In various embodiments, the present invention provides a tooth whitening composition comprising a peroxide composite and an orally acceptable carrier. The peroxide composite comprises a peroxide compound and a porous cross-linked polymer, preferably in the form of a microporous particulate. The peroxide compound can be sorbed onto the porous crosslinked polymer. The porous cross-linked polymer may comprise a polymerized polyunsaturated monomer selected from polyacrylates, polymethacrylates, polyitaconates, and mixtures thereof. The carrier can be non-aqueous, and can comprise a film forming material. Methods are also provided for whitening a tooth surface with the tooth whitening compositions.本發明係於不同的實例中提供一種牙齒潔白組成物,其包括一種過氧化物複合物,與一種口可接受之載體。氧化物複合物包括一種過氧化物化合物與一種多孔的交聯聚合物,以於一種微孔細粒之形態為較佳,過氧化物化合物可被吸著於多孔的交聯聚合物上。多孔的交聯聚合物可包括一種聚合的多不飽和單體,選自群組包括:聚丙烯酸酯、聚甲基丙烯酸酯、聚衣康酸酯、與其混合物。載體可為非水性,並可包括一種膜生成物料。本發明亦提供使用牙齒潔白組成物,用以潔白牙齒表面之方法。
