Will An Accidental Intake Of A Tile Cleaner Damage The Teeth?

While cleaning my bathroom I sprayed tile cleaner and unknowingly got some on my toothbrush. When I went to brush my teeth I started to brush then tasted a bit of cleaner so I spit it out and rinsed out my mouth. I do not think I actually swallowed any but on the bottle it said if swallowed you are to contact a physician. I feel fine but I would just like to make sure that it will not make me sick or anything.

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
Nothing to be panic or worried since you have spit the cleaner. If you get any stomach pain or vomiting then you consult a oral physician or general physician. Nothing will happen to teeth, but the mucosa might get affected, it may result in chemical burn or contact stomatitis. These conditions may cause burning sensation or ulcerations. If you have any of these symptoms then consult a oral physician.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
