WARNINGS: 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 the cream which could cause dental fluorosis. Read directions carefully before using. Keep out of reach of infants and children.

CONTRA INDICATIONS: Do not use in pediatric patients under age 6 years unless recommended by a dentist or physician.
