In our grooming shop, we use this product, but anyone at home could do the same. At the beginning of a bath, we pump a squirt or two in each side the dogs mouth (little mouth, less, bigger mouth more). The longer it sits the better. Towards the end of the bath, we do some scaling, and with regular grooming, eventually the whole mouth is completed.When the plaque is really thick, it often comes off easily, like paint chips. There are some instances, where this product is not going to be the thing to use for severe periodontal disease, because removing the tartar/plaque will create a lot of bleeding. A vet should be employed for such cases. But for mild to fairly severe build-up, its a cost effective alternative to the service at the vet's office.In pets with just a little, soft film over the teeth, its a great product for maintenance, and will cause all that to brush off beautifully with pet toothpaste and a finger brush. It does freshen the breath of pets where scaling isn't tolerated, which is always nice. For dogs that like to chew, I recommend putting some of this is in their mouth and giving them their favorite bone to work off the plaque.
