While many consumers prefer natural products for themselves and the planet, they remain skeptical about their effectiveness—especially when it comes to whitening toothpaste. Tom’s of Maine aimed to shift this misconception and prove that nature has the power to whiten teeth effectively.
Nature is full of incredible phenomena that surprise us, from naturally pink lakes to salmon that swim upstream. If nature is capable of all that, why wouldn’t it also be capable of whitening teeth?
VML partnered with Tom’s of Maine to create “Never Underestimate Nature,” a campaign that flips conventional thinking on its head. Through stunning visuals and thought-provoking storytelling, the campaign highlights the unbelievable power of nature and how Tom’s of Maine WHITEN+ toothpaste delivers equally as unbelievable results.
