Is the tooth cleanser really that powerful? A review tells you

Many poop shovelers have just begun to pay attention to the health of their dogs. After all, only if they have good teeth, they can eat them well and their bodies can be stronger. Therefore, there is always a product related to dog dental care, which is the teeth cleaning stick.

What kind of existence is this tooth cleanser? It is called taking into account the dog's urge to grind teeth, and it can also exceed teeth cleaning and prevent oral odor and urinary stones. The most important thing is that it is a refreshing snack for dogs, which ultimately deals with the difficulty of dogs not wanting to rinse their teeth. This is really good for their teeth while eating. Such a perfect thing is jealous. The veterinarian Xiao Ming is envious and jealous.

But today, veterinarian Xiao Ming wants to evaluate whether this simplistic tooth cleanser does have the kind of function it often says? OK, don’t say much, just put the product on! We have chosen any 2 well-known brands of teeth cleaners.

Step 1 [Look at it]

First look at the packaging of the teething stick. The packaging separately looks more sanitary and convenient, and there is no need to worry about mold.

Generally, these teeth cleaners are all designed to look like strips. The teeth cleaners must be a stick first, which is to better integrate the dog's mouth shape and let them chew with their two front paws.

But in order to make the styling of the product more attractive, or to decisively say it to attract the shoveling owner, some shops will also design the teething sticks into bone designs, soft-bristled toothbrush designs, and... I don't know what concepts I want to express.

In fact, no matter how serious the shape and design of this product are, its value is used for dogs to chew. Therefore, for dogs themselves, appearance is not the key, and taste and taste are what they can feel.

Second step [Touch]

We raise the teeth cleansing stick and feel it first. The color looks quite hard and has a certain degree of ductility. If you open the packaging bag, you can come to your face. It is quite thick and heavy. The dog's nose is so smart, of course it can't resist this thing, and there is a certain suspicion of fish lure. Although the shapes and designs of these two teething sticks are different, their length and short design are around 10cm, unless it is a dog that does not play by the routine like Erha. For most dogs, it takes about 3-4 minutes to finish gnawing this one. Naturally, the more complex the design, the longer the dog will take, and it seems that you can suddenly figure out the practical significance of this strange design teething stick?

I don't know how long you will brush your teeth when you usually rinse. In short, veterinarian Xiao Ming thinks that it takes at least 2 minutes to brush your teeth. Therefore, this tooth cleaning stick can make your dog chew for more than ten minutes, which can be considered as having a certain practical effect of cleaning teeth. The plaque and tartar attached to the surface of the teeth are taken by swallowing.

So what if you have feelings?

As the saying goes, having inside and having face is considered really good. From the outside, this tooth cleanser seems to be really like that. Let's discuss their ingredient testing.

First of all, the packaging of these two teeth cleaners is listed in detail in terms of ingredients, which contains raw materials and preservatives.

Veterinary Xiao Ming guessed that many shovelers were as confused as they saw this kind of unconventional noun. It was okay. First, veterinary Xiao Ming told you that this preservative and raw materials would be eaten if you gave you gallbladder, and of course everything would be normal after the dog was eaten.

In which sodium hexametaphosphate is a ingredient obtained from pure natural minerals and is a chemical that has a dominant effect on removing tartar, which will indeed reduce the risk of tartar in dogs. Which of the above is also added with coconut oil, which has a dominant effect on promoting the digestive and absorption of the dog's gastrointestinal tract, and does not add cereals. It can be taken with peace of mind for dogs with skin allergies.

The raw materials for the teeth cleansing stick below show that it is made with chicken breast. You can also consider the dog's expectations for meat. Broccoli is used for coloring and environmental protection, methylcellulose is used to assist dogs in digestion and absorption, and dry mint is used to eliminate bad breath. The basics are still a safe ingredient. You can also provide dogs with some nutritional ingredients.

Feedback

1. Veterinarian Xiao Ming combined the application experiences of many shovelers and found that at first, everyone expressed that dogs like this kind of teeth cleaning stick, but in fact, teeth cleaning sticks are classified into pet snacks. As for snacks, there are big principles that are unpalatable and disliked everywhere. Most shovelers seem to care more about how much dogs love to eat and whether they eat delicious food. They don’t care so much about their actual teeth cleaning effects, which means that they are “cleaning” in their psychological state.

2. Dogs who have the habit of taking tooth cleansing sticks on time have a much better problem of oral odor and their teeth are relatively cleaner, but the actual cleaning effect and persistence in using soft-bristled toothbrush and whitening toothpaste are still slightly weaker than dogs.

3. Some dogs suffer from severe constipation and are harmful to digestion and absorption after eating the stick.

For the left and right points, veterinarian Xiao Ming summarized his own experience.

Tooth cleansing sticks in short mean a dog snack that contains tooth cleaning function, and cannot be used as a key special tool for cleaning teeth. If you describe a brand image, it is like chewing two pieces of bubble gum after a meal. Can you chew bubble gum and not rinse your teeth after chewing bubble gum?

Although the teeth cleaning stick can have a certain cleaning effect, it cannot ensure that every corner of the dog's teeth is cleaned. There are also people who rinse their teeth in the morning, noon and evening. The people who pay attention to it are to rinse their mouths and clean them after eating. Do you have any concerns about the frequency and time points of taking teeth cleaning sticks?

I don't know if you have noticed it. In short, the brand of tooth stick packaging bags that the dogs should pay attention to filling in moisture after taking it, and it is also a relative suggestion for the amount of use. If you treat this thing as a snack to feed your dog, it will of course cause certain harm to the dog's physical and mental health.

Although we people have always wanted to be able to free up some lazy products to make food, clothing, housing and transportation easier, we should not be lazy about some things and problems. Therefore, whether you can do this completely depends on the teeth cleaning stick and want your dog to have healthy teeth, and you still have to persevere in the actual effect of rinsing teeth is better!
