This technical disclosure describes improvements that would be readily apparent to a Person Having Ordinary Skill In The Art (PHOSITA) when considered in combination with the foundational architecture disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 11,857,654.

Summary of the Inventive Concept

This inventive concept adapts the original NHAP containing oral composition for specific, narrow markets or unique operational environments, such as high-security needs, disaster relief, extreme weather conditions, remote areas, and high-altitude environments.

Background and Problem Solved

The original patent disclosed an alkaline dental composition containing nanohydroxyapatite, free of glycerin, fluoride, and a surfactant. However, this composition may not be suitable for specialized environments where unique requirements and constraints exist. The new inventive concept addresses these limitations by adapting the original composition for niche markets and environments.

Detailed Description of the Inventive Concept

The inventive concept comprises a dental product containing a nanohydroxyapatite suspension stock having the nanohydroxyapatite in a range of 16.66% to 33.33% by weight. The composition is adapted for use in high-security facilities, disaster relief situations, extreme weather conditions, remote areas, and high-altitude environments. The dental product may further comprise a peroxide compound, a sweetener selected from xylitol, erythritol, and/or Stevia, and a flavoring agent. The composition is formulated to withstand specific environmental conditions, such as high temperatures, low air pressure, and waterproof packaging.

Novelty and Inventive Step

The new inventive concept's novelty lies in its adaptation of the original composition for specialized environments, which requires specific formulation adjustments and packaging considerations. The inventive step is the recognition of the need for tailored oral care solutions for niche markets and the development of a composition that meets these unique requirements.

Alternative Embodiments and Variations

Alternative embodiments of the inventive concept may include variations in the composition's pH level, the type and concentration of sweeteners, and the addition of other ingredients to enhance the product's performance in specific environments. Other variations may include different packaging designs, such as compact or portable containers, and specialized dispensing systems.

Potential Commercial Applications and Market

The inventive concept has commercial potential in various industries, including security, disaster relief, outdoor recreation, and aerospace. The target market includes government agencies, non-profit organizations, and private companies operating in these industries. The specialized oral care products may be marketed as premium solutions for specific environments, offering a competitive advantage in these niche markets.
