Warnings and precautions
DO NOT SWALLOW.
- Keep out of reach of children under 6 years of age. If more than used for brushing is accidentally swallowed, get medical help or contact a Poison Control Center right away.
- Prolonged daily ingestion may result in various degrees of dental fluorosis in children with developing dentition, especially if the water fluoridation exceeds 0.6 ppm, since younger children frequently cannot perform the brushing process without significant swallowing.
- Use in children under age 6 years requires special supervision to prevent repeated swallowing of toothpaste which could cause dental fluorosis.
- Read directions carefully before using.
- Keep out of reach of infants and children.
- Sensitive teeth may indicate a serious problem that may need prompt care by a dentist.
- See your dentist if the problem persists or worsens. Do not use this product longer than 4 weeks unless recommended by a dentist or physician.
