Abstract

A method of forming a solution of oxalic acid potassium salt dihydrate, useful for desensitizing dentin, comprising the steps of admixing an effective amount of oxalic acid potassium salt dihydrate in water having a pH of 2.0-4.0, heating the solution at a temperature range from 85° F. to 100° F. until a suspension is formed, ultrasonically vibrating this suspension for an effective amount of time and frequency to reduce the oxalic acid potassium salt dihydrate to a particle size of 1 to 10 microns.
