Dog Teething Gel? Can a puppy overdose? (puppy tax picture included)

My 13 week old Whippet puppy is really struggling with teething.

Full on whimpering, zooming, chomping. She get slight relief from ice cubes/frozen carrots, and various chew type toys.

I've got puppy teething gel which works a charm, turning her from a Tasmanian Devil back into the sweetest affectionate puppy ever. BUT it only lasts a few hours and the pack says apply twice a day.

There's no warning on the packet, and I can't find anything via Dr Google, but can I give it more frequently?

Can’t see anything in them that’d do more than an upset tummy if she had too much... and I suspect that’d have to be quite a lot of it.

Thank you! Little madam is much better today, bit I suspect like most baby's she'll have good and bad days with teething.

I can cope with a few runny poops if it means less agony for her.

My pup is teething and having random loose poops, I'm not using any teething gels or anything, I presume they are a bit like human babies that can get runny poops from the excess saliva they produce from the chewing.
