Side Effects & Adverse Reactions
Prolonged daily ingestion may result in various degrees of dental fluorosis in pediatric patients under 6 years, especially if the water fluoridation exceeds 0.6 ppm, since younger pediatric patients frequently cannot perform the brushing process without significant swallowing. Use in pediatric patients under age 6 years requires special supervision to prevent repeated swallowing of gel which could cause dental fluorosis. Read directions carefully before using. Keep out of reach of infants and children.

This prescription dental gel should be used once daily following use of a regular toothpaste unless otherwise instructed by your dental professional.

Follow these instructions unless otherwise instructed by your dental professional: 1. After brushing thoroughly with toothpaste, rinse as usual. Adults and pediatric patients 6 years of age or older, apply a thin ribbon of gel to the teeth with a toothbrush or mouth trays once daily for at least one minute, preferably at bedtime. 2. After use, adults expectorate gel. For the best results, do not eat, drink, or rinse for 30 minutes. Pediatric patients, age 6-16, expectorate gel after use and rinse mouth thoroughly.
