FIELD OF INVENTION
This invention relates to herbal composition for oral care and a process for the preparation thereof. Particularly this invention relates to a novel herbal composition for oral care, and a process for the preparation of the herbal composition for oral care.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
A number of tooth paste are as such known in the prior art for cleaning the tooth. Even the herbal tooth paste compositions are known in the prior art for cleaning the tooth. One of the herbal tooth paste is known in the art by the name 'Sudanta' which comprises black pepper, clove, cinnamon, mayaphal (Quercusinfectoria), bakul (MimusopsElengi), maricha (Piper nigrum). The tooth paste is manufactured and sold by Sri Sri Ayurveda.
Another herbal tooth paste is disclosed in the US patent application no. 5294434A discloses a dentifrice composition which comprises a mixture of aloe vera and chlorophyll. The aloe vera - chlorophyll mixture present in the tooth paste composition is in the amount of at least 1.5% by weight of the total composition mixture and the chlorophyll in the total composition mixture is in the amount of at least 0.09% by weight.
There are disadvantages associated with the herbal tooth paste known in the prior art. One of the disadvantages is that the conventional herbal tooth paste comprises only two herbs, aloe vera and chlorophyll.
Another disadvantages is that the other useful herbs have not been used so far and therefore the toothpaste is not capable to clean the teeth and gums completely.

Yet another disadvantages is that the convention tooth paste are incapable to keep oral freshness for a long time.
Therefore, there is a need to develop an herbal tooth paste comprising aloe vera and other efficacious natural and active herbs for oral care.
OBJECTIVE OF THE INVENTION
Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide an herbal composition for oral care which obviates the disadvantages associated with the prior art.
Another object of the present invention is to provide an herbal composition for oral care which is safe to use and oral freshness remain for a long time.
Yet another object of the present invention is to provide an herbal composition for oral care which do not have any adverse effect the teeth and gums.
Still another object of the present invention is to provide an herbal composition for oral care which can be prepared in the form of paste, powder, gel, liquid and / or crystal.
A further object of the present invention is to provide a process for the preparation of herbal composition for oral care.
