Side by Side Comparison of: Tom's of Maine vs Babyganics

Great toothpaste. My son who is sensitive and very selective to what he puts in his mouth has no complains about this toothpaste. I tried the blue gel colgate but it was too much for him. So I'm sticking to this for as along as he wants it.

Son loves the taste and it has helped get rid of the browning that started forming on his top teeth from his milk. I really did not want to use a tooth paste with fluoride, but I needed to prevent his teeth from rooting especially when i noticed that his upper front teeth started getting a little brown coating on them.

My son hated Colgate toothpaste, among others, because it left a nasty taste in his mouth, and was really picky with brushing his teeth many years ago. Since then, he's had the Strawberry Tom's toothpaste and never heard a complaint, only other when he has ran out!

This is the best value for this product I have seen anywhere!! It's basically like getting one entire tube free!My kid loves it and there are never any issues with brushing. He is cavity free and no qualms from the Dentist since switching to this brand a year ago.

Kids love it and no more blue, pink or other bubble gum, fruit paste for them. I love Tom's and the mild taste is great for my kids, who think regular adult mint toothpaste is too 'spicy'. I like the flavor and will use it too.

Only toothpaste my toddler will use. I'm fine with that, as it doesn't have any of the unnecessary toxic stuff other children's products have.I use very little as advised by my son's dentist, and one of these tubes lasts us a very long time.

My kids have been using this toothpaste for three to four years. I love the safe ingredients and my kids love the flavor. Since it's dye free, if my kids make a mess, it doesn't stain the counter. It's available through subscribe and save so it's even better!

Love Babyganics and this is the only toothpaste where my toddler son doesn't gag and pukes. Making brushing a much easier chore. The gel texture is much easier for him and the strawberry taste is pleasantly mild enough.

My 19 month old son is really starting to get into brushing his teeth and he loves the flavor of this toothpaste. He tries to suck it all off before I can even brush his teeth. And I love that it is fluoride free since most of it ends up being swallowed.

This is the only toothpaste I will buy for my kids when they're under 4 years old. There's too much chance they will swallow some toothpaste and I want to be sure they're not going to get sick. The Babyganics brand is safe and high quality. I like that there's no fluoride, and it's xylitol based which is what our pediatric dentist recommended because "xylitol is added to some chewing gums and other oral care products to prevent tooth decay and dry mouth." We have ordered both the strawberry and watermelon flavors. My daughter (now 3.5 years old) loves them both.

As a new mom I always worry about what my kids eat.And what produsts to use on them, Ive learned new words like BPA- free, GMO and etc. But after receiving this toothpaste I feel safe giving it to my babies to brush their teeth, its organic, safe to swallow, and my little ones LOVE brushing their four teeth now lol- they love the taste, so its a win/win ;))) Try it- you wont regret it.

I use a fluoride rinse a couple times a week, but for general brushing I use this toothpaste. A few studies have come out recently saying that toothpaste isn't even necessary outside of its ability to freshen your breath. A simple fluoride rinse and a wet toothbrush is really all that you need.I like this toothpaste because it is free of sodium laurel sulfate, which is an abrasive that eats away at the tissue lining of the mouth. For me that's bad because I have suffered from canker sores most of my life, or did until I switched to this toothpaste and altered my diet.

Our daughter loves this toothpaste, almost too much. She's 3 and knows not to swallow it, but the nice taste makes her more likely to keep asking for more even after a good brush (not a bad problem, but still).The tube is easy to squeeze, but the top is a bit hard for little hands to open.

I really like this toothpaste but I wish the top/cap was a little more 'user/child friendly'.

It is the only toothpaste my 5 yr old will use. Kinda spendy for toothpaste in my opinion

My daughter loves this toothpaste and she is VERY picky about toothpaste flavor. It makes me feel better knowing that it is natural and I can prounounce the ingredients.

The flavor is ok. My 2 year old didn't like it at first but he likes it now. It's probably because he was used to the super phony toothpaste he was using. This is a good price for the toms toothpaste. The ingredients are minimal and it seems to do the job. I use Toms as well and I have always enjoyed the products.

I like this product for my daughter. It's organic, low in sugar, and doesn't have a lot of the yuckiness found in a lot of kids toothpaste. We made the switch cold turkey.Of course, my daughter misses her barbie bubble gum sweet sweet candy toothpaste. She complains that she wants the old toothpaste back. But she doesn't outright refuse this when we tell her "nope, we have new big girl toothpaste now".

We've been using this toothpaste since my daughter was about 2 years old and she's almost 5 years old. This is the only toothpaste she will use. It has a very mild flavor, and its safe to swallow. My daughter does not like mint flavors. I tried using it too just to see what it was like, and it seemed to get my teeth clean. Its a clear gel that is very runny so we only use a tiny amount on her toothbrush. Sometimes, she will try to do it herself and the whole thing will squish out of the tube everywhere so it requires adult supervision. One tube lasts a very long time. If it weren't for the runny gel consistency I would have given this toothpaste 5 stars.

The taste is a little off, my baby didn''t like it but the quality is ok

Little one likes the flavor.

Decent flavor. My son's dentist never had any complaints. I did find it a little hard to rinse from the toothbrush. But overall, we did like it better than other baby toothpastes.

Toddler liked it at first but quickly lost interest in the flavor and am now stuck with a massive quantity of the stuff. I love the the cap doesn't post a choking hazzard but it dispenses a high volume of toothpaste quickly.

I wanted fluoride free toothpaste for my 13 month old. Well he has tasted regular toothpaste and now I give him babyganics. I would say he does'nt like the taste of it as he just just keeps for few seconds and throws the brush away. I am gonna try for a couple of weeks and hopefully he will use it.

This stuff is milder than my adult mint toothpaste. My 6-year-old whines that it is too minty. My response to him, "We have SIX tubes of MILD mint toothpaste. Try using less." He's fine, BTW.

My daughter love this toothpaste, but I feel like it doesn't cleanse very well. We still have to stick with this one for now.

This is supposed to be really good tooth paste, but the kids don't like it. Two of them hate the taste and the texture, the other two don't care as much, but still prefer Colgate Strawberry for kids or my own Colgate/Crest toothpaste.

Great stuff without fluoride... bought this version accidentally, but our 4 yr old loves the strawberry taste. Next time will definitely buy withOUT fluoride

I have two children 6 and 4. They usually use Toms strawberry toothpaste but I bought this orange-mango flavor for something new. The 6 year-old likes it okay but the 4 year-old flat out hates it. It's a struggle every night/morning since. I tried it and have to say I'm not a fan either. If you have tried and like this flavor it is a great value for 3 tubes but we'll be sticking with the strawberry from now on.

Update: I love this toothpaste but it has made me overly sensitive to gagging while I brush my teeth. At first I thought it was my toothbrush so I've tried several different kinds, but I finally switched toothpastes and I have no more issues.I won't use it again but I will buy other toms products, and I will gave my remaining tubes to my sister...she loves it.It's kind of strange at first, not very foamy, but I like it, and I love the flavor.

I like Babyganics, but this toothpaste left swollen red welts everywhere it touched around my child's mouth. The toothpaste does have a toddler-friendly flavor and texture though.

We love babyganics products so we thought we would try this fluoride free toothpaste. Sad to say my son hates it made him scream and cry because he said it was gross. We switched to jack n' Jill natural. He loves the strawberry and blueberry toothpaste.

Ok flavor, and does a decent job in keeping teeth clean but better than something with Flouride that could be incredibly harmful to a child. It's definitely not organic, so don't invest if that is what you are buying for.

My toddler doesn't like this kind as much as other brands. Too bad we bought 2 tubes. It is quite runny as well. Drips off of the toothbrush sometimes before he gets it in his mouth.

Toothpaste is very thin, not paste like at all. My 18 months old not too picky on toothpaste, it is also because there isn't much options out there for toothpaste for under 2 years old.

The toothpaste is very runny and without even squeezing the tube the toothpaste just pours out onto the toothbrush. Difficult to use only a small amount at a time. Don't leave any on the toothbrush (in case kid forgets to rinse it off) because it will harden the bristles. Weird sweet flavor.

Both of my kids tried the citrus and didn't like it one bit. Now I have to try to get my neighbor to take it.

The taste is exactly what it is Strawberries....my husband and I tried it before we made the kids try it ages 6 & 4 and we liked the taste but our mouths didn't feel clean. Our kids hated the taste and refused I mean refused to use it.

Hard to believe this is sold as toothpaste for kids. It's a really nasty looking gray with the barest pink tinge, and the flavor exactly matches the appearance. It's bland, a bit chalky, and the strawberry flavor is all but non-existent. Very disappointed with this product.

I got this knowing it's better for my kids to use this toothpaste but all three of them have told me they don't like it. I don't plan on getting it again but I still have my kids using it and it's probably growing on them a bit. I don't hear them complain but they also don't praise it yet either.

Unfortunately my kids didn't like the taste of this toothpaste at all, and I have to agree with them, it doesn't taste very good. It's nice that it's all natural but if I can't get them to put the brush in their mouth, it doesn't really help their teeth much. Be sure to buy a small tube and let your kids try it before you commit to a three pack!

I purchased "Strawberry" flavor toothpaste after buying and loving Tom's of Maine "Orange mango". I expected that this flavor will be as true to its name in taste as Orange mango was to its. However, this is not so. This toothpaste has a strange flavor. After brushing my son's mouth is smelly and unpleasant, not as orange mango!I have to say that I liked Orange Mango more in both respects of flavor and foaming. I will not use the three tubes of Strawberry I bought and I will not be buying this flavor again.

Nice but very liquidity, not gel like. Opening tube this tooth paste starts to pour out. The kids can not apply this by themselves

This left rashes and welts on my sons face where it touched. We normally love babyganics, and he eats strawberries all the time so i know its not a reaction to that--- this was definitely not a go for our family

The toothpaste is very runny and it's impossible to control the amount you put on the brush. Every time I try to use it an excess amount comes out running all over the brush and the cap. After a few weeks I noticed mold forming on the cap. I suggest that if you are intent on using this product then refrigerate it. I bought the two pack and am just going to dump it and buy something else.

I like that these are larger tubes of fluoride free toothpaste. This stuff Is thick, does not foam and if your not careful to wash ALL of it off the tooth brush, the tooth brush WILL be rock hard so, make sure you feel the bristles before sticking the brush in your kids mouth, tooth brush may be hard and uncomfortable.

I've liked other products from Babyganics, and am surprised by this one.I ordered it without reading the ingredients (because they are not listed) and am disappointed that stevia is added to the toothpaste. If you are trying to avoid hooking your kid on sweet toothpaste, this is not your toothpaste. I've tried it (as well as my 3 year old, who's been happily using it for several months) and it's SO sweet.

The first bottle we used I would give it 5 stars, tasted great and my kid loved itSecond bottle didn't use because there was black mold floating inside. I squirted the whole thing out in my sink and it was just a black moldy mess.

It leaves a grease feel in your mouth. The worst toothpaste ever. I still have two left. I don't know what to do with it. Maybe use it as a cleaner.

Terrible bitter taste. I tried multiple tubes and lot #s they were all gross.

Tastes a little like vomit

While the ingredients may be a big benefit, attempting to get my child to brush with this toothpaste was a huge challenge. Finally threw all three bottles away and bought a brand that tasted better.

We got the 3 pack of orange mango, and it tastes vile. My toddler cries real tears when I make him brush with this stuff. I figured I'd just use it myself since we got so much of it, but even I can't tolerate it.

Teeth do not feel clean at all after brushing according to my kids. I tried it and had the same result. Doesn't really taste good either.

My kids both started getting upset about brushing their teeth as soon as we bought this. They had previously been eager participants. I wish I had known it had stevia in it before buying. Gross. I bought the Oral B that they like and I'm going to throw or give this stuff away. A $10 loss is better than paying for cavities because my kids can't stand the toothpaste. I would absolutely not recommend this.

The liquid tends to thin out. I tried shaking it, no change. It was kept in a cool dry bathroom, that wasn't used for showering either so it's not like the steam softened it.

Our baby developed a rash on her face almost immediately after using the toothpaste. It would been nice to have some form of warning in Amazon's product page to warn parents of the potential issue.

Used this on my twins. One of my girls developed a bad rash around her mouth right after using this.

Caused significance allergic reactions to both our babies. Got large reddish blotches on their faces after using this product.

toothpaste is too runny..
