We avoided dentals for over five years (not because I refused, but her teeth just weren't bad enough to put her under). She had a dental in June (I slacked and stopped homecare) and lost no teeth. Her gums are nice for her history.

I can't tell you if it was the brushing or the OraVet or both that made the massive improvement, but I do know something worked.
Well, then, I will be doing both! Thanks!
