The taste took me off guard. Not sweet peppermint but natural peppermint. We've too long associated peppermint with the sweet sugar stuff. After I got used to the taste, I like using it. I can tell a complete difference with the tartar control. I actually brush longer because it doesn't cause my mouth to water up and spill over. Rinse well afterward. I must rinse (with water) up to 5 times to get the taste out of my mouth, but I've noticed my taste buds seems to be able to taste flavor better since I've been using it. I've only used it a few days, so I can't say much about the whitening part. I'll post again if I notice a major change.

it works ok. but i like the regular Tom's of Maine better. this "whole care" has a funny long lasting after taste that i don't care for at all. but YMMV so i'm going back to the regular one.
Comments about Tom's of Maine Whole Care with Fluoride Natural Toothpaste, Peppermint, 4.7 oz:
The tube is the problem here. It's no longer metal based and is some sort of plastic/biopolymer and it doesn't stay rolled up. It's just a frustrating change in packaging that was probably not test-marketed properly.

Has everything I want in toothpaste

Comments about Tom's of Maine Whole Care with Fluoride Natural Toothpaste, Peppermint, 4.7 oz:
That's why I've been using it ever since they started making the product. I'd been using Tom's of Maine toothpaste for years before that too.
I'm so happy to have the flavor and type of this toothpaste available that I'm ordering a dozen (saves on cost and reduces energy consumption too).
It is so annoying how product diversification means you have less choice ultimately, because retailers can't stock everything available, and therefore only shelve the priciest items that manufacturers developed just so they could get you to pay extra for something you don't need.
So I had to buy this here, instead of running all over town to find that no one stocks this item or never has it consistently.
Comments about Tom's of Maine Whole Care with Fluoride Natural Toothpaste, Peppermint, 4.7 oz:
I had an old tube of this product and fell in love with it because It didn't leave a surfactant-like coating in my mouth. (That makes me feel the need to spit for up to 10 minutes after brushing). My mouth feels clean after using this. I went to buy another however, and noticed that not only have they changed the packaging, but they no longer list "peppermint oil" in the ingredients and instead have added "natural flavors". My sensitivity to chemicals is what brought me to this brand and I don't like that umbrella category, "natural flavors". That can mean anything. Also, they say on the package "no...artificial sweeteners...", but have listed "xylitol". Argh...I feel like this is no longer a real "natural" product. Buyer Beware. So disappointed.

Comments about Tom's of Maine Whole Care with Fluoride Natural Toothpaste, Peppermint, 4.7 oz:
I Usually love all the spearmint/peppermint varieties of tom's toothpaste but the new "whole care" line irritated the skin around my mouth, something I experienced with other brands but never with Tom's, until this product.
Comments about Tom's of Maine Whole Care with Fluoride Natural Toothpaste, Peppermint, 4.7 oz:
I prefer to use natural products, with no harsh chemicals in them. This product is good, but tastes bad. I got a sample of the children's toothpaste, which is flavored, and I like the taste of that better.
Comments about Tom's of Maine Whole Care with Fluoride Natural Toothpaste, Peppermint, 4.7 oz:
My teeth feel cleaner with Tom's than with any toothpaste I've ever used. Keeps breath fresher much longer, even overnight. It is a bit expensive, but what are clean teeth worth to you? I just won't use anything else but Tom's.

Children 2 to 6 years: Use only a pea-sized amount and supervise child's brushing and rinsing (to minimize swallowing).
