I gave it 5 stars because Chewys products are always great. This came very highly recommended by a dental Vet. Unfortunately our beautiful baby passed with these items in route. I now have two bottles I’m looking at. Thank you Chewy as always it does appear to be a quality product.

After brushing my adult cat's teeth daily, 4-6 times a week I soak several drops into a small piece of cotton to wipe his gums, having him bite into the cotton with his back teeth. In my two years of having him, his Vet has given him an A+ in oral hygiene for the second year in a row, saving him from having him go under with anesthesia for professional teeth cleanings.

Easy to use

My dog is not a big fan of the taste, but it is really easy to quickly squirt along her gum line. Cleared up and infected tooth in 3 days.

Oral rinse

It does what it supposed to, just wish there was an unflavored version as my cat seems to hate the mint flavor.

Great for dental hygiene

I love adding this to my pets dental routine. After brushing their teeth I rinse with dentahex to add more protection and fresh smell.

Couple of shots a week

give your kidz a two to three squirts a week and their nasty breath becomes like a puppy. You may have to chase them down. LOL. it's worth it.

My dogs absolutely hate this, but it works really well! I put some on a gauze pad and apply to their teeth and gums after brushing. I use a couple times a week, and the gingivitis-red gums around teeth has completely resolved! Even my vet noticed that their teeth and gums look good!

Dog hates the taste

It seems like it might work well but my dog Echo HATES the taste. But it quickly helps her poo eating breath recover. She is special needs who gets a very dry mouth

It seems like it might work well but my dog Echo HATES the taste. But it quickly helps her poo eating breath recover. She is special needs who gets a very dry mouth so plaque builds quickly so I will continue to use it a couple times a week but teeth brushing is also hated by her
