I use Gel-Kam regularly on all of my top remaining teeth. After continual use of Gel-kam a side effect of it is that it discolors teeth and the stains can only be removed by a clean from the dentist. I get my teeth professionally cleaned now every 2 months, and that removes any discoloration or stains from that treatment.
