This cleans and whitens and the licorice like fennel taste goes on for hours. I love that it does not burn or irritate the corners of my mouth. It is a bit more foamy and creamy than it was in the old...Read more

I don't have any complaints for this product. It makes my teeth feel cleaner than any other toothpaste ever has and it's foams really well. I will definitely buy this again.

I love this toothpaste because it does not overwhelm my mouth with a synthetic mint flavor that makes me gag. It is fluoride-free, which I am beginning to think is the way to go, and leaves my mouth ...Read more

I love Tom's but the formulas and flavors do vary. This one is great in the Spearmint flavor - if you can get it. I much prefer spearmint to peppermint. Not overly abrasive but it is a bit abrasive...Read more

I picked this up because tartar control and whitening are the two major things I look for in a toothpaste. My teeth just aren't naturally white, and no matter how much I brush and floss, I get quite a...Read more

This leaves my mouth smelling fresh and it's natural, but like other toothpastes, it doesn't seem to actually whiten.
