Executive Summary
TOM'S OF MAINE NON-ANIMAL ANTICARIES TEST EVIDENCE "AMPLE" to prove fluoride bioavailability, the company argued in an Aug. 26 letter to FDA drafted by Washington, D.C.-based law firm Buc & Beardsley. Addressing issues raised by FDA in telephone conversations regarding Tom's February petition proposing alternate test methods, the letter asserts that "FDA has ample evidence from which to conclude that the results of Tom's intraoral test provide equivalent assurance of fluoride bioavailability in lieu of animal caries testing."
