This disclosure relates to translucent oral care compositions comprising one or more source(s) of zinc source and/or a stannous source. The translucent oral care composition can comprise one or more zinc and/or stannous ion source(s) in amounts effective to provide at least 28% soluble zinc and/or stannous as a fraction of the total zinc and/or stannous ion concentration in the composition; an abrasive (e.g., silica), wherein the abrasive has a refractive index of approximately 1.45 as measured in a 4% silica, 90% sorbitol/water solution; and an orally acceptable vehicle. Methods of using and of making these compositions is also disclosed herein.

A skin treatment composition is described comprising a cryopreserved blend of natural materials including at least two components selected from the group consisting of wheat grass juice, wheat grass pulp, shea butter, cocoa powder, rice flour, coffee, jojoba oil, hemp oil, castor oil, and sugarcane juice. The skincare treatment composition is applied with a specialty applicator that is frozen into the compound during processing. Methods of making, packaging and using the compositions also are disclosed.

Oral care compositions that have hops beta acid, such as from an extract from a species in the Humulus family, and a metal ion source, such as a tin ion source and/or a zinc ion source. Oral care compositions that have a tin ion source and/or a zinc ion source and one or more hops beta acids, such as from an extract from Humulus lupulus. Oral care compositions have a tin ion source and/or a zinc ion source and a beta acid derived from an extract of Humulus lupulus.

Described herein are oral care compositions comprising a crosslinked polyvinylpyrrolidone complexed with hydrogen peroxide, together with particular co-polymers as additional excipients; including some embodiments which further comprise a calcium abrasive.

The invention relates to the use of a powder in a powder jet device for cleaning tooth surfaces by powder spraying, wherein the powder comprises rhamnose and/or arabinose. The invention also relates to a process for cleaning tooth surfaces with a powder jet device, wherein a powder comprising rhamnose and/or arabinose is used.

The present disclosure relates to processes for the manufacture of compositions containing amine fluorides and mixtures of these amine fluorides. Related compositions and methods of use are further disclosed.

Disclosed are a scrub sponge and a preparation method therefor. The method for preparing the scrub sponge includes the operations of: obtaining a first mixture by stirring alkalizer, porogen, konjac powder, scrub granule and water, and filling the first mixture into a mold to form a preform, where the preform includes a first sponge layer; forming a parison by sequentially cooking and freezing the preform; and sequentially unfreezing, dehydrating and drying the parison to obtain the scrub sponge.

Disclosed are high-porosity protein particles useful for carrying one or more agents of interest, methods for their manufacture and use, and products comprising them.

Described herein are methods of treating biofilm (e.g. modifying surface topography, reducing thickness or reducing biovolume) and compositions and apparatus for use in carrying out such methods.

Described herein are methods for improving or maintaining the barrier integrity of gingival tissue comprising administering an oral care composition comprising a curcurninoid, to the oral cavity of a subject in need thereof.
