Teeth cleaning and plaque removal?

My golden retriever has some plaque and I want to clean his teeth for him. He will not tolerate me putting my fingers/toothbrush in there. Any suggestions on how to do it, or are there any dog bones that really truly clean dogs teeth?

Get a good quality rope toy...the ones that appear to be twisted string tied in a knot. Soak it in unsalted broth. Dry it in a very slow oven. she will try to chew all the falovor out of that, and it works as dental floss to keep her teeth clean, and her breath fresh.


If she grows tired, (couple of months)as the flavor is gone, just wash by hand, and re-soak

Reply:I know most vets will clean teeth of animals for around $40. If you have the extra cash I would let them handle it!
Reply:You can go to your vet, they%26#039;ll put your dog to sleep and clean his teeth and probably his ears too. I do this to my dogs. Another thing is to buy a doggie mouthwash that you mix with his water.
Reply:Our vet gave us some rinse to add to the dogs water that supposedly helps keep teeth clean. It%26#039;s called Breathalyser. It says it%26#039;s for fresh breath and no brushing.
Reply:Hills Science Diet food has an oral care type. I use that for my girl, she has really bad breath and it cleans her teeth. More expensive than the usual supermarket stuff, but really does the job. I buy it from the vet, but thats in Oz.
Reply:Take him to the vet and have them professionally cleaned. Then you can utilize some of the suggestions here to keep them cleaner.
Reply:Buy him/her Denta.......chewable bones which help dog to keep their teeth clean.........Try!
Reply:Some plaque is good for them and prevents tooth damage and chipping of enamel so let nature take it%26#039;s course.


Use the bones for bad breath, and dont worry about plaque.


This is a big lie to get people to buy plaque removers and go to the dentist twice a year when you only really need it once a year or two. Milking you for money honey.
Reply:try those beef flavored toothpaste, he might like it. if he is not used for the toothbrush since he was a puppy, it might be best to let the vet do it.





there are also bones, you can buy in the pet store for removing plaque. there are toys too.
