You made a very cruicial point--brushing and other efforts in dental hygeine are very important as well.
My understanding (and
opinion) is that canned food DOES help build tartar (as you pointed out) and leaves residue on the teeth not left by kibble, which granted, has limited actually 'cleaning' power. It's not so much 'what does kibble do that canned doesn't' for me, it's 'what DOESN'T kibble do that canned DOES.'
My
personal opinion is that anything I can do to reduce the amount of build up (and the cleanings that result), the better.
