Petsmile Professional Pet Toothpaste - Cat & Dog Toothpaste for Plaque, Tartar, & Bad Breath - VOHC Accepted Non Enzymatic Dental Care for Cat & Dog Teeth Cleaning (London Broil, 4.5 Oz)

This has got to be the best dog tooth paste I have used for my 2 Maltese. Toy breeds are notoriously known to be sensitive to bad dental hygiene and through forgetting to brush their teeth daily with (other brand stuff) they ended up getting thick layers of tartar. This toothpaste was a miracle, and while it doesn't outright make the tartar fall off, what it does is weakens the bond to the tooth/teeth which you can easily and effortlessly pry off with a stainless steel dental pick (the kind your dentist uses on you). We've tried using the dental pick when we used other brand toothpastes (Virbac CET, Sentry Petrodex) but it's like chipping off cement. With Petsmile toothpaste, you only need make sure it makes surface contact, no abrasive brushing required.The active ingredient is Calprox which is used in whitening toothpastes for humans as well (coincidentally, I tried their people version Supersmile and it whitens my teeth several shades after just 1 week, to which Crest Whitening 90% did nothing for over 5 years). Essentially it helps re-mineralize teeth and is antimicrobial in nature. If you leave it out, especially the people version, you will notice how it calcifies.I can't vouch for big dogs but you can recover your small breed's teeth even with bad tartar to pristine white with consistent brushing and careful use of a dental pick (only if they have tartar, after that just maintenance with brushing). All this without having to rely on a VET and pay VET bills. Be willing to put in a little effort and your furry family members will have improved quality of life again!

I have been using this paste daily on my two large senior dogs for about 9 months and am on my 5th tube. After the first week of use the dog breath odor was gone from both dogs. After 9 months of use most but not all staining is gone and the teeth are white. The instructions say to wipe the paste on the dogs teeth with an applicator but I use a soft adult toothbrush. The dogs like the taste and look forward to having their teeth brushed with this paste. Brushing two dogs teeth daily a tube of paste lasts about 6 weeks. Although the cost of this paste is high, it is worth the money because it works well. At my last vet visit the veterinarian was very impressed by the condition of my dogs teeth and gums.The only down side of this paste besides cost is that the ingredients tend to separate after sitting for a while, especially a new tube of paste. To remedy this, before each use I shake the tube vigorously and kneed until the ingredients are mixed. I also found that if you cut open the bottom of the tube when you think the tube is empty you will find there are several more brushings worth of paste stuck to the inside of the tube.

As I read the reviews this product seem to be the best choice for my dogs teeth and so far it’s working great. her breath is much better and it’s only been a week. My dog is two years old but she gets plaque buildup. I didn’t want anything that could harm her chemical wise and this one seem to be a really good choice and I bought dog toothbrushes that are soft and have two different sides to them and they work great.

I thought I would try this after reading the reviews (and leaving the other brand behind by accident when visiting elsewhere.)Soooo glad I did! This stuff is awesome!!! There was a HuGe difference after just 3 days use!Now, I WAS squirting his gum line with peroxide, then brushing his teeth, then using some nasty green tartar control liq/gel-ish product that he hated (also from Amazon. ) I managedbto do this about 5 days per week. Results: not impressive. 😒With this Petsmile, I just smear a pea-size amount at the teeth on each side, & that's it. Already there is an obvious improvement, in less than a week. I will use this forever!It has a good paste consistency. Is London Broil flavor. My Cavalier does not love it, but that's ok. At least he doesn't despise it like the green too-liquidy stuff.ThAnK you for making something that works!

This toothpaste is expensive but it works! I was brushing my dog's teeth daily with a toothpaste from the local pet store, but she was still having dental issues and the vet said she would probably need a cleaning in the next 6 months. PetSmile toothpaste is the only toothpaste on the Veterinary Oral Health Council accepted products list. I decided to try it - and it works. I brush the same way, with the same toothbrush, and my fur baby's teeth are much improved. The vet no longer mentions cleanings during her checkups and he says her teeth and gums look good. I even told him about the toothpaste and he now carries it in his practice.
