Abstract: The present invention is directed to oral care ULTRAMULSION<TM> based oral care products, including, toothpastes, treated flosses and dental stimulators, interdental coating substances, oral rinses, mouth/throat conditioning internal treatment products, and anti-gingivitis products. All of these products are improved when an ULTRAMULSION<TM> dispersion containing silicone and a surfactant is used as taught herein. The ULTRAMULSION<TM> dispersions of the present invention combine certain characteristics of emulsions with certain features of microemulsions. Like conventional emulsions, they are two phase systems comprising a silicone dispersed in a continuous, surfactant phase, wherein the silicone is insoluble in the surfactant. Unlike conventional emulsions, but like microemulsions, these dispersions are stable. Unlike microemulsions, but like conventional emulsions, mechanical work is required to form ULTRAMULSION<TM> dispersions. Unlike microemulsions, but like conventional emulsions, these ULTRAMULSION<TM> dispersions are not formed spontaneously. Like conventional emulsions, the ULTRAMULSION<TM> dispersions do not contain a cosolvent commonly found in microemulsions.

Description: ORAL CARE ULTRAMULSION BASED PRODUCTS SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention is directed to oral care ULTRAMULSION 1 * 1 based oral care products, including, toothpastes, treated flosses and dental stimulators, interdental coating substances, oral rinses, mouth/throat conditioning internal treatment products, and anti-gingivitis products. All of these products are improved when an ULTRAMULSION™ dispersion containing silicone and a surfactant is used as taught herein. ULTRAMULSION™ is a trademark of WhiteHill Oral Technologies. The ULTRAMULSION™ dispersions of the present invention combine certain characteristics of emulsions with certain features of microemulsions. Like conventional emulsions, they are two- phase systems comprising a silicone dispersed in a continuous, surfactant phase, wherein the silicone is insoluble in the surfactant. Unlike conventional emulsions, but like microemulsions, these dispersions are stable. Unlike microemulsions, but like conventional emulsions, mechanical work is required to form ULTRAMULSION™ dispersions. Unlike microemulsions, but like conventional emulsions, these ULTRAMULSION™ dispersions are not formed spontaneously. Like conventional emulsions, the ULTRAMULSION™ dispersions do not contain a cosolvent commonly found in microemulsions. Of course, the ULTRAMULSION™ dispersions of the present invention can be easily dispersed in various liquids such as water to obtain stable dispersions. These dispersions of ULTRAMULSION™ dispersions in water have excellent utility in various non-oral care products. For the purposes of the present invention: a. "stable" is defined as follows; a dispersion of the ULTRAMULSION™ dispersion in water when subjected to centrifuging in a 100 G environment for 5 minutes, less than about 10% by weight of the ULTRAMULSION™ dispersion separates from the continuous water phase and/or a substantial portion (i.e., >50%) of the dispersed phase resists separation. This latter definition is particularly applicable to higher viscosity silicones. b. "water-free" means that the ULTRAMULSION™ dispersion of silicone and surfactant is substantially free from water. c. "solvent free" means that the ULTRAMULSION™ dispersion of silicone and surfactant is substantially free from co-solvents such as ethanol, isopropanol, and the like. d. "oriented" means that the polar moieties of the "uncoiled" polydimethylsiloxane in the ULTRAMULSION™ dispersion are generally aligned in one plane with the hydrophilic oil seeking moieties aligned in a second plane such as illustrated in Fig. 2. e. "monolayer" means that the monomolecular film of the ULTRAMULSION™ dispersion of the present invention when dispersed in water is attracted to teeth and mouth surfaces by secondary bonding force to form a substantive coating thereon. As described above, one preferred embodiment of the present invention relates to various oral care products containing stable dispersions of certain high viscosity silicones in certain surfactants; wherein: a. the dispersed silicones, which are insoluble in said surfactant, arc oriented by the surfactant such that when dispersed in water they are particularly adept at forming oriented coatings on teeth and mouth surfaces with enhanced substantivity, and b. the particle size of the dispersed silicone is from between about 0.1 and about 10 microns, with a particle size distribution such that from between about 80 and 95% of the dispersed silicone is within this particle size range. In certain embodiments, between 80-95% of two dispersed silicones is less than 1 - 2 microns in particle size.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS Fig. 1 illustrates the "coiled" molecular configuration proposed for polydimethylsiloxanes. Fig. 2 illustrates the proposed molecular configuration of oriented polydimethylsiloxanes after ULTRAMULSION 1 * 1 dispersion processing; Fig. 3 illustrates schematically an ULTRAMULSION™ dispersion process of the present invention; and Figs. 4 and 5 illustrate that the ULTRAMULSION™ dispersions of the present invention produced via various high shear dispersing means having particle size distribution of 80+ % under 10 microns. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Referring to the drawings, Fig. 1 illustrates the accepted "coiled" configuration advanced for polydimethylsiloxanes, wherein the methyl moieties are oriented outwardly while the oxygen moieties are oriented inwardly toward the axis of the coil or helix. This configuration does not readily promote, bonding between the oxygen moieties and compatible surfaces such as tooth enamel. Fig. 2 illustrates the "uncoiled oriented" configuration proposed for polydimethylsiloxanes that have been dispersed in the stable, ULTRAMULSION™ dispersions of the present invention, wherein the oxygen moieties are generally oriented in one plane distinct from that of the methyl moieties. This proposed uncoiled oriented configuration appears to support the unique and unexpected stability, bonding and enhanced substantivity properties of the ULTRAMULSION™ dispersions of the present invention, as evidenced by the various coating applications of these ULTRAMULSION™ dispersions to teeth. See the Examples provided below. Fig. 3 illustrates the ULTRAMULSION™ dispersion process of the present invention wherein a nonionic surfactant and a polydimethyl-siloxane 1 , substantially free from water and co-solvent, are mixed in vessel 2, provided with mixing means 3, heat source 4, and inert head space 5. The heated and mixed surfactant-poly- dimethylsiloxane 6, is then subjected to high shear dispersion at an elevated temperature in dispersing means 7, to produce the ULTRAMULSION™ dispersion 8, of the present invention. The high shear dispersion device (7) is typically selected from among devices manufactured by Ross, H A Works, etc. Other energy sources such as flow-through ultrasonic cells may be used as well. Fig. 4 is a chart describing the particle size distribution of an ULTRAMULSION™ dispersion of the present invention containing from about 50 to 95% by weight nonionic surfactant and from about 5 to 50% by weight polydimethylsiloxane (2.5 million cs) produced in a continuous process with an DCA Works dispersing means, (high shear dispersing) with an inlet temperature of 140° C and an outlet temperature of 210° C. Fig. 5 is a chart describing the particle size distribution of an ULTRAMULSION™ dispersion of the present invention containing from about 50 to 95% by weight nonionic surfactant and from about 5 to 50% by weight polydimethylsiloxane (2.5 million cs) produced in a batch process with a Ross M/E 100 LC dispersing means fitted with a 20 mesh screen, operated at a temperature from about 120° to 160°C. For purposes of the present invention, the term silicone means a clear, colorless substance containing polydialkylsiloxane polymers with average kinematic viscosities ranging from about 100,000 centistokes (cs) to about 50 million cs, preferably from about 1 million .cs to about 25 million cs, more preferably from about 1.5 million cs to about 10 million cs, and most preferably from about 2 million to about 5 million cs. This definition intentionally includes the so-called "gum" silicones having viscosities of 30 to 50 million cs. Certain high viscosity polydimethylsiloxanes having viscosities from about 2.5 million cs to about 4 million cs are particularly preferred for the oral care products of the present invention. Other polydimethylsiloxanes suitable for the present invention include "substituted" water insoluble silicones and mixtures of polydiorganosiloxanes and substituted water insoluble silicones. Specifically, water soluble silicones are excluded from the ULTOAMULSION™ dispersions of the present invention. See also Tables 1 and 2 below. The viscosity of some silicones can be measured by means of a glass capillary viscometer as set forth in Dow Corning Corporate Test Method CTM0004, July 20, 1970. The silicone may be either a high viscosity polyalkyl siloxane as described in detail below, a polyaryl siloxane, a polyalkylaryl siloxane or a polyether siloxane copolymer. Mixtures of these silicones may also be used and are preferred in certain embodiments of the present invention. The polyalkylaryl siloxanes that may be used include, for example, polymethylphenylsiloxanes having viscosities above 1 million centistokes at 20°C. Some of these siloxanes are available, for example, from the General Electric Company, from Dow Corning, and/or from Rhone-Poulenc. The polyether siloxane copolymer that may be used is, for example, a polypropylene oxide modified dimethylpolysiloxane although ethylene oxide or mixtures of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide may also be used.

The amido betaines are preferred for use in some of the compositions of this invention. A particularly preferred composition utilizes an amido betaine, a quaternary compound, a silicone, a suspending agent and has a pH of from about 2 to about 4. Examples of amphoteric surfactants which can be used in the ULTRAMULSION™ dispersions of the present invention are those which can be broadly described as derivatives of aliphatic secondary and tertiary amine in which the aliphatic radical can be straight chain or branched and wherein one of the aliphatic substituents contains from about 8 to about 18 carbon atoms and one contains an anionic water solubilizing group, e.g., carboxy, sulfonate, sulfate, phosphate, or phosphonate. Examples of compounds falling within this definition are sodium 3- dodecylamino-propionate, sodium 3-dodecylamino-propane sulfonate, N-alkyltaurines such as the one prepared by reacting dodecylamine with sodium isethionate according to the teachings of U.S. Patent No. 2,658,072, N-higher alkyl aspartic acids such as those produced according to the teachings of U.S. Patent No. 2,438,091, and the products sold under the trade name "Miranol" and described in U.S. Patent No. 2,528,378. Nonionic surfactants, which are preferably used in combination with an anionic, amphoteric or zwitterionic surfactant, can be broadly defined as compounds produced by the condensation of alkylene oxide groups (hydrophilic in nature) with an organic hydrophobic compound, which may be aliphatic or alkyl aromatic in nature. Examples of preferred classes of nonionic surfactants are: 1.

Those derived from the condensation of ethylene oxide with the product resulting from the reaction of propylene oxide and ethylenediamine products which may be varied in composition depending upon the balance between the hydrophobic and hydrophilic elements which is desired. For example, compounds containing from about 40% to about 80% polyoxyethylene by weight and having a molecular weight of from about 5,000 to about 15,000 resulting from the reaction of ethylene oxide groups with a hydrophobic base constituted of the reaction product of ethylene diamine and excess propylene oxide, said base having a molecular weight of the order of 2,500 to 3,000 are satisfactory. 3. The condensation product of aliphatic alcohols having from 8 to 18 carbon atoms, in either straight chain or branched chain configuration, with ethylene oxide, e.g., a coconut alcohol ethylene oxide condensate having from 10 to 30 moles of ethylene oxide per mole of coconut alcohol, the coconut alcohol fraction having from 10 to 14 carbon atoms. 4. Long chain tertiary amine oxides corresponding to the following general formula: wherein R, contains an alkyl, alkenyl or monohydroxy alkyl radical of from about 8 to about 18 carbon atoms from 0 to about 10 ethylene oxide moieties, and from 0 to 1 glyceryl moiety, and R 2 and R 3 contains from 1 to about 3 carbon atoms and from 0 to about 1 hydroxy group, e.g., methyl, ethyl, propyl, hydroxy ethyl, or hydroxypropyl radicals.

Many additional nonsoap surfactants are described in McCUTCHEON'S, DETERGEN AND EMULSIFIERS, 1979 ANNUAL, published by Allured Publishing Corporation. Particularly preferred nonionic surfactants are nonionic poloxamer surfactants of block copolymers of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide ranging from flowable liquids of varying viscosities, to paste, prills and cast solids with molecular weights from 1,100 to 150,000. Suitable nonionic surfactants are manufactured and marketed by BASF Corporation under the trademarks Pluronic. Particularly preferred nonionic surfactants are Pluronic F-68, F-88, F-108 and Pluronic F-127. These are described in a BASF brochure entitled "Pluronic and Tetronic Block Copolymer Surfactant." These nonionic surfactants suitable for the present invention can be described by the following structure: CH 3 I OH-(CH 2 CH 2 )) x - (CH 2 CHO) y - (CH 2 CH 2 O) x . - H where x, y and x' are whole numbers. Surprisingly, the nonionic surfactants of choice for the ULTRAMULSION™ dispersions of the present invention are reported in the referenced brochure to have marginal detergency, emulsification and wetting properties. As noted above, the preferred nonionic poloxamer surfactants useful in the coating compositions of the present invention are described as polyoxyethylene- polyoxypropylene block copolymers such as Pluronic F-68, F-88, F-108 and F-127 (BASF) which have molecular weights of at least about 1000 such as those described in U.S. Patent Nos. 4,343,785, 4,465,663, 4,511,563 and 4,476,107. Emulsions of various coating substances including polydimethylsiloxanes in various surfactants including nonionic surfactants are disclosed and claimed in U.S. Patents 4,911,927, 4,942,034; 4,950,479; 5,009,881; 5,032,387; 5,057,306; 5,057,307; 5,057,308, 5,057,309; 5,057,310, 5,098,711, 5,165,913 and 5,284,648. There is however, no teaching or suggestion in these references that these high viscosity silicone emulsions are stable nor that the "coating" substances are oriented as they are in the ULTRAMULSION™ dispersions of the present invention. The ratio of surfactant to silicone in the ULTRAMULSION™ dispersion coating compositions of the present invention can range from between about 400:1 and about 1:2. In a preferred embodiment of the invention the ratio of surfactant to silicone is from between about 25:1 and 1:2. The ULTRAMULSION™ dispersions of the present invention may be prepared as follows; generally, if not a liquid, the surfactant is first heated to a temperature at which it becomes a liquid. The silicone is then dispersed in the heated surfactant with various high shear dispersing means. In one preferred method, the heated surfactant is mechanically stirred along with the silicone, to form a pre-emulsion mixture in which the silicone is uniformly dispersed in the surfactant in droplets of a larger size than desired for the ULTRAMULSION™ dispersions but small enough to optimize the subsequent high shear dispersions. This mixture is subjected to high-shear dispersions with a means such as the IKA- WORKS DISPAX-Reactor with at least one superfine generator, alternatively, a Ross Model M.E., 100 LC fitted with a 20 mesh screen or a ultrasonicator such as MEDSONIC XL2010 fitted with 800-C Flow Cell & 800-2 ICT 3/4 inch flanged horn can be used. The discontinuous silicone phase of the ULTRAMULSION 1 * 1 dispersion can also contain a wide range of lipid soluble and/or lipid dispersible oral care active ingredients ranging from antimicrobials to desensitizing/substances, to healants such as aloe to vitamins such as vitamin E, to flavorants, etc. These various ingredients in the silicone phase of the ULTRAMULSION 1 * 1 dispersion perform in various oral care products as though they are contained in a "reservoir" as they continue to be available at the ULTRAMULSION™ dispersion oral surface interface, as long as the ULTRAMULSION™ dispersion coating remains substantive to mouth surfaces. The various toothpastes of the present invention can be made by mixing the materials together and heating if necessary and following accepted manufacturing practices for these various products as described in detail below. In addition, other toothpastes are included in the present invention including whitening toothpastes, toothpastes for treating hyposensitivity, toothpastes for dry mouth sufferer, toothpastes for patients undergoing radiation therapy, etc. The oral care products containing the ULTRAMULSION™ dispersions of the present invention will contain a variety of essential components ranging from surfactants and abrasives for cleaning, to whiteners, to gelling aids to flavorants etc. These are detailed in various Examples described below. In addition to the foregoing, other oral care products are included in the present invention, such as chewing gums, prophylactic pastes and denture wearer products to treat stomatitis. While also in the latter the ULTRAMULSION™ dispersion provides the base functioning as a carrier for specific active ingredients such as Candida yeast sp. antifungal agents such as stannous fluoride. In addition the oral care products of this invention can contain a variety of nonessential optional components suitable for rendering such compositions more acceptable.

Material to be impregnated (e.g., wooden sticks) with the ULTRAMULSION™ dispersion (or formulation) is placed in suitable container capable of holding a vacuum, such as a desiccator, stainless steel covered reactor or similar device. 2. The liquid formulation is poured on top of the material and covered completely by the liquid. A perforated disk with ballast is placed on the material to keep from floating. 3. The container is then sealed, and vacuum applied for varying periods of time ranging from 1 min. to several hours with the preferred time being between 5-10 min. 4. Vacuum is maintained such that the liquid does not boil, but enough vacuum to remove entrapped air from the device. TABLE 19 CONTINUED Example of laboratory preparation using wooden Interdental Stimulators (IDS) Collectively, 87.0 grams of wooden interdental stimulators (IDS) equals about 260 individual stimulators. This IDS batch was impregnated with the ULTRAMULSION™ dispersion formulation from Example 22 under vacuum, at 30 mm of mercury for a period of 10 minutes. The resulting impregnated IDS batch was removed from the remaining solution and dried at 40°C in convection oven for 1.5 hour. The IDS were dry and the final batch weight was 152.7 grams. This is a 56.9% increase in weight indicating the amount of dry formulation impregnated into the IDS. The present invention has been described in detail, including the preferred embodiments thereof.
