A multicomponent oral health care composition is described, comprising a source of a fluoride ion, a source of a calcium ion, a source of a phosphate ion, and stabilised chlorine dioxide, that can be used as a toothpaste, oral spray or a mouth wash/oral rinse formulation. The different components in the composition act synergistically together to clean the teeth and mucous membranes of an oral cavity of a subject, perfuming them or protecting them in order to keep them in good condition, change their appearance or correct unpleasant odours. They achieve this by inhibiting caries, promoting teeth remineralisation, and helping to alleviate dentine hypersensitivity, gingivitis and periodontal disease. |
