PlaqueOff

[BADGER1]

Has anyone used this product and if so what were the results? Just bought a small tub as its pricey, so hoping that it might help shift some of the tartar build up on badgers back teeth!

It is pretty effective on removing plaque, but tartar will have to be scraped off by the vet. Once it has been removed, adding a bit of Plaque Off to meals should help keep teeth nice and clean.

Carrots and raw chicken wings are good too.

so would you recommend it then as it is quite pricey!

I work in the vets so I have to recommend it!

I actually did buy it and use it for Gari, I do think it works ok, but you can also save your money and use the raw carrots and wings instead.

We use it for the cats as well, they are 4 yrs old and have lovely clean teeth.

I have been wondering about this for our three elderly cats. They all went to the vets and I was recommended to give them chews!!! Now all three cats turn their noses up at various foods. One will only eat the fishy sort, the other two will only eat the liver and something sort and no one will eat bikkies with GREEN bits in. YUK. I just raised one eyebrow when she mentioned chews! However after being quoted de scaling costs I was interested in plaqueoff, my vet had never heard of it.
 Is it easy to apply?
Does it soften the plaque or dissolve it?
There is also some gel from USA, Petedge catalogue, that you spray or paint onto teeth. That looked good as well although until you know someone who has tried it its just advertising.

Most cats and dogs only use one side of their mouth to chew, so it doesn't clean all of their teeth.

The Plaque Off is added to food, you only need a tiny little scoop of it. The plaque is quite soft anyway before it turns into tartar, so it must just soften it further and it comes off.

I use it for William. He had a scale and polish a year ago because he had a lot of tartar for a 4 year old dog. I don't know why it was so bad, but he's a lazy eater and doesn't attempt anything that needs serious chewing, so maybe that's why.

Since then I've used PlaqueOff and I'm fairly confident that it helps as his teeth have stayed quite clean. In the last couple of months I've introduced raw chicken wings once a week, mainly to help with his anal glands (which they have) but also because crunching on them should help to keep his back teeth clean.

I don't think that PlaqueOff will get rid of existing tartar, but if that's removed it should help the teeth to stay clean.

I used it for Benji and the groomer and the vet always said what good teeth he had.My cats wont have it but am persisiting as it does work.I dont think its that pricey considering it lasts for ages.
