Definitions
- the present invention relates to a desensitizing dentifrice composition which eliminates or reduces the discomfort and pain associated with dentinal hypersensitivity and more particularly to a two-component desensitizing dental composition containing potassium salt desensitizing agents.
- Dentinal hypersensitivity is defined as acute, localized tooth pain in response to physical stimulation of the dentine surface as by thermal (hot or cold) osmotic, tactile combination of thermal, osmotic and tactile stimulation of the exposed dentin.
- Dentinal tubules lead from the pulp to the cementum. When the surface cementum of the tooth root is eroded, the dentinal tubules become exposed to the external environment. The exposed dentinal tubules provide a pathway for transmission of fluid flow to the pulpal nerves, the transmission induced by changes in temperature, pressure and ionic gradients.
- potassium salts are effective in the treatment of dentinal hypersensitivity.
- U.S. 3,863,006 discloses that toothpastes containing potassium salts such as potassium nitrate desensitize the teeth after tooth brushing for several weeks. It is believed by those skilled in the art that an elevation in the extracellular potassium concentration in the vicinity of pulpal nerves underlying sensitive dentin is responsible for the therapeutic desensitizing effect of topically applied oral products which contain potassium nitrate. Due to passive diffusion of potassium ion into and out of the open dentine tubules, repeated application of the active ingredient is necessary to build up the necessary concentration in the vicinity of the pulpal nerves.
- potassium salts such as potassium nitrate are highly effective in the treatment of dentine hypersensitivity, the art continuously seeks means to improve the efficacy of such treatment.
- the present invention is based upon the discovery that when a dual component dentifrice comprised of separately housed dentifrice components of acidic and alkaline pH at least one component containing a potassium salt are combined before use, the combined composition exhibits unexpected improved effectiveness when applied to the teeth in obturating dentinal tubules with concomitant desensitization of teeth as compared to single component compositions of neutral pH.
- a method for the treatment of dentinal hypersensitivity using a multicomponent dentifrice comprised of two separately housed, semi-solid aqueous components; the first component containing a fluoride salt as the source of fluoride ions, in an orally acceptable vehicle having an alkaline pH of at least about 8.0 and preferably about 9.0 to about 10.5 and, the second component containing an acid to provide an acid pH from about 1.0 to about 6.0 preferably about 1.0 to about 3.0 in an orally acceptable vehicle, at least one component containing a fluoride ion releasing compound such as a water soluble, potassium ion releasable compound whereby upon mixing and combination of the components, a mixture having a pH of from about 6.5 to about 9.0, preferably about 7.0 to about 8.5, is formed whereby upon repeated application of the mixture to the teeth increased relief from dentinal hypersensitivity is experienced by the user.
- a fluoride salt as the source of fluoride ions

- Dentifrice I A two component desensitizing dentifrice of the present invention was prepared, designated Dentifrice I, Component A having an alkaline pH and a Component B having an acid pH.
- the ingredients and pH of Components A and B are listed in Table I, below. TABLE I
- Dentifrice I the glycerin, polyethylene glycol and organic thickeners were dispersed in a conventional mixer until the mixture became a slurry, which was smooth in appearance. Color and sweetener were dispersed in this slurry before the addition of water.
- Component A potassium nitrate was then dispersed in this slurry.
- Component B phosphoric acid was then dispensed in the gel phase. This mixture was mixed for 20 to 30 minutes producing a homogeneous gel phase. The mixture was added to a vacuum mixer and cooled below 105°F.
- Zeodent 115, Zeodent 165 and sodium bicarbonate were then added and mixed for 10 to 30 minutes at high speed under a vacuum of about 50 mm Hg, providing a homogenous mixture.

- Table II indicate that Dentifrice I has a pronounced effect on reducing flow relative to the comparative commercial dentifrice, Dentifrice C, and the phosphate buffer solution Control. The reductions in flow are believed to be due to occlusion of the dentinal tubules.
- the occlusive state produced by the Dentifrice I treatment is considered by the art to be predictive of clinical dentinal hypersensitivity reduction (M. Brarmstrom and A. Astrom, J. Dent. Res. (1964) 43, 619. 625.
- the treated disks which were subjected to the flow measurements were subjected to Electron Spectroscopy for Chemical Analysis (ESCA) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) analysis. Before these analysis were conducted, the disks were rinsed with deionized water to remove the phosphate buffer solution and dried.
- ESA Electron Spectroscopy for Chemical Analysis
- SEM Scanning Electron Microscopy
- the surface composition of the dentin disks above evaluated using ESCA is recorded in Table III as an average for each group.
- the percentage of nitrogen on the dentin surface is generally attributed to the amount of exposed collagen material which is an integral part of the dentin structure. A reduced amount of nitrogen is indicative of a surface coating.
