Interesting!! Do you see this first hand? Also, do you hear a lot of anecdotal proof from others using coco oil?
YorkieMom - I've tried some teeth stuff. Petzlife has a fairly good reputation...but I was inconsistent w/ using it, and so I can't attest to it. I know others have reported good results.
I also used Plaque Off, and that was easiest in terms of compliance bc you sprinkle it on their food. I think it does help, and it's a fair price bc the jar lasts a long time.
Some have had luck w/ Leba III.
I think raw bones are the best for working the teeth. My kiddos are 8, 6, and 3 - and have never had dentals yet. I use RMBs and also various chews - the RMBs maybe once a week; various chews every other day or so.
Oh, have you tried CET chews?? Excellent! Read about the dental chemical component of CETs.
