Abstract

Method for providing all individuals with a means of controlling the time of brushing their teeth, which consists in combining the use of the standard dentifrice composition lacking a marked taste of its own with at least one hard gelatin capsule having a water-soluble wall and containing a product with a very pronounced taste, the release of this product after dissolution or disintegration of the aforementioned wall in the saliva indicating to the individual in question that the minimum brushing time has been observed.

Description

La présente invention concerne un perfectionnement apporté à l'utilisation des compositions dentifrices, en vue de procurer à l'utilisateur un moyen commode et efficace pour apprécier la durée effective de l'opération de brossage. The present invention relates to an improvement made to the use of toothpaste compositions, with a view to providing the user with a convenient and effective means for assessing the effective duration of the brushing operation.

II est bien connu que, bien souvent, par hâte ou négligence, le temps consacré au brossage des dents est insuffisant. C'est en particulier le cas pour les enfants qui considèrent trop souvent cette opération importante comme une corvée' qu'ils écourtent au maximum. It is well known that, very often, out of haste or negligence, the time devoted to brushing the teeth is insufficient. This is particularly the case for children who too often consider this important operation as a chore 'which they shorten as much as possible.

C'est aussi souvent le cas des adultes qui, au réveil, apprécient mal la durée de leurs diverses opérations de toilette; ainsi, en particulier, au cours de voyages la fatigue ou le décalage horaire provoquent cette difficulté. C'est la raison pour laquelle l'invention s'applique en particulier, mais non exclusivement au cas des nécessaires de brossage offerts aux clients des hôtels ou sur les avions longscourriers à titre publicitaire. This is also often the case for adults who, upon waking, do not appreciate the duration of their various toilet operations; thus, in particular, during trips fatigue or jet lag cause this difficulty. This is the reason why the invention applies in particular, but not exclusively, to the brushing kits offered to hotel customers or on long-haul aircraft for advertising purposes.

Selon l'invention, en vue de résoudre ce problème, on associe à la composition dentifrice, dépourvue de goût propre, un produit dégageant dans la bouche un goût prononcé, tel qu'une huile essentielle, ce produit étant occulté par, ou dans, un matériau ne le libérant que progressivement et au bout d'un certain temps; correspondant à la durée à apprécier. According to the invention, with a view to solving this problem, a product releasing a pronounced taste in the mouth, such as an essential oil, is associated with the toothpaste composition, devoid of its own taste, this product being obscured by, or in, a material releasing it only gradually and after a certain time; corresponding to the duration to be assessed.

Le terme "matériau" utilisé ici désigne par exemple un composé gélifié, analogue à la gélatine, présenté sous forme de petits volumes contenant le produit 'indicateur. The term “material” used here designates for example a gelled compound, analogous to gelatin, presented in the form of small volumes containing the indicator product.

Selon un premier mode de réalisation, ledit volume est une gélule unique associée, soit à la brosse à dents, soit à une recharge de composition dentifrice mise en place dans ladite brosse à chaque usage, la paroi de cette gélule se délittant ou se dissolvant au moment de l'usage, en un temps correspondant à la durée optimale de brossage, pour que le goût du produit "indicateur" parvienne à l'utilisateur au moment voulu. According to a first embodiment, said volume is a single capsule associated either with the toothbrush or with a refill of toothpaste composition placed in said brush at each use, the wall of this capsule disintegrating or dissolving on moment of use, in a time corresponding to the optimal duration of brushing, so that the taste of the "indicator" product reaches the user at the desired time.

Selon un second mode de réalisation, ledit volume est du type microcapsule, souvent désigné par le terme chronuleg dans l'industrie pharmaceutique, dans le cas où il est utilisé pour déterminer sur des médicaments un effet dit retardé ou prolongé et dont les dimensions sont suffisamment faibles pour que l'on puisse noyer, dans une composition dentifrice pâteuse ou pulvérulente, une proportion de ces microcapsules telle que leur présence ne gêne pas l'utilisateur, mais détermine au moment de leur délittement l'apparition, dans la bouche de l'utilisateur, d'un goût suffisamment fort pour l'avertir que la durée nécessaire de brossage est écoulée. According to a second embodiment, said volume is of the microcapsule type, often designated by the term chronuleg in the pharmaceutical industry, in the case where it is used to determine on drugs a so-called delayed or prolonged effect and the dimensions of which are sufficiently large low so that one can drown, in a pasty or powdery toothpaste composition, a proportion of these microcapsules such that their presence does not disturb the user, but determines at the time of their disintegration the appearance in the mouth of the user, of a sufficiently strong taste to warn him that the necessary duration of brushing has expired.

Comme "indicateur', tout produit ayant un goût suffisamment marqué peut être utilisé ; par exemple, on peut utiliser une huile essentielle, facile à micro-encapsuler par des techniques classiques, et possédant généralement un goût très fort même à très faible dose, par exemple les essences de citrus (bergamote, citron, orange), de menthe ou analogues, ou un extrait de fruits tels que la cannelle, -la framboise ou analogue, ou tout autre produit de qualité "alimentaire' et possédant de telles propriétés gustatives, aux doses employées. As an "indicator", any product having a sufficiently marked taste can be used; for example, an essential oil can be used, easy to micro-encapsulate by conventional techniques, and generally having a very strong taste even at very low doses, for example essences of citrus (bergamot, lemon, orange), mint or the like, or a fruit extract such as cinnamon, raspberry or the like, or any other product of "food" quality and having such taste properties, at the doses used.

L'enveloppe de telles gélules, qu'il s'agisse d'une gélule unique de dimensions macroscopiques placée dans la brosse, ou de micro-gélules de dimensions sul > microscopiques noyées dans la composition dentifrice pâteuse ou solide pulvérulente, doit répondre à la condition épaisseur/vitesse de délittement, t, t étant la durée minimale de brossage efficace. The envelope of such capsules, whether it is a single capsule of macroscopic dimensions placed in the brush, or micro-capsules of sul> microscopic dimensions embedded in the pasty or powdery solid toothpaste composition, must meet the condition / delamination speed condition, t, t being the minimum effective brushing time.

Bien entendu la composition dentifrice est quelconque, et doit seulement être suffisamment neutre pour que le goût de l'indicateur se développe utilement. Of course the toothpaste composition is arbitrary, and must only be neutral enough for the taste of the indicator to develop usefully.

Dans le cas de l'utilisation d'une gélule macroscopique unique placée à l'avance dans la brosse, cette dernière sera par exemple avantageusement du type jetable, offerte à titre publicitaire comme rappelé ci-dessus.  In the case of the use of a single macroscopic capsule placed in advance in the brush, the latter will for example advantageously be of the disposable type, offered for advertising purposes as mentioned above.
