Uses & Benefits
Daily oral hygiene toothpaste for prevention of dental caries (cavities), control of plaque and germs, and maintenance of gum health; helps reduce bad breath.
How It Works
Fluoride helps remineralize tooth enamel and makes it more resistant to acid attack from bacteria, reducing the risk of cavities. Abrasives help remove plaque and surface stains, while surfactants help disperse debris and improve cleaning.
Directions for Use
Brush teeth thoroughly at least twice daily (morning and night) or as directed by a dentist. Use a pea-sized amount for children; spit out after brushing and do not swallow. Rinse mouth after brushing; supervise children during use.
Side Effects
Mouth irritation, altered taste, gum irritation, nausea (if swallowed), dental fluorosis in children (with excessive ingestion)
Warnings & Precautions
For dental use only; do not swallow. Children under 6 years: use pea-sized amount under adult supervision to minimize swallowing; if fluoride is being taken from other sources, consult a dentist/doctor. If irritation occurs, discontinue and seek advice. Keep out of reach of children.
Drug Interactions
No clinically significant drug interactions expected with topical toothpaste use; excessive ingestion may add to total fluoride exposure from other fluoride supplements/mouthwashes.
