Brushing is good, and there is also the "wipes" for teeth, I have tried them and liked, I have not tried the different things you can put in the water, but it cant hurt to try. My vet lookes at their teeth every time they are there, and our Husky has a little tartar, but not enough for him to want to sedate and clean them, I guess as long as it is not too much, they prefer to not do it. But if you have worked in dental for so many years, maybe you could even try the hmmm whatever do you call them, the pointy not so fun (when the dentist put them in your mouth lol ) and scrape it off, I know they sell it in a lot of the dog catalogs under dental care, so I guess that is something you could try.
I had no idea that the nylabones were not good for them, I was told that, that is the best you can give them, especially the puppies with their little sharp teethies, I will definately look into it before I buy another one, thanks for the info.
