The present invention generally relates to liquid compositions and methods for treating oral inflammation by administering a liquid composition to the oral cavity. The liquid composition is prepared from a powder containing calcium glycerophosphate, one or more sodium phosphate salts, sodium chloride, and optionally sodium bicarbonate and silica. The powder is mixed with a quality of water to form a liquid that is supersaturated with calcium ions and phosphate ions and is essentially free of visible particles and precipitate.

The invention is concerned with use of oral inorganic pyrophosphate for preventing and/or reducing tissue calcification, particularly soft tissue calcification, and/or diseases or disorders characterized by low plasma PPi levels, as, e.g., occurs in chronic kidney disease (CKD), end-stage renal disease (ESRD), generalized arterial calcification of infancy (GACI), Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE), Arterial Calcification Due to Deficiency of CD73 (ACDC), Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, arteriosclerosis obliterans, venous calcifications, crystal deposition disorders, calcification resulting from neurological disorders, calcinosis universalis, calcinosis circumscripta, scleroderma, dermatomyositis, systemic lupus erythematosus, hyperparathyroidism, neoplasms, milk-alkali syndrome, hypervitaminosis D, tumoral calcinosis, hypophosphatemic rickets, ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament of the spine, myocardial ischemia, joint calcification, heterotropic ossification of traumatized muscle, angioid streaks, diabetes mellitus type II, cardiovascular disorder, or atherosclerosis.

This invention relates to oral care compositions comprising herbal extracts including, e.g., Gymnema sylvestre, Emblica officinalis, Eugenia jambolana, Azadirachta indica, and combinations thereof and zinc salts, e.g., zinc citrate and zinc oxide. Additionally, the invention relates to methods of using and of making these compositions, e.g., method of using the oral care compositions to treat gingivitis in diabetic consumers.
