Fight Cavities with Science & Nature!

Contains fluoride to support cavity prevention & calcium to help clean teeth.

Fluoride helps prevent cavities.
Fluoride helps remineralize soft spots on teeth before they turn into full-fledged cavities and strengthens the tooth structure so enamel becomes more resistant to decay.

Dear Friends,
When we founded Tom's of Maine in 1970, we based it on the idea that nature has answers to our everyday needs. What makes our products so effective? We use natural ingredients in innovative ways without adding any artificial flavors, fragrances, colors, or preservatives. Our toothpaste, mouthwash, soap, shampoo, deodorant, and self care products have proven our original belief: ingredients from nature really work. Please let us know what you think!
-Kate and Tom Chappell; Cofounders, Tom's of Maine

Great toothpaste!

This is the second Tom's of Maine toothpaste I purchased (I don't remember what the first kind was). I originally began buying their toothpaste because I didn't like the idea of using something with animal ingredients to clean my teeth. I was surprised when I first used their toothpaste because of the flavor. Because it doesn't have artificial flavoring, it isn't quite as "flavored" as you might expect. It doesn't really have much of a flavor so that can take some getting used to but I adjusted quickly. Besides the lack of animal ingredients and the natural-ness of this toothpaste, I love the clean feeling you get after using it. Since I used this toothpaste, using a "normal" toothpaste seems to result in a "fake" clean feeling while this one seems to have a genuine clean feeling after a brushing. I am not sure how well this cleans or whitens teeth but I am assuming it works just as well as any toothpaste, if not better. I plan on buying this toothpaste again and again and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a toothpaste that provides a genuine clean feeling after a brushing.

Purchased by accident. Did not want a toothpaste with fluoride, so will not order again. Have used other Tom's of Maine toothpastes that I liked them better and will order those again. ...Read complete review

Comments about Tom's of Maine Cavity Protection Natural Fluoride Toothpaste, Spearmint, 5.5 oz:

I first used Tom's of Maine spearmint toothpaste in college, which was over ten years ago. I strayed from natural products since then. Recently I've been clearing out chemical products and transitioning back to green. I like this toothpaste because it cleans thoroughly and doesn't leave an aftertaste. Tastes like baking soda with a hint of spearmint. Foams well and it's not overpowering. I miss the old fashioned tubes, but this style is less messy. Another solid product from Tom's.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Tom's of Maine Cavity Protection Natural Fluoride Toothpaste, Spearmint, 5.5 oz:

It's very hard to find a toothpaste that isn't whitening. Whitening agents are abrasive and not recommended by my dentist because they can harm enamel. So I just want a fluoride toothpaste that won't taste like artificial sweeteners which make me gag.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Tom's of Maine Cavity Protection Natural Fluoride Toothpaste, Spearmint, 5.5 oz:

I found it hard to find this flavor once TOMS changed their packaging. I still prefer the old tube which made it a bit harder of my 3 year old to squeeze thereby limiting how much he "ate", but I am much happier with the spearmint than the other flavors. A bit disappointed that TOMS changed this to a fluoride product. I liked the choice of fluoride free. Overall, it is good to have found it agin and only on drugstore.com

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
