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.
She hates getting her teeth brushed so I actually don't brush as frequently as I should and what % of minimum crude fat should I be looking for in the wet foods?
