Propolis is a mixture of tree resins and pollen made by bees, while myrrh is a plant resin that's been used in toothpastes since the time of the ancient Egyptians. Tom and Kate Chappell started adding them to toothpaste over 30 years ago, and people have been happily using our Propolis & Myrrh toothpastes ever since!
Fluoride-free formula: Some people do not want fluoride in their toothpaste. We produce this toothpaste without fluoride because we respect our customers' diverse needs and interests.
What's inside that matters™
We've been making safe and effective natural personal care products for you and your family since 1970! It all started when Tom and Kate Chappell moved to Maine. They couldn't find natural products for their children that supported their healthy lifestyle, so they made their own. This passion and pioneering spirit lives on at Tom's of Maine today. Our Stewardship Model, with standards for natural, sustainable, and responsible, guides every decision we make about our ingredients, processing, and packaging.
What makes a product natural and good? At Tom's it includes how we make it.
