As a tool for cleaning the oral cavity, the nozzle part of a dental rinser may come into contact with water, and the water may be mixed with food residues during use. Therefore, if the design of the dental rinser makes it possible that the nozzle part may come into direct contact with food. contact, then it may be considered a food contact material. As a food contact material, the process of DGCCRF testing in France specifically includes the following steps:
1. Understand the regulatory requirements: First, you need to understand the specific regulatory requirements of the French DGCCRF for food contact materials.
2. Determine the testing items: Determine the testing items that need to be performed based on the material and purpose of the dental rinser. These projects may include comprehensive migration testing, heavy metal dissolution testing, sensory testing, etc.
3. Choose a certification agency: Choose a qualified third-party testing agency to conduct product testing. These institutions need to be capable of conducting all relevant tests specified by DGCCRF.
4. Submit samples: Submit dental rinser samples to DeZewei testing agency for laboratory testing.
5. Conduct tests: The testing agency will conduct a series of tests on the dental rinser samples according to the requirements of DGCCRF, including but not limited to:
- Comprehensive migration test: Test whether the dental rinse material will migrate out harmful substances under simulated food conditions.
- Heavy metal dissolution test: detect the dissolution of heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, chromium, nickel and other materials in dental rinse materials.
- Sensory testing: Evaluate whether the dental rinse will change the taste, smell, color and other sensory properties of the food.
6. Quality management system: Establish and maintain a complete quality management system to ensure that every step of the product from raw materials to finished products meets regulatory requirements.
7. Obtain certification: If the test results meet the requirements of the DGCCRF, the dental rinser will be certified and allowed to be sold on the French market.
8. Market supervision: Even if the product has been certified, it still needs to conduct regular self-inspections and accept supervision and inspection by the French government to ensure that the product continues to comply with DGCCRF standards.
The above steps constitute the basic process for DGCCRF food contact material testing of dental rinsers in France. Through this process, the safety and compliance of dental rinse products can be ensured and the health of consumers can be protected.
