Our clinical studies are designed to deliver maximum insight with operational efficiency. Each protocol includes dental oversight, oral safety evaluations, and acceptability scoring, alongside objective efficacy endpoints. We offer combined assessments within a single study design (e.g., anti-plaque, anti-tartar, whitening, and stain reduction) to streamline timelines and budgets. Timing and study duration remain fully adaptable to your development phase. Optional subjective questionnaires provide consumer-perceived performance data, while protocols are available for in-use testing on participants under 16, covering both classic cosmetic formats and innovative devices like toothbrushes.
Behind these capabilities is Eurofins C&PC’s dedicated network of seven specialised laboratories, staffed with experienced dentists, toxicologists, and clinical technicians. Our full-service model integrates active substances analysis, in vitro testing, and clinical validation under dentist supervision, ensuring regulatory compliance, safety, and efficacy in one streamlined process.
Whether you're developing classic formulations or next-gen oral devices, Eurofins C&PC delivers the expertise you need to stand out.
