Fluoride Oral Gel with 0.4% Stannous Fluoride in a 4.3 oz Tube for Use After Brushing and Flossing

Fluoride oral gel adds a separate step to your home oral-care routine after regular brushing and flossing. Colgate Gel-Kam contains 0.4% (w/w) stannous fluoride and comes in a 4.3 oz tube, with Mint and Fruit & Berry flavors sold as separate selections.

This gel is used alongside your usual dental hygiene routine and regular professional care. It is not a toothpaste replacement. Read the tube directions before use, spit out after application, and do not swallow.

The gel may cause surface staining of teeth. Do not use a tube with a broken or missing seal. Keep it out of reach of children and store tightly closed at 68–77°F (20–25°C).

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this fluoride oral gel replace my toothpaste?

No. This fluoride oral gel is a separate treatment step used after regular brushing and flossing, alongside your usual hygiene routine and professional dental care.

How do I apply the gel?

Apply this fluoride oral gel after brushing and flossing. Shake excess water from your toothbrush, cover the bristles with gel and brush thoroughly. Keep the gel on your teeth for one minute, then spit it out. Do not swallow, rinse, eat or drink for 30 minutes afterward.

How do the Mint and Fruit & Berry selections differ?

The two selections differ in flavor. Both are 4.3 oz tubes of fluoride oral gel containing 0.4% (w/w) stannous fluoride.

Can children use this fluoride oral gel?

The directions cover adults and children 12 years and older. Supervise children until they can use the gel correctly without supervision. For children under 12, consult a dentist or physician before use. Keep the tube out of reach of children; if more than the amount used for brushing is swallowed, get medical help or contact a Poison Control Center immediately.

What should I know before using the gel for sensitive teeth?

Do not use this fluoride oral gel for sensitive teeth for longer than four weeks unless a dentist or physician recommends it. Follow the tube directions for frequency, and stop use and seek professional advice if symptoms persist or worsen. Sensitive teeth may need prompt dental care.

Can the gel stain teeth, and how should I store it?

This fluoride oral gel may cause surface staining of teeth. Adequate brushing may help prevent staining, and a dentist may remove it. Store the tube tightly closed at 68–77°F (20–25°C), and do not use it if the seal is broken or missing.
