Thick plaque/tartar buildup...help/question I would like to get opinions on what we should do with our babies teeth. She has very thick tartar/plaque buildup. We would like to avoid the anesthesia dental if possible but if it is inevitable obviously we would do it for her health. She was a rescue dog so she came from a mill and her teeth were never taken care of. We have nursed her back to health over the last year and now all that is left is her teeth.
As you can see in the attached picture the buildup is quite thick. We just bought petzlife gel to use on them to see if it would soften it to allow us chip/brush it off. We have been able to get a couple of the thick pieces off with a fingernail. Has anyone had experience/luck using the petzlife gel with this severe of buildup? |
