Since I have been using it, I have had no trouble. My miniture poodle had terrible teeth when I rescued her from animal research at 2 years old she had lost five of them. Now her gums are healthy.

Spike holds his jaws shut to tight I can't open them. How do I do this so it's not such a trauma to both the dogs and me???> Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated I want to clean my 2 Yorkies teeth but the problem is they

She had chronic diarrhea and vomiting but managed to maintain a relatively stable weight but looked 'poorly'. The vet said she had colitis and she had several tooth cleanings over the years. She had terrible smelling breath which would come on in conjunction with her sick stomach. At the age of 12 she had a dental cleaning that caused a pinched nerve in her jaw. Long story short, her dental X Rays showed that she had 5 teeth that had ROTTED BELOW THE GUM LINE! They were not visible on previous cleanings. At this point we were seeing a dental specialist who removed the rotten roots and the change in my dog is nothing short of miraculous. She gets her teeth brushed twice daily, mouthwash twice daily and antibiotic pulse therapy for 5 days per month and the difference is just so enormous! My other dog is benefiting from my increased knowledge about good dental hygeine and every dog I have in future will also benefit. I just can't recommend this tiny gift to your animal highly enough.

Two years later and after much tooth brushing, he now has nice white teeth and not so bad doggie breath. I brush his teeth not only for the overall health of my dog, but also to decrease the pain and cost of having to take him to the Vet to get his teeth cleaned.
