I think most pet stores carry some type of product, but I've usually gotten them on amazon and they've lasted me many months at a time :). Here are links to some I've used and had good luck with:
Oxyfresh Pet
Nylabone Advanced Tarter Remover
Tropiclean Fresh Breath Plaque Remover
Tropiclean also makes this foaming spray which I've also had good luck with in the past. It's messy and the dogs don't like it, but it's just a second or two of annoyance for both of you, rather than trying to brush. Not saying it's as good as brushing, but it's certainly better than nothing!
Yes, any soft bristled toothbrush. He’s gotten so used to it I just get a package of kids toothbrushes because I replace it every month.
This was the first toothbrush I started him with. I left it out all the time and he played with it like it was a toy. I was trying to get my point across to him that this is really fun. Whenever he would come up to me for pets I would play with his lips and touch his teeth. I wanted him to put together petting and having his mouth touched so it’s a positive experience. I really like the CET brand toothpaste, the chicken flavor, my cat is allergic to fish. It has enzymes so just getting some in their mouth helps break up the plaque. This process of getting them used to stuff is very slow and can take a couple weeks.
Once you feel comfortable handling them and they think toothbrushes are fun toys and treats start with the canines or an easy to reach tooth. Even a few seconds a day is better than nothing. I try to pick a time of day I notice that he is just chilling in his bed so he is calm. I put out some treats so he has something to focus on and he gets to eat them when I’m done. I squish his hips between my elbow and my side so he doesn’t feel the need to scoot back. If your cat is older be careful of her neck and back not to press down on them. I go in from the side under his whiskers and start with his front teeth. To get his molars I turn the handle around so it’s kind of opposite how you would brush your own teeth. I don’t want him to feel like I’m shoving something in his mouth. I’m gently sneaking in. If you feel like she’s getting stressed it’s ok to take a step back and play with toothbrushes, add toothpaste to a treat, or put some toothpaste on your finger and let her lick it off. Try not to get discouraged, anything you do will help. I also use a water additive and he loves greenies feline dental treats.
My cat doesn’t love his teeth being brushed but he tolerates it and then he goes back to sleep. I am weirdly passionate about brushing cats’ teeth so feel free to contact me if you want to. I think it’s a great way to bond and build trust.
What about supplements like PlaqueOff or Oxyfresh? Do you think they help at all?
