Dental Floss

Kandi26 · 06-27-2008, 01:42 PM

As I sit here reading all the posts, I am flossing my teeth..

Anyways, I suddenly notice how the floss is kinds minty sweet. I gave up aspartame a couple months ago and now I am wondering what is it that makes this floss taste so nice? Anybody know?

I found this in a patent:
(d) A second container is now procured and in it is thoroughly mixed, using conventional methods and until visually homogenous, all other ingredients; These ingredients will include, but are not limited to, one or more polishing agents, preferably sodium bicarbonate; flavouring agents; desensitizing agents, preferably potassium nitrate; and sweetening agents, preferably sodium saccharin; If any fluoride based compounds or there ingredients are also to be used they are added, along with the others, at this time; (e) Once the composition of step (d) has been prepared it is then added to the mixture produced by step (c) and thoroughly mixed, using conventional means, until visually homogenous; (f) The resulting composition produced by step (e) is then uniformly applied to dental floss using conventional techniques.

"preferably saccarin"
