FAQs
Is this toothpaste safe if my pet swallows it?
Yes, the formula is specifically designed to be safe for pets to swallow and requires no rinsing.
How often should I brush my pet's teeth?
For maximum effectiveness in preventing plaque buildup, it is recommended to brush your pet's teeth daily.
Can I use human toothpaste instead?
No, you should never use human toothpaste as it often contains fluoride and xylitol, which are toxic to cats and dogs.
Does the poultry flavour cause allergic reactions?
The flavour is generally well-tolerated, but always consult your veterinarian if your pet has specific known food allergies.
Will this remove existing tartar?
The paste is designed to remove soft plaque; hard tartar (calculus) usually requires professional cleaning by a veterinarian.
Troubleshooting
Pet resists the toothbrush
Start by rubbing the paste onto their teeth with your finger first to build trust before introducing the brush.
Paste appears too thick or difficult to squeeze
Ensure the tube is stored at room temperature; if cold, warm it slightly in your hand before use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin, introduce the toothpaste to your pet by letting them lick a small amount from your finger to associate the taste with a positive reward. Use a veterinary-approved toothbrush or a soft finger brush to apply the paste to the teeth and gums. No rinsing is necessary post-application. Store the tube in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the enzymes. Ensure the cap is tightly closed after each use to prevent the paste from drying out.
