Toothpaste products filed by the same filer, the use of the same efficacy of raw materials verified to play an efficacy role, and the concentration of the formula is not lower than the filed products, claiming to have the same efficacy of caries prevention, plaque inhibition, dentin sensitivity, gum problems, etc., can be exempted from the evaluation of the efficacy of the human body.

Claims other than clean other effects, the human body is required to conduct efficacy evaluation or other efficacy evaluation, the filer based on the results of efficacy evaluation to prepare and publish a summary of efficacy claims evaluation.

Toothpastes that only claim cleaning efficacy are exempt from efficacy evaluation.

Article 30  The filer shall refer to the "Cosmetic Safety Assessment Technical Guidelines" of the relevant principles and requirements, combined with the actual situation of toothpaste products, scientific and reasonable to carry out product safety assessment, and submit product safety assessment report.

1. The product safety assessment report generally includes, but is not limited to, the following contents: summary, product introduction, product formulation, safety assessment of the components in the formulation, assessment of possible risk substances, risk control measures, conclusions of the safety assessment, curriculum vitae and signature of the safety assessor, relevant references, appendices and so on.

2. The product safety assessment report needs to assess the safety of each ingredient in the toothpaste formula. If the safety of the ingredients in the formula cannot be confirmed by the public data and information, the product safety assessment information can also be improved in one of the following ways:

(2) In accordance with the relevant principles and requirements of the Technical Guidelines for the Safety Assessment of Cosmetics, etc., provide information that can support the assessment of the toxicological endpoints of the formulated ingredients under the formulated use level.

(3) According to the actual situation of the products, in order to ensure the safety of the products as a principle, carry out acute oral toxicity test, mutagenicity test, sensitization test and other toxicological tests.

The above assessment information should be in line with the relevant technical specification standards and technical guidelines for toothpaste and cosmetics issued by the State Drug Administration.

Article 31  The toothpaste products for export only, should be filed in the registration filing information service platform for the record, by the manufacturer to submit the following information:

1. Product name;

2. Countries (regions) to be exported;

3. Product labeling pictures, including the front of the product sales package three-dimensional picture, product packaging plan and product instructions (if any).

Article 32  Children's toothpaste means toothpaste claimed to be suitable for children under the age of 12 years (including 12 years). Children's toothpaste can claim that the efficacy of the category is limited to cleaning, caries prevention. Labeling "for the entire population", "the whole family" and other terms or the use of trademarks, patterns, harmonies, letters, hanyu pinyin, numbers, symbols, packaging forms, etc. implying that the use of the product population includes children's products in accordance with the management of children's toothpaste.

Children's toothpaste should be "attention" or "warning" as a guide, in the sales package can be visually labeled "should be used under adult supervision", "should not be consumed", "beware of swallowing" and other relevant warning language; add fluoride children's toothpaste should be labeled single-use limit. Can not be consumed" "Beware of swallowing" and other related warning language; add fluoride children's toothpaste should be labeled single-use limit.

The filer shall design children's toothpaste according to the physiological characteristics of children, follow the principle of safety priority, the principle of efficacy must be, the principle of minimal formulation, submit the formulation design principles in the safety assessment information, and the necessity of using raw materials in the formulation to explain.
