Could Accidental Gum Contact With Odomos Mosquito Repellent Cause Chemical Toxin?

I have mistaken odomos for tooth paste and brush my teeth with it. When find it not sweetened as usual I realised it was mosquito repellent. I wash my mouth thoroughly with water and subsequently with tooth paste. Nothing hss been taken just gum contact with the cream. May I know whether I am in danger of chemical toxin? Thanks for your answer for my action.
