There are a ton of rinses, gels, sprays, and water additives that you can try, but the majority of them are either not proven or there are concerns around ingredients.

Brush daily, preferably with an enzymatic toothpaste.
OraVet weekly.
Dentals as needed.

That is what I do and it has worked well.

Yorkies are prone to oral problems. Requiring dentals every year is very common. Some could really use one every 3-6 months. The anesthesia risk is lower than the risk of letting dental disease get out of control and affect the organs.
