- A clear indication of the fluoride content, expressed in ppm (parts per million), for example: “contains 1,000 ppm fluoride ion” or “fluoride: 1,000 ppm”;
- The label text must be easily legible, with a high contrast between the text and background color, such as dark text on a light background or light text on a dark background, to ensure clear visibility for consumers.
2. Toothpastes containing sodium monofluorophosphate must bear the following warning statement: Children under 3 years should use a smear of toothpaste; Children aged 3 to under 6 years should use a pea-sized amount under adult supervision; In case of exposure to other sources of fluoride, consult a doctor or dentist; Contains sodium monofluorophosphate.
