PREPARATION OF SOLID DENTIFRICE

PURPOSE:To prepare a solid dentifrice by solidifying a tooth paste with a coagu lating agent, molding the product in an arbitrary shape and subsequently wholly coating the molded product with a protecting film. CONSTITUTION:The preparation of the solid dentifrice comprises the following processes: mixing an abrasive, a foaming agent, a flavor, a seasoning, a pharma cological ingredient and a preservative in suitable amounts, respectively, kneading the mixture together with water, further kneading the mixture while adding a small amount of a coagulating agent, injecting the kneaded product into a preliminarily prepared mold when the kneaded product reaches a proper hardness, and subsequently coating the molded product with a protecting film after a prescribed time. Since one molded product of the solid dentifrice is an amount required for one time use, the solid dentifrice is easily handled.
