We made our mark making natural products like toothpaste and deodorant. But what is most important to us? Working to make positive change by doing good. This has been our focus for over 50 years, and for the next 50, we’re challenging ourselves to help solve some of the world’s biggest social and environmental problems through our products, our policies, and our partnerships. We make natural products that really work – including toothpaste,
deodorant, mouthwash, bar soap, body wash, dental floss, and toothbrushes – by combining naturally derived ingredients and scientific know-how. Most Tom's of Maine products are vegan, kosher, halal-certified and gluten-free. As a Certified B Corporation, we are held to the highest social and environmental standards, and we donate 10% of our profits to nonprofits addressing issues facing our health, our environment, and our kids.

SmartMouth Oral Health Laboratories (Triumph Pharmaceuticals Inc.), makers of the SmartMouth brand's line of products, was established in the mid-1990s, in St. Louis, Missouri. Its founder, Dr. Marvin Cohen, recognized a need for real solutions to a real problem: bad breath. As Chairman and Founder of Triumph Pharmaceuticals, Dr. Cohen was committed to the education and resolution of bad breath. With the distinction of being a leading authority on the etiology, diagnosis and treatment of halitosis, Dr. Cohen brought his years of extensive research and studies into the development of the SmartMouth products. He published 13 research projects and lectured extensively in the United States, Canada and Europe. Most notably, he is the author of the bad breath (halitosis) section of the Encyclopedia Britannica, 1998 Medical Edition.
Dr. Marvin Cohen's vast knowledge of the subject led to an understanding of why most fresh breath products don't work beyond an hour: they only provide temporary solutions, as they ignore the underlying cause of bad breath. No other product is able to truly provide fresh breath as long, as only SmartMouth works to eliminate and prevent sulfur gases (bad breath) from forming. SmartMouth's revolutionary and patented zinc ion technology was invented by Dr. Israel Kleinberg, Chairman of Oral Biology and Pathology, at the State University of New York, Stony Brook. With this groundbreaking technology, Triumph Pharmaceuticals has worked to educate the world about this truly amazing breakthrough, providing all day fresh breath.
