dentifrice composition" is used to mean any solid or liquid composition intended for mouth hygiene, such
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to an antibacterial fluoride varnish which exhibits significant antibacterial activities against Streptococcus mutans, obtained by adding an antibacterial substance to a fluoride varnish that sustainedly releases fluoride over a prolonged period of
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a method for the diagnosis and reduction of dental caries. More specifically, the method of the present invention relates to uses of a Streptococcus mutans monitoring test in association with fluoride and chlorhexidine. More particularly the
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Topical oral medication for the prevention of dental caries has been the subject of scientific investigation since about 1940. With the advent of topical fluorides, the interest in the use of dentifrices for the prevention of dental caries has increased. Studies involving
This invention pertains to compositions that release fluoride ion and that may be readily recharged with additional fluoride ion. These compositions are useful, for example, in dental composites, dental bonding agents, and other resin-based dental materials.

This invention relates to means for preventing dental caries, and is more particularly concerned with a mouth wash preparation especially compounded for use in preventing the development of dental caries. It is an improvement on U.S. Pat. No. 2,913,373, issued Nov. 17, 1959.
It is known that the
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Various fluoride compounds have been suggested and used in compositions used in the oral cavity, such as toothpaste, mouthwash or solutions for professional application, to inhibit dental caries (see, for example, U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,029,191 and 4,078,053). One of the
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
This invention is in the field of compositions for introducing controlled amounts of fluoride ions into the circulatory system. The composition of the present invention is a chewing gum containing sodium fluoride and calcium carbonate in the form
Fluoride-containing compositions, such as solutions or gels, have been known and have been employed for use in professional topical applications to teeth in the oral cavity. Such topical compositions have been employed since studies have indicated that, when fluoride penetrates into tooth enamel

This invention relates to an oral composition. In particular, it relates to an anti-caries, anti-calculus oral composition in which each of the anti-caries agent and the anti-calculus agent does not substantially reduce the effect of the other. In other words, the oral composition of the invention
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to a method of treating the oral cavity with ingestible, non-foaming, nonaqueous liquid and semi-solid, oral hygiene preparations containing a nonionic surfactant, a coating substance insoluble in said surfactant, and a microbially active form of
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to oral compositions for use as dentifrices, topical solutions or pastes, desensitizers, prophylactic pastes, mouthwashes, disintegratable tablets, oral bands, cavity sealers, gels for ultrasonic treatment, gels for iontophoresis, dental flosses,
