Vet Q & AWhat's the best way to clean my dog's teeth and remove stuck food?
Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. I would recommend using CET enzymatic toothpaste, which you can find online or at your local pet store. I would recommend buying a rubber bristled finger brush to apply the toothpaste to the teeth. You can also try Oravet chews, which contain Delmopinol, an ingredient used to slow or prevent the formation of plaque. Oravet is typically only available at the vet clinic so you would have to go to a clinic to buy these chews. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
