Watch the % of minimum crude fat in wet foods as it can sometimes be higher than dry foods of the same brand. My Barney had two life threatening bouts of pancreatitis due to eating wet food. Yorkies are prone to digestive issues, especially as they age.

As for wet food and teeth - if you brush, you can avoid many problems with teeth no matter what food you choose. My two dogs that are 10 have no signs of gum recession or periodontal disease and it's from good home care - I brushed their teeth about 2-3x a week since they were puppies. They have good breath and clean teeth and we've fed mostly soft home cooked foods all this time.
