Yorkies are prone to teeth problems unfortunately. This was one of many reasons I chose to feed raw...no brushing needed b/c Snick's teeth are sparkling. I still brush em once a week but prob should more often.
What type of brush are you using? Most pet supply stores sell way to large brushes for our lil guys. The brush that works best for us is an infant brush..perfect size and no harm bristles. Gauze is also good, but not as effective.
Good luck

raw will not guarantee no teeth issues just be aware as my friend had a golden retriever only fed raw and dog chewed on bone marrow - no grains whatsoever and her dog lost 27 teeth to periodontal disease like my maltese and we both took our dogs to a board certified dentist for dentals to save teeth and i used petzlife gel too for a year
