I’ve been using the Dr. Nicks White & Healthy products for a few weeks now and I don’t see a difference (in terms of whiteness), but at least I know I’m not filling my mouth with a bunch of chemicals.
I don’t want to bore you with all the details of the ingredients, however, some important facts are that Dr. Nicks products do not contain alcohol, artificial colors, sweeteners, sodium laurel sulphate, or fluoride. The natural mint oil flavors all of Dr. Nicks products.
I enjoy the toothpaste, actually, it foams well and leaves my mouth fresh, but the mouthwash actually leaves my mouth dry. I need to rinse with water for almost a minute after using the mouthwash in an effort to rid my mouth of the bad taste. I really like the breath spray and the tongue scraper, they are fun and work well.
If I had to choose between Tom’s of Maine and Dr. Nicks, I would pick Tom’s. Dr. Nicks are not all natural/organic, nor do they claim to be but it is at least better than those chock-full-of-chemical companies.

I wouldn't choose Tom's of Maine, as they were bought by Colgate a while back. I can't support a company that tests on animals.
I highly suggest not supporting Tom's of Maine anymore. I did used to love their products.
Haha, shouldn’t you be chagnirg for that kind of knowledge?!
Wow, Billy, thanks for the heads up. I did not know that Tom's was bought out. Thanks for the news!
Yup, sadly they were bought out by an awful company.
