Daily Delmopinol Chews for Small-Dog Oral Care

Product Description

OraVet Dental Hygiene Chews for Small Dogs are once-daily dental chews for dogs weighing 10-24 lbs and at least 6 months old. The chew’s texture mechanically cleans teeth down to the gumline, while delmopinol hydrochloride forms a protective barrier to help prevent bacteria from adhering.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1. What are OraVet Dental Hygiene Chews for Small Dogs used for?

Ans: OraVet Dental Hygiene Chews for Small Dogs are for daily oral care to help reduce plaque, tartar, and bad breath. The chew cleans mechanically, while delmopinol hydrochloride helps prevent bacteria from attaching and forming new plaque.

Q2. How does delmopinol hydrochloride work in OraVet chews?

Ans: Delmopinol hydrochloride is released during chewing and coats teeth, tongue, and gums. This creates a protective film that blocks bacterial attachment, the first step in plaque formation, tartar buildup, and the development of odor.

Q3. What dogs should use the small size OraVet chews?

Ans: The Small OraVet Dental Hygiene Chews are labeled for dogs weighing 10-24 pounds and at least six months old. Using the correct size supports safe chewing and effective plaque control, while minimizing choking risks associated with oversized chews.

Q4. How often should OraVet Dental Hygiene Chews be given?

Ans: Give one OraVet Dental Hygiene Chew per dog daily. Daily use helps maintain delmopinol’s protective barrier and supports the ongoing reduction of plaque, calculus, and bad breath between brushing and professional veterinary dental cleanings.

Q5. At what age can dogs start OraVet Dental Hygiene Chews?

Ans: OraVet chews are intended for dogs six months of age and older. This guideline helps ensure that a dog has fully developed adult teeth and the appropriate chewing strength to safely handle the medicated chew and benefit from consistent plaque control.

Q6. Can OraVet chews replace tooth brushing or dental cleanings?

Ans: No, OraVet chews are meant to complement a complete dental plan. Brushing removes existing debris, while OraVet Dental Hygiene Chews slow the formation of new plaque and help maintain cleanliness between professional dental visits.

Q7. Is it safe for my dog to eat more than one chew per day?

Ans: The directions limit use to one chew per dog per day. Giving more does not improve dental results and may add unnecessary calories or increase the risk of choking if a dog consumes chews too quickly.

Q8. How soon will I see fresher breath or cleaner teeth?

Ans: Many owners notice breath improvement within a couple of weeks as bacterial attachment decreases. Plaque and tartar control continue to improve with steady daily use, especially when started after a veterinary dental cleaning.

Q9. Can OraVet chews be used with other dental products?

Ans: Yes, OraVet Dental Hygiene Chews can be used in conjunction with tooth brushing, dental diets, or veterinarian-recommended rinses. Combining approaches supports better long-term plaque control and fresher breath in small dogs.
