New Year. Resolutions. Taking care of ourselves more… yes, these are all in my mind, and who can forget about our teeth and oral health? We can’t and this is where Tom’s of Maine Dental Health for AllTM program comes to our rescue. I had a wonderful opportunity to try out a whole slew of Natural Care Tom’s of Main products and we are in love! The toothpaste is just what I need with my sensitive teeth! Hubby really likes the Fragrance Free Deoderant. Oh, I can go on and on about all the products of Tom’s that I love!
February is National Children’s Dental Health Month and throughout January, with the purchase of any Tom’s of Maine natural care product, the company will donate a portion of its sales to help thousands of American families gain greater access to much needed dental care. Next month, Tom’s of Maine will award dental clinics across the country grants for oral health projects.
The money raised goes to several resources including examination equipment to help clinics give their communities the best care possible. The p
rogram brings retailers, dental clinics and local communities together to make a difference in the lives of families in need. I am always curious about the latest oral health goods and how I can improve myself and this is a great way to start!
Tom’s of Maine Dental Health for All Program Results/Facts:
According to the U.S. Surgeon General, 120 million Americans lack dental care.
The Tom’s of Maine Dental Health For AllTM program supports community organizations that provide dental care to people who would otherwise go without. Your purchase of Tom’s of Maine will help to fund community-based clinics that are working hard to fill the gaps in dental coverage and access. Here are some of the program’s results over the past four years:
- 25 school- and community-based dental clinics have received grants from Tom’s to increase patient capacity and improve or expand their patient services.
- Nearly 60,000 annual patient visits can now be scheduled.
- Over 238,000 tubes of free toothpaste have been given to underserved children and adults.

I subscribed again, like you suggested.
Make tooth brushing part of your “get ready for bed” routine. The kids will just brush as a matter of course.
I put your button on my blog.

I love the natural deodorants. Thanks for a great giveaway
They sell floss. We have a bedtime routine that includes brushing teeth.
Tom’s of Maine also has ANTICAVITY Mouthwash. My children always wanted to brush their teeth. They saw me brushing and they wanted to do it too. None of them wanted me to do it for them. They wanted to do it themselves. My oldest son did require watching because he sometimes missed some places.
I subscribed to your newsletter.
I love the Lavender Deodorant! You can make tooth brushing fun by turning it into a game.
I loves Tom’s of Maine products. They also make deodorant without antiperspirant. This is great for keeping aluminum from making deposits in your body! Thank you for the great opportunity!
I have loved their peppermint mouthwash for years now.
I use the deodorant. It doesn’t leave my underarms feeling sticky, and the fragrance is very light (it’s not perfume, it’s the natural scent of the ingredients, at least as far as I can tell) and it doesn’t set off my husband’s allergies. All good things!
I always use their deodorant! Also like their toothpaste!
Our little one always takes her bath and then we wrap her in a towel and set her up on the counter. Then we get her toothbrush with her toothpaste and brush her teeth. She loves it so we let her do it by herself when we are done. It’s a big girl thing! We tell her how pretty her teeth are and that this will keep them that way.

i have used their toothpaste and deoderant – great!!
I love that they have Deodorant for sensitive skin.
I have some 4 year olds who get pretty stinky when they play outside ~yet I hate for them to use the store bought deodorant that is for adults.
This would be safe even for younger kids.
My grandson LOVES to brush his teeth. He’s only 16 months so he has only 6 teeth but he is always asking for his toothbrush.
I’d really love to win, last day to enter. I discovered Tom’s of Maine Fluoride Free Antiplaque Propolis & Myrrh Toothpaste at my friend’s house when I slept over for a slumber party with the kids. Great stuff.
Deodorant for sensitive skin
Deodorant for sensitive skin sounds great. Thanks for the contest.
Tom’s of Maine also makes a moisturizing body wash. I get my children to brush their teeth by withholding affection and attention until they brush for the full two minutes.
Anticavity flouride mouthwash. We all brush together so we’re sure they brush too.
I like the moisturizing Body Bar.
My daughter has to take her inhaler before bed, so it has become a bedtime habit to inhale and then brush!
I’d love to try Tom’s Natural Deodorant.
I like the Lavender Deodorant. We brush our teeth together! Thanks!

They have anti plaque round floss
Antiplaque round floss.
My daughter will brush as long as she has her SpinBrush.
Tom’s Anticavity Fluoride Mouthwash looks interesting. I currently use another brand, but I’ll try this when I can find it.
I often brush my teeth with my kids so they see how long I brush.

another great tom’s of maine product is the unscented deodorant. i think a good way of getting kids to brush it to give them cute/fun toothbrushes… especially the type with cartoon characters and fun colors and shapes!
the all natural deodorant looks good:)sounds like a great product:) ty 4 the awesome giveaway and entry:)
my grandson’s heart the battery operated toothbrushes
We get our kids to brush by reminding them of “cavity monsters” that must be attacked and spit out.
I knew Tom’s had toothpaste and deodorant, but I didn’t know they had mouthwash. I’ll have to give it a try.
I would like to try the soap. I’ve never had an issue with my daughter wanting to brush her teeth. In fact, she wants to brush them too much. We started when she was very young cleaning her gums and it just became a good habit.

Natural Moisturizing Body Bar
*Thanks* for the giveaway!
i love the Whole Care Toothpaste in Spearmint, we encourage teeth brushing with those fun toothbrushes that have timers for the top and bottom teeth.
I didn’t know they had deodorants. We use a timer that shows a smiley face after 2 minutes

We have been using Tom’s deodorants for years. In my experience, providing a variety of fun toothbrushes and letting the child choose which (s)he will use gets the job done every time!
Subscriber.
Tom’s also has a Deodorant product that looks interesting. I find that the Timer Toothbrushes work great to encourage brushing for little ones!
I have found that getting my kids to brush, and brush longer, all depends on having fun toothbrushes and good tasting toothpaste.
I love that they are helping people in need!
I am a subscriber.
Tom’s offers dental floss. Thanks for the chance.
they have lavender deodorant!
They have Deodorant for sensitive skin.
My kids love using their special kid toothbrushes and watermelon or strawberry paste.
Gripit Floss Holders are another clever product line to keep your mouth healthy – especially if you don’t like putting your fingers into your mouth when flossing. You can see them in action at http://www.gripit.biz. Gripits come with their own floss supply that can be refilled from local grocery and drug stores. They last a lifetime and don’t clog landfills. I’ve been using one for 35 years.
I found that after trying the strawberry toothpaste my daughter loves it and now she enjoys brushing her teeth.
Love the natural deoderants that they make
Tom’s of Maine offers Whole Care Toothpaste in peppermint and spearmint. I use this myself and swear by it!
I love the idea of natural dedorants.
We do our night time brushing all together.
They make natural deodorants. It’s the only kind my son uses. Thanks for the giveaway.
Tom’s also has deodorant. A toothbrush with a timer makes brushing more fun because kids know when they are finished.
i like the natural deodorants thanks for the giveaway
I’ve used the Tom’s of Maine Fluoride Free Antiplaque Propolis & Myrrh Toothpaste (whew, that’s a mouthful) before and thought it was good.
I don’t really have a problem getting the kids to brush their teeth- they actually want to do it.
elkaye[at]gmail[dot]com
Thier natural dedorants looka interesting. My son is two and we have to really work at brushing his teeth, he’s quite feisty! My husband has to tickle him while I brush, it seems to work well
they also offer deoderant. I brush my teeth at the same time as my little boy and let him brush mine so I have a moment to brush his.
The toothpaste is great as is the deoderant. Tom’s products are really great and I would love, love, love to win this.
we try to make a game out of it too
The Moisturizing Body Wash looks great. I usually brush my sons teeth at night and my daughter brushes hers on her own. I always make sure they get there’s brushed before bed.
My kids love Silly Strawberry and if I brush their teeth for them they love it even more.
When its time to brush our teeth, I always tell my boys to try and brush all the sugar bugs away because the sugar bugs love to eat teeth. Even if they are really tired they never want to go to bed with sugar bugs. It has worked great for me! Love the deodorant, too! Thanks!
When I was really desperate, I would tell them that there were itsy bitsy teeny weeny bugs eating their teeth, and brushing would get rid of them. That worked most of the time; for a while lol
When my children were young, we would see who could brush their teeth the Slowest! lol it worked and I think they brushed more thoroughly!
Thanks
I’ve signed up via email!
Thanks
I would love to try the SLS-free, Anticavity, Dry Mouth Soother, with Fluoride toothpaste for dry mouths!
Thanks
When I have my grandchildren over we brush out teeth together and that seems to work most of the time.
natural dedorants is nice. i have them make a game out of it
we love there deodorant. To make the little ones brush there teeth we have a challenge where I and my children brush on teeth at the same time to see who’s will be cleaner
I linked to you!
I like to use Tom’s of Maine lavender deodorant. It is easy on my skin, unlike the other, more harsh deodorants on the market.
toms makes awesome products- natural deodorant is amazing and actually works..
I get my kids to brush their teeth by simply telling them if they want teeth when they are old go brush
Deodorant for sensitive skin.
We brush together. Anything together is fun.
