Nylabone Advanced Oral Care Cat Dental Kit Original (3 Count)

The Nylabone dental kit includes a tube of toothpaste, a regular toothbrush, and a finger toothbrush. I purchased the puppy-sized one because my dog, though an adult, is fairly small, only 20 lbs. The size fits him well. If you have a smaller dog, I'd recommend the puppy kit. If you have a larger dog, the adult kit is the way to go. My dog likes the taste of the toothpaste, so he won't fight me in that regard. He actually licks it right off of my fingers if I let him. However, it's a bit difficult to brush his teeth with the regular toothbrush. Since I haven't had him since he was a puppy, he didn't get an early start to tooth-brushing so he tends to struggle with me. In times when he's struggling, using the regular toothbrush is hard since it doesn't offer as much precise control. On the other hand, it's significantly easier to brush his teeth with the finger toothbrush. I can just do a few quick swipes and be done. I recommend you start with the finger toothbrush, especially if you have a squirmy dog. A lot of dog owners hesitate, asking if they really need to brush their dogs' teeth. You don't have to brush them every day; even just once a week can make a huge difference in your dog's dental health. This kit + dental chews = no stinky dog breath + happy healthy doggy :)

As expected from the ad. Haven't convinced my cats to let me brush their teeth yet so I can't say if this is a better or worse toothbrush than others. They love the finger thing rubbed all over their faces, which is a good first step. I was worried it would have a rubber stink but it is odorless. Maybe I will update this once we get to the toothbrush & paste. Update: well, after a few more weeks, they still won't let me get more than a couple quick swipes to their teeth. They adore having their faces brushed though! Our cats don't wash each other so I guess the areas they can't lick on themselves (neck, around the eyes, around the ears) crave that scrubby cat-tongue sensation. We all enjoy these new grooming sessions hugely. The finger cover accessory is very chewy, and we have one cat who nearly needed surgery last year after swallowing a chunk of silicone from a visitor's phone case without being noticed, & getting seriously plugged up. I worry that he will eat this device too if I let him. I can't even use it on him or he just keeps gnawing at it (and not in a mild way like I could sneakily clean his mouth a bit- in a vigorous way that would puncture my finger if I didn't swiftly fend him off). So if you buy this or something similar, PLEASE never leave it unattended. Store it in a secure drawer. Stuff in in your pocket while you're using the other toothbrush tool rather than setting it down nearby. It only takes a couple seconds for a pet to eat something like this. You may think your cat is not a chewer, but ours didn't seem to be either, for 8 years, until that chunk of Otter Box and his apparent interest in this tool. Better be safe! I still hope to ease into tooth care eventually but even if all we ever do with this kit is facial grooming, I feel it was money well spent. My furbabies just light up when they see me pick it up!

I recently tried the peanut butter-flavored puppy toothpaste for my 5-month-old pup, and I must say it left me with mixed feelings. The product boasts a list of ingredients that include Sorbitol, Hydrated Silica, Vegetable Glycerin, and more, which initially gave me confidence in its effectiveness. However, the experience was not quite as straightforward as I had hoped. First, the positive aspects of the puppy toothpaste. The peanut butter flavor is undoubtedly a clever and appealing choice for dogs, and my pup seemed somewhat interested in the taste. The inclusion of Sorbitol, Vegetable Glycerin, and other tooth-friendly ingredients added a level of reassurance that it would help maintain my pup's oral hygiene. One of the notable ingredients in this toothpaste is Sodium Hexametaphosphate, which is commonly used to help control tartar and plaque buildup on a dog's teeth. Additionally, the inclusion of Ascorbic Acid Phosphate is a welcome touch, as it is known for its potential benefits in dental care. However, there were a few downsides to this product. While the peanut butter scent was not terrible, it didn't seem to be a massive hit with my pup. His reaction to the toothpaste wasn't enthusiastic, and it left me wondering whether it was genuinely cleaning his teeth or merely masking his bad breath with the peanut butter flavor. The scent was more like a temporary distraction rather than a true cleaning experience. The ingredient list includes Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, which can be a concern for some pet owners due to its potential to irritate sensitive gums. It's always a good idea to monitor your puppy's reaction when using products containing this ingredient. Overall, the peanut butter-flavored puppy toothpaste did an okay job, but I wasn't entirely convinced of its cleaning efficacy. It was a pleasant distraction for my pup during the brushing process, but it left me wondering whether it was truly addressing his dental hygiene needs. The ingredient list is a mix of promising dental care components and potential concerns, so it's worth discussing with your veterinarian to determine if this toothpaste is the best fit for your puppy.

The brush has super soft fine bristles that work perfectly for my 16 year old dog. He was a lot easier to brush this time. He seemed to like the bacon flavor.

My dog doesn’t mind me brushing with this toothpaste and brushes. It seemed to freshen her breath. Even though she regularly gets dental cleaning this is a good option in between cleanings. This is a great size toothbrush for a 12 lb dog where some may be to large this works well,

Do not think this is better then the baseline product we all thought we was improving on. My cat threw up instantly the very first use and absolutely hates the flavor. I truly hate things designed for cats and dogs. However, the included blue finger brush is top class and saves the purchase alone.

Ma chienne l'a accepté au premier essai.

Gute Zahnpasta, über den sofortigen Effekt beim Putzen kann ich noch nichts sagen, aber die Zähne sehen gut aus. Schön ist, dass man es täglich nutzen kann.

I believe my puppy enjoys brushing

A mi alaskan malamute le fascina el sabor, me deja lavarle los dientes sin problema. El cepillo es resistente y limpia de manera eficiente los dientes, no tiene acumulacion de sarro ya que lo utilizamos minimo dos veces por semana

My dog didn’t hesitate with this toothpaste like she did with the others.
