A mother with a 2 yr old who nurses during the night has been prescribed
Quatro Night Whitener XL2
for tooth whitening ,it contains propylene glycogycol,sodium
fluoride,potassium nitrate,hydro-xyprotyl cellulose,aloe vera.carbamide
peroxide,emulsifying wax,hydrogen peroxide and flavor funnel silica,and
glycerine,she is to put the gel in a mouth guard and wear it for 4
nights.She is unsure if this is safe for her baby.Does anyone have any
information on this.? My thoughts are that the age of the baby plus the fact
that it is applied topically will mean very little in the breast milk but
wondered if anything has been mentioned about this before.I looked up 2 of
the ingredients fluroide and aloe vera in Hales 1999 but have found no info
anywhere about the other ingredients.
