Abstract
Novel precipitated silicon dioxide abrasive compositions which can be incorporated into therapeutic toothpaste compositions containing soluble fluoride salts are disclosed. The abrasives comprise low structure, high fluoride compatible amorphous precipitated silicon dioxides (silicas) having a controlled refractive index for use in low water clear gel dentifrice applications. Also provided are methods for preparation of the novel silicon dioxide abrasives and resulting toothpaste formulations containing such abrasives.
