Proden PlaqueOff Dental Care for Dogs and Cats, 180gm

Efficace ! après détartrage, la mauvaise haleine était vite revenue. Avec ce produit, plusieurs semaines d’utilisation post détartrage et ça va bien ! Par contre, ils n’aiment ni l’odeur ni le gout donc je masque ça avec un jus de viande sur leurs croquettes. J’avais essayé le liquide à mettre dans l’eau avant mais mes chiens ne la buvaient pas.

I have used ProDen PlaqueOff Powder for my small and toy-breed dogs since 2019. While I have immense respect for the company's high standards, five years of experience has shown me that its application requires a nuanced approach for high-risk breeds. ✅ The Pros & Peace of Mind • Ethical Origins: Knowing the active ingredient is VOHC approved and was first tested on humans before pets gives me total confidence in its safety. • 100% Organic & Natural: Sustainably harvested Scandinavian seaweed with no artificial additives, gluten, or sugar. Effective Breath Freshener: I notice a significant improvement in "doggy breath" within about 3 weeks. ❌ The Cons & Important Nuances • Thyroid Warning: Because of the high natural iodine, it is unsuitable for pets with hyperthyroidism. • Consistency is Vital: If I skip more than 3–4 days, the breath-freshening benefits begin to fade. • Not a Standalone Solution: It cannot replace the mechanical force needed to clean crowded teeth in tiny breeds. The Science of "Small Mouths" & Real Results 🧬 This powder works systemically through saliva to break down bacterial biofilm. I recently saw a perfect example of how this works: one of my dogs had light tartar build-up on two teeth. After two months of using this powder combined with daily brushing and weekly vet-recommended braided ostrich tendon chews, the results were clear. The tartar simply fell off one tooth, and on the second tooth, most of it could be scraped away easily with a fingernail, leaving only one stubborn spot. This highlights that the powder works by softening existing deposits over time (approx. 8 weeks) rather than making them vanish magically. The mechanical force of a toothbrush or a fibrous chew remains essential to "finish the job." ⚠️ A Critical Note on Scaling Even if the tartar feels soft, never use sharp metal instruments or "human" dental scalers at home. Attempting to scrape teeth with anything harder than a toothbrush or a fingernail can cause enamel scratches and severe gum trauma. Furthermore, professional veterinary cleanings are still necessary to treat disease below the gum line. 💰 Cost & Value Analysis (For 2 Small Dogs) While I initially looked at the 60g tub, the 180g tub is the clear winner for value in a multi-dog household. For my two small dogs, the 60g tub works out at roughly 14p per day, whereas the 180g tub drops the cost to just 11p per day. That is a saving of around £14.00 per year just by opting for the larger size! Because two dogs will finish the 180g tub in roughly 9 months, the seaweed remains fresh and potent throughout. Final Verdict I use this powder to soften the build-up, and alongside brushing and veterinary checks. It makes tartar much easier to manage, but it is a powerful addition, not a total replacement for a physical dental routine! 🌿🪥🐶

Bottle packaging looks different from posted. Never expect the expiry in Dec23. Bought 2 bottle but might not be able to finish in time. Bought from retail shop and the expiry is longer 11/2years at least.
