Clinically Tested Dental Support

Dental Care for dogs and cats provides effortless daily dental support with no brushing required. Simply add a scoop of dental powder to your pet's meal twice a day, and give a tasty dental chew or bite, to banish bad breath and see the plaque melt away.

Help Your Pet Stay Play-Ready

Dental Care products work by supporting healthy mouths in five ways: reducing harmful bacteria, disrupting new plaque formation, helping penetrate and oxidize existing plaque, supporting gum health and strength, and stopping the source of bad breath.

Find a Flavor & Format Your Pet Will Love

Dental Care products come in two easy-to-use formats: powder and chews. The powder is easy to disguise in foods and treats, while the sticks and bites are dual-action dental chews with a hard, crunchy outer layer and a softer, satisfying inner layer.

Science-Backed Ingredients

VetriScience Dental Care powder, chews, and bites are made with science-backed ingredients like zeolites and probiotics to fight plaque and zinc, cranberry, and taurine to support gum tissue health. Probiotics help freshen breath, too.

How is this powder different from the dental treats by this same brand and for the same thing?

Answer by NightHawkNov 11, 2021
This product is to designed to be sprinkled onto food for the pet to ingest. It is designed to break down plaque with natural zeolites and unique minerals that help prevent plaque formation. Dental treats use the mechanical action of chewing to scrape off plaque before it hardens.

what is the best product to control, eliminate tooth tartar and plaque


How long would the 4.2 oz bottle last for a 47 lb dog for the two times a day it’s recommended?


How does this work? Is it through ingestion or does the powder have to have contact with the teeth?

The bottle does not explain clearly how to administer the product in the most effective way - food? Water? Capsule? Dry? I have a cat with feew teeth and thought this may help with "gum" care. I could not find a way to administer it she would like. I see they flavored it. I encourage companies to stop flavoring products. A flavor that works for one cat most likely sux for many others.

My rescue had his teeth cleaned before I adopted him so I was looking for a way to keep them clean. I did some research and landed on this product. It's easy to add to his food twice a day. So far I've only seen clean white teeth. The proof will be in a year or so to see how they look. To me it's worth it to use prevention and not have to sleep a dog to get his teeth cleaned. And we all know how trying to brush a dogs teeth is not very effective. This is an easy alternative. The science said this will work!

Used it on 2 cats, both lived to be 20 and they both had their teeth when they passed. On had to have a tooth removed when she was young and that is when my vet told me to use this stuff. I did not brush their teeth or pay for dental cleaning. Presently using it on my Lovey Kitty.

Breath definitely improves

My pet seems to enjoy the smell and flavor, has had NO diarrhea or other side affects and her breath is better and noticeable improvement in her tartar buildup

My pet seems to enjoy the smell and flavor, has had NO diarrhea or other side affects and her breath is better and noticeable improvement in her tartar buildup. My pet isn’t cooperative with tooth brushing anymore and not healthy enough for anesthesia and teeth cleaning. I’ve tried other things but this is best by far

My vet recommended this powder to me for my cat's oral health. At the moment, I'm feeding the cat 1/8th tsp over her wet food and she seems to be eating it with no problem. She's not a very picky eater though. It's still too early to tell if it's working, but fingers crossed!

My girls teeth and breath are way nicer since starting this. However the formula tends to clump into balls and be hard to get out. If it was a larger dog then probably wouldn’t matter as much. The bottle would be used faster and not necessarily pack down so much. I am probably end up using more than I should because I get tired of whacking the container or finding something to stir with to break it all up. I will keep using it though as her teeth are so much better!

I think my dogs breath is better and teeth healthier. Only downside is that now all the dogs race to eat each other's "parmesan" and they dont like to eat their food if their fancy topping isnt there. Lol. There are worse things. Five stars because its fun telling my dogs I put parmesan on their food when really its something for their teeth.

My dog is 17 years old now, and it's hard to brush his teeth. I sprinkle this on his food once daily and so far so good. His breath isn't as bad as before. Also, no tummy issues. Hope this keeps up in the long run.

I read the reviews and decided based upon them. I thought for sure this would be better that the last brand I used. But Titan's breath is horrendous. With the last brand, it actually seemed better. Now I'm stuck with this stuff for a while.

At my dog’S annual check up with the veterinarian, as soon as she looked in her mouth at her teeth, she said, “oh, she must be on Perio!” See how white her teeth are? A lot less tarter than last year.
