Natural Fluoride-Free Toothpastes
Cinnamint, Fennel Oil, Gingermint Baking Soda, Peppermint Baking Soda and Spearmint
Overview
In 1975, Tom's of Maine premiered the first natural toothpaste, which has become the
flagship of the company's natural personal care product line. Our philosophy with regard
to our products has always been to include safe, natural ingredients and to keep our
product formulations as simple as possible. This philosophy of simplicity led us to
produce a toothpaste that included the herbal resins propolis
and myrrh but did not contain fluoride.
Although propolis and myrrh don't have the cavity-fighting properties of fluoride, they do
deliver the significant benefits of acting as an astringent (myrrh) and gum stimulant
(propolis). Calcium
carbonate acts to neutralize plaque acids, which can help to prevent the onset of
plaque and tartar. After our original toothpaste had been on the market for a while, many
customers (and their dental care professionals) wrote to tell us that they believed that
preventing cavities is an essential part of what they want a toothpaste to do. By
listening to what our customers were telling us, we learned that many people want to use a
natural toothpaste that also delivers cavity-preventing benefits. When we created the
first natural toothpaste with fluoride in 1981, we knew that there was still strong
interest in non-fluoride toothpaste. Some people get as much fluoride as they want from
other sources such as well water, fluoridated municipal water, or prescription
supplements. Others wish to avoid fluoride because of individual sensitivities or personal
preference. We realized, then, that the most responsible thing to do would be to offer
a choice. This way, individual consumers and their dental care professionals can
determine an oral hygiene regimen that is best suited to their individual needs. We offer
a choice because we respect our customers' diverse needs and interests. Packaged in an
aluminum tube with a thin lining of food-grade plastic that insulates the toothpaste from
the aluminum. This tube can be recycled with soda cans. The carton that protects the tube
is made from 100% recycled paperboard.

| Silly Strawberry Fluoride Toothpaste for Children |
| Orange Fluoride Toothpaste for Children |
Overview
Tom's uses pure fruit extracts to give the children's toothpaste a flavor that kids love.
Because they don't contain saccharin, or other artificial flavors or colors, we think that
this is a toothpaste that parents can feel good about as well. Many children don't like
the minty taste of adult toothpaste or super-sweet bubblegum taste of conventional kids'
brands. Rather than use artificial flavors or sweeteners, Tom's worked for several years
to develop a unique gel-paste formula that is a perfect complement to the natural appeal
of fruit extracts. Orange, strawberry, banana and pineapple are blended together to create
two "child-approved" flavors, Silly Strawberry and Outrageous Orange. Tom's
relationship with children does not end with purchase of the product, however. Each
children's toothpaste box invites kids to send in pictures they draw and invites them to
share news about recycling in their communities. Each child who sends a letter or picture
receives a personal response from Tom's. As a result, our office is brightly decorated
with some of the great artwork we receive. Packaged in an aluminum tube with a thin lining
of food-grade plastic that insulates the toothpaste from the aluminum. This tube can be
recycled with soda cans. The carton that protects the tube is made from 100% recycled
paperboard.Overview

Overview
Our coconut-based shampoos are pure and gentle enough to use frequently, with no synthetic
dyes or overpowering fragrances.
Tom's Natural Aloe & Almond shampoo gives you clean, healthy hair full
of natural body & life. Designed to clean your hair & scalp effectively
without drying. The rich lather gives you clean, shiny, healthy
looking hair that is easy to manage. The natural moisturizer from the Aloe Vera
plant helps maintain your hair's moisture balance, without
leaving a dulling film.
Leading an active life makes it necessary for us to shampoo frequently. We
wanted to develop a shampoo that was gentle enough to use every day, with built
in conditioners to prevent a dried out, over-washed
look. We used our decade of experience in formulating natural shampoos to create
Tom's Natural Shampoo with Aloe & Almond for this purpose. We think you'll
find it pleasant & reassuring to use a natural shampoo made without
artificial preservatives, dyes & fragrance; it delivers the extra benefits
of aloe vera while letting your clean healthy
hair shine through. Try it & let us know what you think.
Our Natural Honeysuckle Baby Shampoo is especially gentle
to the scalp and hair and is well suited for use with children. It is not, however,
tear-free. Tear-free shampoos add ingredients which inhibit the eye's ability to form
tears. Tear production is the eye's natural and healthy response to cleanse itself of
foreign substances. We have therefore decided not to use "tear-free" ingredients
in our natural baby shampoo. Packaged in fully recyclable #2 HDPE plastic bottles that
contains post-consumer recycled plastics. These innovative bottles put a layer of
post-consumer regrind (PCR) plastic in between the inner and outer layers of virgin HDPE
in order to deliver high recycled content and optimum sterility.
