Yes, it's a new vaccine and is still being studied.
It kills certain bacteria but the problem is, the body should take care of that and the teeth should be brushed everyday. In my opinion, this vaccine isn't needed 99% of the time. It may be useful if the dog refuses to let you near its mouth but still, even with the shot the teeth HAVE to be cleaned. It could be just another drug that can be sold to make $$$. When we start vaccinating against bacteria that is "normal" (or common) are we making a way for super bacteria to form? I think there are better things to vaccinate against. Dogs are way over-drugged already.

I highly recommend a product called OraVet for dogs.
There are no known side effects and it works great.
