A fast-acting (3-5 min.) denture-cleansing tablet for use in aqueous solutions to automatically clean dentures is comprised of a mixture containing gas-forming materials, organic and inorganic calcium bonding materials, oxidizing materials, surfactant materials, carriers, lubricants and flavoring materials. Fast cleansing action and short decomposition times are obtained by including amidosulfonic acid, ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid, dialkyl thiourea, and a non-ionogenic fluorochemical material in an amount sufficient to achieve a pH in a 1% solution of such formulation in water of 6.3 to 6.5. |
