Food for bad teeth

[cdawnfine]

Hi,

I searched and searched for an answer before this post. I see a lot about Petzlife and brushing of the teeth but dose anyone know of a dry dog food that is good for the dogs teeth that can help reduce the amount of tatar and plaque that builds up on the teeth. I have noticed a lot of people on this site use the RAW method which is not the route I want to go. Milo is currently on Natural Balance small bites wich he loves and my vet wants us to switch to a prescription dental food which I am not sure about. I love my vet and trust him 100% but after looking at the food I am very confusted. Any help is appreciated.

I answered this in the other thread.

The prescription diets may work but they aren't necessary healthy all around. Ellie's vet (she is really into dentistry) never mentioned switching. I would stay with what you are feeding if you are happy with it. I prefer homecooked or premium quality canned though. The moisture is great for them but vets will usually push kibble...


Whatevery you do, it is important to brush.
