NM-Carbomer as excipients for oral care products
toothpastes,denture care products, mouth rinses, and whitening
applications
NM-Carbomer
products have been used extensively in oral care applications for more than 10
years.
Initially
used in aqueous toothpaste formulations as a thickener and co-binder,
NM-Carbomer products are now preferred thickeners for anhydrous toothpaste
formulations. They are also used in a variety of other toothpastes, mouth
rinses, and denture adhesive products, including those with natural
ingredients, whitening capabilities, and long-acting or retention properties.
Oral Care Applications-All polymers listed in table below are
pharmaceutical-grade and suitable for use in oral care applications and are present in
commercialized oral hygiene products

Enabling innovation through NM-Carbomer as excipients, which are:
Highly efficientthickeners, co-bindersin combination with cellulosic polymers,
and/or binders, enabling excellent formulation characteristics at low usage levels.
The preferred thickener for anhydrous compositions
Excellent MucoadhesivePolymers, which protect and lubricate the mucosa as well as allow for prolonged active and flavor retention.
Ideal for enabling formulations that exhibitreducedstringiness, a
significant advantage when using high-speed tube-filling machines.
Optimal for providingenhancedaesthetics, such as toothpaste ribbon
stand- up and high clarity gels
Compliant
with global pharmacopeia and regulatory requirements and possess a long
history of product quality, safety, reproducibility, and supply chain security
