Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for providing an anti-oxidant to an oral cavity of a mammalian subject. An oral composition comprising an anti-oxidant active ingredient comprising a free-B-ring flavonoid and an orally acceptable carrier is contacted with oral tissue in the oral cavity. The anti-oxidant active ingredient reduces one or more reactive oxygen species, or free radicals in the oral cavity. Methods are also provided for preparing the anti-oxidant containing oral composition.
