Abstract
A non-alcohol mouthwash composition includes a sweetener, a dispersing agent, a surfactant, an antimicrobial agent, a calcium ion source including calcium lactate, a phosphate ion source including monobasic sodium phosphate, a flavoring agent, a fluoride source, and water. The non-alcohol mouthwash composition includes about 0.001 weight percent of the calcium lactate and about 0.10 weight percent of the monobasic sodium phosphate, based on total weight percent of the non-alcohol mouthwash composition, and the composition has a pH greater than about 5.5. According to embodiments, the non-alcohol mouthwash composition exhibits desirable advantages of being alcohol free, being sodium laural sulfate free, being gluten free, and being substantially 100% natural, as well as alleviating Xerostomia (dry mouth) by stimulating salivary flow, combatting enamel erosion by providing a means of remineralization, providing anticariogenic activity by acting as an antimicrobial agent, and/or providing anti-inflammatory activity, among other benefits.
