【発明の詳細な説明】
産業上の利用分野
この発明は、口腔内の歯垢の除去及びムシ南画、歯槽膿
漏歯に対する殺菌効果を有するチューインガムに関する
ものである。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application This invention relates to a chewing gum that has a bactericidal effect on removing dental plaque in the oral cavity and on teeth with cavities and pyorrhea.
従来の技術
従来のチューインガムは、チクル、酢酸ビニルなどの合
成樹脂よりなるチューインガム基体に甘味料、ハツカ、
香料等を加えて風味を付け、成型したものである。Conventional technology Conventional chewing gum has a chewing gum base made of synthetic resin such as chicle or vinyl acetate, and sweeteners, honey,
It is flavored by adding fragrances, etc., and then molded.
発明が解決すべき課題
本発明の目的は、歯垢の除去効果、殺菌作用及び口臭予
防効果を付加したチューインガムを提供することである
。Problems to be Solved by the Invention An object of the present invention is to provide a chewing gum that has additional effects of removing plaque, bactericidal action, and preventing bad breath.
課題を解決するための手段
特公昭６０−５７３４０号公報に記載されているように
、半導体のうちＮ型半導体は光をあてると、光の当たっ
た表面では水分から電子を奪い取る酸化反応が、一方、
光の当たらない影の表面からは電子を放出する環元反応
が起こるという特性を有する。Means for Solving the Problems As described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 60-57340, when an N-type semiconductor among semiconductors is exposed to light, an oxidation reaction that takes electrons from moisture occurs on the exposed surface. ,
It has the characteristic that a ring element reaction that releases electrons occurs from the shadowed surface where light does not hit.
Ｎ型半導体のなかでも、特に二酸化チタンは、■かな光
エネルギーであっても上記のような光電気化学反応を起
こすことができる。Among N-type semiconductors, titanium dioxide in particular can cause the above-mentioned photoelectrochemical reaction even with low light energy.
このような充電効果を有する二酸化チタンをチューイン
ガム基体に添加すると、唄喘時の口の開閉に伴ない口腔
内に照射する光によって二酸化チタンの表面に強い酸化
環元反応が起こる。その時、虫歯の有力な原因菌である
ストレプトコッカスミュータンス、歯槽ｍ漏の有力な原
因菌であるバクテロイデス・ジンジバリス等が電子の受
は渡し相手となり、死滅する。When titanium dioxide having such a charging effect is added to a chewing gum base, a strong oxidation ring reaction occurs on the surface of titanium dioxide due to the light irradiated into the oral cavity as the mouth opens and closes during wheezing. At that time, Streptococcus mutans, which is a leading cause of tooth decay, and Bacteroides gingivalis, which is a leading cause of alveolar leakage, become recipients of the electrons and die.
また、反応時に生成されるＯＨラジカルが歯垢を分解す
ると共に、虫歯菌がつくり出し、歯に穴を開ける乳酸を
も分解する。In addition, the OH radicals generated during the reaction decompose dental plaque and also decompose lactic acid, which is produced by caries bacteria and creates holes in teeth.
特に、二酸化チタンを、口腔外において膨張させるいわ
ゆるツーセンガムに混入すると大きな光エネルギーを供
給することができるのでより効果的である。In particular, it is more effective to mix titanium dioxide into so-called Zusen gum, which is expanded outside the oral cavity, since it can supply a large amount of light energy.
なお、二酸化チタンは、現在食品添加物として広く使用
され、体内に吸収されず、安全な物質であり、電子を放
出中、光を遮っても直ちに放出を停止することｔまない
。Incidentally, titanium dioxide is currently widely used as a food additive, is not absorbed into the body, is a safe substance, and does not immediately stop emitting electrons even if light is blocked while emitting electrons.
本発明のチューインガムはチューインガム基体に二酸化
チタンの微粉末を添加したことを特徴とする構成を有す
る。The chewing gum of the present invention has a structure characterized by adding fine powder of titanium dioxide to a chewing gum base.

い、チューインガム基体を二酸化チタンと別の色にして
、これに二酸化チタンで文字、絵画等の表示を行うよう
にしてもよい。Addition of fine titanium dioxide powder to the chewing gum base is carried out by mixing, coating, or by wrapping a candy-like substance containing fine titanium dioxide powder in the chewing gum base, and making the chewing gum base a different color from the titanium dioxide. , characters, pictures, etc. may be displayed using titanium dioxide.

たので、光をあてると酸化環元反応を起こして虫歯菌、
歯１！ｌ１ｌｌｆ％ｉ菌を殺菌することができ、歯垢及
び乳酸を分解して歯肉や歯を保護することができる。Effects of the Invention In the present invention, titanium dioxide is added to the chewing gum base, so when exposed to light, it causes an oxidation ring reaction and inhibits dental caries and bacteria.
Teeth 1! It can sterilize l1llf%i bacteria, decompose dental plaque and lactic acid, and protect gums and teeth.
また、−船釣に歯槽ｍ漏菌は臭いを出すので、これを殺
菌することによって口臭を予防することができる。Furthermore, alveolar leakage bacteria emit a smell when fishing on a boat, so by sterilizing this bacteria, bad breath can be prevented.
