Dental Treats FAQ's
What are dental dog treats?
Dental dog treats are specially designed chews that help clean your dog’s teeth, reduce plaque and tartar build-up, and freshen breath. Their texture, shape, and chewing action help promote better oral hygiene between vet cleanings. This range includes natural dental treats from brands such as Blackdog, as well as durable, dog-specific chews made by brands like Himalayan Dog Chew.
Do dental treats really help clean my dog’s teeth?
Yes—when used regularly, dental treats can significantly reduce plaque and tartar. While they don’t replace professional veterinary cleanings, they support daily dental care and help maintain healthier gums and fresher breath.
Are dental treats safe for all dogs?
Most dogs can enjoy dental treats, but size, age, and chewing style matter. Always choose a treat that matches your dog’s size and chewing strength, and supervise them while they chew. If your dog has dental disease, missing teeth, or a sensitive stomach, consult your vet before introducing new chews.
How often should I give my dog dental treats?
Many brands recommend giving a dental treat once per day for best results. Always follow the guidelines on the product packaging and adjust based on your dog’s calorie needs and chewing habits.
Can puppies have dental dog treats?
Some dental treats are suitable for puppies once they reach a specific age or weight. Check the product’s age recommendation and choose softer options for young puppies who are still developing their adult teeth.
