WHAT HAPPENS IF I SWALLOW SOME OF THE GEL?

At Smile Optics, we strongly discourage the consumption of the gel found in our Gel & Syringe Refills. However, if a small quantity is accidentally ingested, it is unlikely to cause any significant adverse effects.

It's important to note that our teeth whitening gel is formulated to be safe for oral use when applied as directed. The gel is designed to primarily come into contact with the surfaces of your teeth, where it can effectively work to whiten and brighten your smile.

In the event that a small amount of the gel is swallowed, there is no need to panic. The gel is generally well-tolerated by the body, and any potential side effects from ingestion are minimal.

If you accidentally swallow a small quantity of the gel, we recommend rinsing your mouth thoroughly with water to dilute and remove any remnants of the gel. If you experience any unusual discomfort or adverse reactions, it is advisable to seek medical advice or contact a healthcare professional.

To ensure your safety and optimize the teeth whitening process, we strongly advise following the instructions provided with our products and using them as directed. If you have any concerns or additional questions regarding the use of our teeth whitening gel, our customer support team is available to assist you.

I'M PREGNANT, CAN I STILL USE THIS PRODUCT?

No, we do not recommend using Smile Optics Teeth Whitening Products if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Our Peroxide Gel & Syringe Refills contain peroxides, which may not be suitable for use during pregnancy.

As a precautionary measure, we advise against the use of these products by pregnant or breastfeeding women. While the specific risks associated with teeth whitening during pregnancy have not been extensively studied, it is generally recommended to avoid any unnecessary chemical exposure during this time.

We prioritize the safety and well-being of our customers, and we encourage you to consult with your healthcare provider for guidance on teeth whitening options that are suitable for you during pregnancy. They will be able to provide personalized advice based on your specific circumstances.

If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to our customer support team. We are here to assist you and provide additional information as needed.

ARE THE WHITENING KIT SAFE FOR CHILDREN?

Our Smile Opitcs Teeth Whitening brand prioritizes the safety and well-being of our customers, including children. However, we do not recommend the use of our Peroxide Gel & Syringe Refills for individuals under the age of 16.

The composition and concentration of the whitening gel are formulated specifically for adult teeth and oral health conditions. Children's teeth and gums are still developing, and it is important to consult with a dentist or pediatric dental professional for appropriate dental care and whitening solutions for younger individuals.

We encourage parents and guardians to ensure their children's dental health by promoting regular dental hygiene practices, such as brushing, flossing, and routine dental check-ups. If you have any specific concerns or questions regarding teeth whitening for children, we recommend consulting with a dental professional who can provide personalized guidance based on your child's unique dental needs.

At Smile Opitcs, we are committed to providing safe and effective teeth whitening products for our customers.

IS SMILE OPTICS FDA APPROVED?

At Smile Optics Teeth Whitening, we prioritize the safety and quality of our products. While our manufacturing facilities strictly adhere to FDA regulations, it's important to understand the FDA's role in the approval process.

The FDA does not provide individual product approvals, including for teeth whitening products. Instead, they establish guidelines and regulations for cosmetic products and set requirements for over-the-counter (OTC) drugs. These guidelines ensure that manufacturers comply with standards related to product safety, labeling, and manufacturing practices.

Rest assured that we fully comply with these FDA regulations in our manufacturing processes to ensure the quality and safety of our teeth whitening products. We are committed to providing you with effective and reliable products that meet or exceed industry standards.

If you have any further questions or concerns regarding the safety or quality of our products, please don't hesitate to reach out to our customer support team. We are here to address any inquiries you may have.
