This stuff is awesome and so easy to use. It flaked off horrible tartar on my two very very old dogs (teens) after a few weeks of use and kept it off. We used it for nearly a couple of months before the thick tartar came off my dogs' teeth. I thought it was a joke or only worked if the teeth were fairly tartar free. Nope, it was amazing. It's the only thing I can use on my yorkie because she will not let anybody near her mouth. Her teeth are clean and shiny.

I also hand scale Flo's teeth....she is very good at this....I have taught her to open her mouth when needed so this helps. Working at a vets office you learn what is nice for a dog to know and I tend to teach my dogs this.

Without polishing the teeth after, scaling creates tiny grooves on the enamal that tarter will stick too. I dont like hand scaling for this reason. Tarter will accumulate faster because of the grooves. Brushing is the best.

Great info, THX. Between brushing & Proden I hope not to scale again.
