Some diets are said to be better or easier on the teeth than other diets, but I would not say that feeding raw means no teeth cleaning or tooth brushing. Also, not all "raw" diets are really raw, and contain contain other things besides meat. Lets be careful of what we pass as "fact" in our enthusiasm of our food choice.
