XCS-11 is a mouthwash formulation that uses chlorine dioxide to effectively neutralize volatile sulfur compounds, the main cause of bad breath, providing a fast-acting and long-lasting fresh breath solution without the side effects of traditional agents.

Overview

XCS-11 is an advanced oral care solution designed to provide long-lasting fresh breath by targeting volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs), which are the primary contributors to bad breath. Unlike traditional mouthwash agents such as chlorhexidine (CHX) and cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), XCS-11 utilizes chlorine dioxide (ClO2) to achieve fast-acting results without unwanted side effects. The solution is available in two formulations, XCS-11 with 2% available chlorine dioxide and XCS-11 Pro with 5% available chlorine dioxide, catering to different levels of oral care needs.

Technical specifications
  • Active ingredient: Sodium chlorite releasing chlorine dioxide.
  • Effectiveness: Proven to neutralize VSCs rapidly, with noticeable results in under 5 minutes.
  • Benefits: Reduces biofilms, fights plaque, and reduces bad breath germs, enhancing overall oral hygiene.
  • Formulations: Available in 2% and 5% chlorine dioxide concentrations for tailored oral care.
  • Consumer appeal: Provides a clean mouth feel, improved taste, and long-lasting freshness without the side effects associated with CHX.
Technology readiness level

XCS-11 is at a Technology Readiness Level 9, indicating that it is fully commercialized and available for consumer use. Further research is planned to evaluate its impact on the oral microbiome and its dose-response effectiveness on breath, biofilms, and teeth whitening.
