| Yes, you must use a toothpaste made especially for dogs when you brush their teeth like Petrodex or CET. Human toothpaste contains Xylitol and can be toxic to dogs. |

| I recommend you use PetzLife Oral Care gel. - It removes plaque & tarter & kills bacteris

| Does anybody else's dog like chewing on the toothbrush? Riley goes crazy over toothbrushes. He always tried to steal the one I used for brushing his teeth. Recently I went and got some regular ones for him to play with as toys and he goes crazy over them. Lol. |

| I use CET. I don't use a brush though. I put it on my fingers and rub it on Beno's teeth. Also the vet told me not to rinse it.
