The human oral care composition comprises a safe and effective amount of fluoride ions and stabilized chlorine dioxide, which composition may take the form of a paste, gel, rinse, spray, powder, varnish or similar form. Reduces tooth demineralization and promotes remineralization. This method involves topically applying the composition to a person's mouth (including but not limited to teeth, gums and tongue), preferably at least once daily, thereby damaging any biofilm in which released chlorine dioxide is present. It includes enhancing the anti-caries of fluoride. |
