How Do Treats Clean Teeth?
Removes Plaque and Tartar
Chewing on treats supports your dog's dental health as the chew scrapes away plaque and tartar from your dog's teeth. The treat brushes along your dog's teeth, acting as a natural toothbrush.
Activates Saliva
Chewing on treats stimulates saliva in your dog's mouth. This saliva flushes away bacteria or any stray bits of food in your dog's mouth.
If the bacteria or food is left in your dog's teeth, it could cause infection and inflammation in your dog's mouth which can be painful and lead to dental disease.
Olive Wood
Olive Wood provides a strong chew for your dog to really sink their teeth into. As their teeth sink into the wood, it scrapes away plaque and tartar, cleaning the teeth in the process.
Olive Wood Dog Chews are dense and compact in structure which means that they do not splinter or shard like normal sticks. Pieces of the wood may come away as your dog gnaws at it but it will not splinter or shard like a normal stick.
With different sizes to choose from, the chew satisfies your dog’s natural instinct to chew, which helps to maintain strong teeth and gums whilst also providing Iron, Magnesium, Potassium and Calcium which are complementary to your dog’s diet.
