ProDen PlaqueOff Powder for Dogs & Cats, Tartar & Bad Breath Remover with 100% Natural Teeth Plaque Remover 180 g

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! 🌿🪥🐶

Some adverts and reviews might suggest that this is a one stop solution for your dog’s dental health. That’s not been my experience, but I still recommend it overall. We’ve been adding plaque-off to our dog’s food for approx 3 months now. We had noticed a significant build up of tartar, particularly around the canine teeth and wanted to do what we can to get this under control. We had been brushing using an enzyme toothpaste and seen some improvement. However after a few weeks of using Plaque-off AND continuing the brushing we saw a much more marked improvement in tartar removal. It seemed the Plaque-off is helping to soften the build up on the teeth and make it easier to remove. Our dog doesn’t do a lot of chewing, but again what little she does seems to have more effect now in clearing away the build up from her back teeth in particular. Thankfully our dog seems to have no problem with the seaweed taste and is quite happy to eat her regular food with this sprinkled on top. We use two scoopfuls (which is a tiny amount really), so even the small size tub last a couple of months. Having seen the results we went for the big tub on the 2nd order. So don’t think you can just add this to food and it will keep your dog’s teeth gleaming. Think of it as part of the process to make what you do (brushing/chewing) that much more effective.

Excellent product can see change in dogs teeth, less staining less plaque no smell or odor

Bought this on the 20th Dec, fed one scoop on our precious boy's food each day until now (12th Jan) - that's all - and the effects have been amazing! Totally 'wow' amazing. I've always been meticulous about keeping our (now Rainbow Bridge) boys teeth clean which they let me do with veterinary Logic Gel and a child's electric toothbrush (I thought they'd never allow me to switch it on and one didn't, but the other loved it ... weird!). But our new boy has always been a head-twizzler and hated having his teeth cleaned in anyway, and the only thing I was really reaching was his front teeth. He's had various dental chews which seemed to work to a limited level with him, and there was always the concern over what was in them. Although he had antlers and other things, they weren't cleaning his teeth consistently. He's just gone 7yrs and at a recent health check I asked how his teeth were and our lovely Vet said 'good, but he's getting patches of plaque build up which are usual for his age'. But plaque build up just isn't good. I read the reviews of Plaque Off and thought I'll give it a go - after all it is thought that our own human distant relatives used seaweed to clean their teeth. As I said above, I can only describe the results as 'Wow!'. The areas deep on his back teeth the Vet had shown to me with yellowing plaque are now perfectly clear. His gums are in really good shape and his teeth are looking white even after less than a month of use. I just sprinkle it on top of his food and he doesn't both at all, just eats it. This is the best thing I've found for doggy-teeth cleaning and will be a permanent thing for Floyd now! I do still do brushing with his toothbrush/Logic Oral Gel purely because the Vet has said the brushing action is still good. But now it can be a much calmer experience for Floyd without me worrying so much.

This is such a brilliant item my dogs had this from being 8 weeks old vet always says what lovely teeth he has

It is wonderful for dogs I have been using it for years

I have two dogs both of which are dry fed on kibble and also occasionally have chews and antlers to gnaw on. When I finally took the plunge and spent quite a lot of money on this product there were several things I was interested in learning. Does the product work? Yes it does but it takes some time and you need to use it consistently. This isn’t a short term quick fix for plaque build up and will almost need to become part of their daily feeding routine. Does it solve all plaque problems? Unfortunately not, whilst it does soften the plaque well and with chew toys/treats removed a lot of plaque this is not a miracle solution. You will still need to clean your pets teeth with paste and a brush at least 3 times a week. However with much less plaque build up and it being softer it does take much less time to brush. Which is a bonus if your dogs absolutely hate having their teeth cleaned like mine. Is it worth the money? I believe so, yes. I’ve tried several other cheaper options in the form of powders and liquids and chew treat and this seems to be the only one that really works effectively. It’s a case of buy once, cry once for this product. I’d rather spend more on a product that works than half the price on something that doesn’t

This product was recommended by our vet for both our cats, to help keep their teeth cleaner. It has reduced the amount of plaque on their teeth and the cats happily eat it sprinkled over their raw food.

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.

Zeer goed product

Ce produit est 100% algues Ascophyllum nodosum. Il est moin cher que le Prozym Plaque Off, souvent proposé par des vétérinaires. Il aide efficacement à combattre le tartre (par l'action des enzymes contenues dans les algues. Il semblerait que ProDen était le premier à développer ce produit ...(à vérifier)

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.

Ich habe leider vergessen ein "Vorher"-Foto zu machen, weshalb der Vergleich jetzt nichts nützen würde... Mein Hund (ca. 27kg) hatte wirklich fiesen Zahnbelag und dadurch bedingte Zahnfleischentzündungen. Nach nur zwei Tagen (!!!) mit je zwei Löffelchen des Puders übers Frühstück würden die Zähne bereits deutlich weißer. Nach ca. einer Woche hat sich jetzt auch bereits der hartnäckige Belag verringert und ich bin wirklich sehr begeistert von der Wirkung und bin gespannt wie weit sie reicht... aktuell halte ich es für möglich, allen Zahnbelag damit verschwinden zu lassen und eine perfekte Zahnhygiene sicherzustellen. Wichtige Erkenntnis, die ich gerne mit euch teilen möchte: ProDen verwendet einen bestimmten Stamm der Alge (Ascophyllum nodosum) die sonst grundsätzlich auch in Alternativprodukten eingesetzt wird. Ich habe die Erfahrung gemacht, das (günstigere) Konkurrenzprodukte nicht wirken...habe leider lange gebraucht das herauszufinden nachdem ich von ProDen auf günstig umgestellt habe. Nie wieder. Klare Empfehlung für dieses Produkt!
