Definitions
- the present invention relates to a delivery system for applying and delivering an oral care substance or composition to oral surfaces including the tooth enamel.
- the composition forms a film on the surface to which it has been applied and provides sustained release of the oral care substance from the film for prolonged therapeutic, prophylactic, and/or cosmetic benefits.
- the present invention relates to systems comprising a removable backing strip to facilitate the application of compositions comprising organosiloxane resins for delivering oral care substances to the tooth enamel.
- the compositions herein may further provide sustained release benefits to other oral surfaces, such as the gingival and mucosal tissues, as well as to the surfaces of the teeth.
- Oral care products by which various oral care substances or actives can be delivered to the soft and hard tissues of the oral cavity have previously been known.
- oral care products include, for example, brushing aids such as dentifrice products for delivery of anti-caries actives such as fluoride or other actives for the reduction of the bacteria that lead to the formation of plaque, and mouthwashes containing breath freshening actives and/or anti-bacterial actives.
- bleaching agents such as peroxide that can be applied directly to the surfaces of the teeth, i.e., to the tooth enamel, have been developed.
- the above systems are water-soluble, i.e., they are readily dissolved by saliva, generally within about 1-3 hours after application. Therefore, their degree of durability is low, and they cannot provide long-term delivery of the active ingredient that is present in the composition.
- their water- soluble nature precludes them from being used with oral care actives that would be unstable in water-based films.
- Sodium percarbonate is one example of such an active; it would be unstable in the high pH environment of an aqueous-based film.
- barrier coating may offer a benefit in terms of enhanced durability, it requires the use of special equipment and complex application; thus, it cannot be performed at home and cannot be used for self-treatment.
- the present invention is directed to a delivery system for delivering an oral care substance to the oral cavity, the delivery system comprising: (a) a removable backing strip having sufficient flexibility so as to be readily conformable to an oral surface when the delivery system is placed thereagainst; and (b) an oral care composition applied to the strip of material such that when the delivery system is placed on the oral surface the oral care composition contacts the oral surface, the oral care composition comprising: (i) an organosiloxane resin; (ii) a rheology modifier; and (iii) at least one oral care substance; wherein the oral care composition remains on the oral surface after the backing strip is removed.
- the present invention is also directed to such systems in which the oral care composition further comprises fluid diorganopolysiloxane-based polymers.
- Such compositions may further comprise carriers for solubilizing the organosiloxane resin and the fluid diorganopolysiloxane-based polymers.
- the present invention is still further directed to methods of using the delivery systems herein.

- FIGS. 1 and 2 there is shown a first preferred embodiment of the present invention, generally indicated as 10, representing a delivery system for applying and delivering an oral care composition to an oral surface.
- Delivery system 10 has a backing strip of material 12, which is initially substantially flat.
- an oral care composition 14 is an oral care composition 14, as described herein.
- the oral care composition 14 is homogeneous, uniformly and continuously coated onto the backing strip 12, as shown in FIG. 3.
- oral care composition 14 may alternatively be a laminate or separated layers of components, an amorphous mixture of components, separate stripes or spots or other patterns of different components, or a combination of these structures including a continuous coating of oral care composition 14 along a longitudinal axis of a portion of the backing strip 12.
- a backing strip 12 may have shallow pockets 18 formed therein. When oral care composition 14 is coated on a composition-coated side of backing strip 12, additional oral care composition 14 fills shallow pockets 18 to provide reservoirs of additional oral care composition 14.
- FIGS. 5 and 6 show a delivery system 24 of the present invention conformed to a surface of a tooth and plurality of adjacent teeth during the application of the delivery system herein.
- Embedded in adjacent soft tissue 20 are a plurality of adjacent teeth 22.
- Adjacent soft tissue is herein defined as soft tissue surfaces surrounding the tooth structure including: papilla, marginal gingiva, gingival sulculus, inter dental gingiva, gingival gum structure on lingual and buccal surfaces up to and including muco-ginival junction and the pallet.
- delivery system 24 represents a backing strip 12 and an oral care composition 14, with oral care composition 14 on the side of the backing strip 12 the is facing tooth 22.
- Oral care composition 14 may be pre- applied to the backing strip 12, or may be applied to the backing strip 12 by the delivery system user.
- the backing strip 12 has a thickness and flexural stiffness which enable it to conform to the contoured surfaces of tooth 22 and to adjacent soft tissue 20 during application of the oral care composition 14.
- the backing strip has sufficient flexibility to form to the contours of the oral surface, in this figure the surface being a plurality of adjacent teeth.
- the backing strip is also readily conformable to tooth surfaces and to the interstitial tooth spaces without permanent deformation during application.
- FIGS. 7 and 8 show a delivery system 24 of the present invention applied to both front and rear surfaces of a plurality of adjacent teeth 22 as well as to adjacent soft tissue 20, during application of the oral care composition.
- Delivery system 24 represents a backing strip 12 and an oral care composition 14, with oral care composition 14 on the side of backing strip 12 that is facing tooth 22.
- FIGS. 9 and 10 show an optional release liner 27.
- Release liner 27 is attached to the backing 12 by oral care composition 14.
- Oral care composition 14 is on the side of the backing strip 12 that is facing the release liner 27. This side is applied to the tooth and gum surfaces once the release liner 27 is removed.
- FIG. 11 shows an example of applying the delivery system of the present invention onto teeth.
- the oral care substances will be left on teeth surface after the backing strip is peeled off.
- Another example of applying the delivery system is to allow the backing strip to dissolve in-situ. In such an embodiment, there is no need to peel the backing strip away from the oral surfaces.
- the backing strip of material serves to carry the oral care compositions herein, and facilitates the application of the oral compositions to the oral surfaces.
- the backing strip is removable, i.e., it need not be worn in the oral cavity for the duration of the time that the oral care composition is present in the oral cavity.
- the term "removable" is intended to include manual removal of the backing strip, e.g., by peeling, as well as removal of the backing strip as a result of in-situ dissolution in the oral cavity, i.e., that occurs without the need for manual peeling.
- the backing strip of material may comprise polymers, natural and synthetic woven materials, non-woven material, foil, paper, rubber, and combinations thereof.
- the backing strip may be a single layer of material or a laminate comprised of more than one layer. Regardless of the number of layers, the backing strip is either substantially water soluble (dissolves in-situ) or substantially water insoluble.
- the strip may be removed by peeling immediately after application, see Fig. 11 , leaving the active materials adhering to the teeth and/or other oral surfaces, or removed after some time interval.
- the material is any type of polymer or combination of polymers that meet the required flexural rigidity and is compatible with oral care substances. Suitable polymers include, but are not limited to, polyethylene, ethylvinylacetate, polyesters, ethylvinyl alcohol, pullulan film, combinations thereof. Examples of polyesters include Mylar® and fluoroplastics such as Teflon®, both manufactured by DuPont. The preferable material is polyethylene.
- the backing strip is generally less than about 1 mm thick, preferably less than about 0.05 mm thick, and more preferably from about 0.001 to about 0.03 mm thick.
- a polyethylene backing strip is preferably less than about 0.1 mm thick and more preferably from about 0.005 to about 0.02 mm thick.
- the backing strip may also be comprised of a substantially water and/or saliva soluble material such as agar film, starch paper, rice paper, natural gum, pullulan paper, or mixtures thereof.
- a substantially water and/or saliva soluble material such as agar film, starch paper, rice paper, natural gum, pullulan paper, or mixtures thereof.
- the shape of the backing strip is any shape and size that covers the desired oral surface.
- the width of the backing strip will also depend upon the oral surface area to be covered. In one example, the width of the strip is from about 0.5 cm to about 4 cm and preferably from about 1 cm to about 2 cm.
- the backing strip may contain shallow pockets.
- additional oral care substance fills shallow pockets to provide reservoirs of additional oral care substance.
- the shallow pockets help to provide texture to the delivery system.
- the film will preferably have an array of shallow pockets. Generally, the shallow pockets are approximately 0.4 mm across and 0.1 mm deep.
- the overall thickness of the delivery system is generally less than about 1 mm. Preferably, the overall thickness is less than about 0.5 mm.
- the amount of oral care composition applied to the strip of material or oral surface depends upon the size and capacity of the piece of material, concentration of the active, and the desired benefit sought. Generally, less than about 1 gram of oral care substance is required. Preferably, from about 0.05 grams to about 0. 5 grams and more preferably from about 0.1 gram to about 0.4 grams of the oral care substance is used.
- the amount of oral care substance per square cm of material is less than about 0.2 grams/cm 2 , preferably from about 0.005 to about 0.1 grams/cm 2 , and more preferably from about 0.01 grams/cm 2 to about 0.04 grams/cm 2 .
- the oral care composition of the present invention can be in the form of a viscous liquid, paste, gel, solution, or other suitable form that can provide sufficient adhesion.
- the oral care composition is in the form of an adhesive film.
- the oral care substance will have a viscosity of from about 200 to about 1 ,000,000 cps at low shear rates (less than one 1/seconds).
- the viscosity is from about 100,000 to about 800,000 cps and more preferably from about 400,000 to about 600,000 cps.
- One preferred embodiment of the oral composition herein is comprised of an organosiloxane resin; a rheology modifier; and at least one oral care substance.
- compositions are comprised of an organosiloxane resin; a fluid diorganopolysiloxane-based polymer; a rheology modifier; and at least one oral care substance.
- an oral care composition further comprises a carrier capable of solubilizing the organosiloxane resin and the fluid diorganopolysiloxane-based polymer.
- Silicone resins are highly crosslinked polymeric siloxane systems.
- the crosslinking is introduced through the incorporation of tri-fu notional and tetra- functional silanes with mono-functional or di-functional, or both, silanes during manufacture of the silicone resin.
- the degree of crosslinking that is required in order to result in a silicone resin will vary according to the specific silane units incorporated into the silicone resin.
- silicone materials which have a sufficient level of trifunctional and tetrafunctional siloxane monomer units, and hence, a sufficient level of crosslinking, such that they dry down to a rigid, or hard, film are considered to be silicone resins.
- the ratio of oxygen atoms to silicon atoms is indicative of the level of crosslinking in a particular silicone material.
- Silicone materials which have at least about 1.1 oxygen atoms per silicon atom will generally be silicone resins herein.
- the ratio of oxygen:silicon atoms is at least about 1.2:1.0.
- Silicone materials and silicone resins in particular can conveniently be identified according to a shorthand nomenclature system well known to those skilled in the art as the "MDTQ" nomenclature. Under this system, the silicone is described according to the presence of various siloxane monomer units which make up the silicone. Briefly, the symbol M denotes the mono-functional unit (CH3)3SiO) 5; D denotes the difunctional unit (CH3)2SiO; T denotes the trifunctional unit (CH3)SiO- ⁇ .5; and Q denotes the quadra- or tetra-functional unit
- Si ⁇ 2- Note that a small amount, up to about 5% of silanol or alkoxy functionality may also be present in the resin structure as a result of processing.
- Primes of the unit symbols e.g., M', D', V, and Q', denote substituents other than methyl, and must be specifically defined for each occurrence. Typical alternate substituents include groups such as vinyl, phenyl, amino, hydroxyl, etc.
- the molar ratios of the various units either in terms of subscripts to the symbols indicating the total number of each type of unit in the silicone, or an average thereof, or as specifically indicated ratios in combination with molecular weight, complete the description of the silicone material under the MDTQ system.
- T, Q, T' and/or Q' to D, D', M and/or M' in a silicone resin is indicative of higher levels of crosslinking.
- the overall level of crosslinking can also be indicated by the oxygen to silicon ratio.
- the organosiloxane resins are solid at about 25°C and the average molecular weight of the resins is from about 1 ,000 to about 10,000.
- the resins are soluble in organic solvents such as toluene, xylene, isoparaffins, and cyclosiloxanes or the volatile carrier described below, indicating that the resin is not sufficiently crosslinked such that the resin is insoluble in the volatile carrier.
- the silicone resins preferred for use herein are MQ, MT, MTQ, and MDTQ resins; such MQ resins are disclosed in U.S. Patent 5,330,747, Krzysik, issued July 19, 1994.
- the preferred silicone substituent is methyl.
- MQ resins wherein the M:Q ratio is from about 0.5:1.0 to about 1.5:1.0.
- Organosiloxane resins such as these are commercially available, for example, Wacker 803 and 804 available from Wacker Silicones Corporation of Adrian, Michigan, US, and G.E. 1170-002 from the General Electric Company.
- the level of the resin that is used in the compositions is dependent on its degree of solubility in the formulation, particularly in the solvents used. Generally, the range of resin used in the present invention is from about 5% to about 70%, preferably from about 15% to about 45%, and even more preferably from about 20% to about 40%.

- compositions may also be applied to other surfaces of the oral cavity, such as the gingival or mucosal tissues, or to any other oral cavity surface.
- Prolonged delivery of the oral care substance is made possible as the oral care substance is released from the film over time. Then, any residual oral care substance may be easily removed by wiping, brushing or rinsing the oral surface after a desired period of time has elapsed, or in the normal course of tooth brushing or other oral care activities.
- the film will last from about 2 hours to 8 hours regardless of the reactivity of the oral care substance.
- the compositions are almost unnoticeable when applied to the oral cavity. It is not necessary to prepare the oral cavity before using the system of the present invention. For example, the user may or may not choose to brush the teeth or rinse the mouth before using the system.
- the surfaces of the oral cavity are neither required to be rigorously dried nor to be excessively wet with saliva or water before the system is used. However, it is believed that adhesion to the tooth enamel surfaces will be improved if the teeth are dry when the system is applied.
- the present invention relates not only to methods for delivering an oral care substance to the oral cavity of a human, but also to methods of delivering an oral care substance to the oral cavity of an animal, e.g., household pets or other domestic animals, or animals kept in captivity.
