Coming in the form of an appetizing enzymatic gel, this Logic toothpaste is ideal for anyone who’s energetic pooch won’t sit still long enough for a good tooth brushing.

Utilising a multi-enzyme compound, the gel contains 5 natural enzymes and 2 antibacterial agents that help fight off periodontal disease and bad breath, acting as a supplement to your dog’s own natural saliva.

The gel works by attacking the bacteria responsible for tooth loss all on its own and so there’s no need to wrestle your pup into submission for a brushing session! The unique patented formula uses a surfactant to help keep the gel in constant contact with your tyke’s teeth, breaking down existing plaque and erasing doggy breath.

Once applied directly to teeth and gums you’re all done, but if your hound is particularly ferocious, simply squeeze 1cm of gel onto your dog’s paw for them to lick off. No brushing required!

Daily brushing, however, is still the most effective way of removing plaque build-up and is highly recommended for the best results. A handy finger toothbrush is included with Logic’s paste and makes the application process even easier and more effective if your mutt can be persuaded to open their mouth!

Ingredients list: Amylase, glucoamylase, glucose oxidase, potassium thiocyanate, lactoferrine, lactoperoxidase, lysozyme, superoxide dismutase, Mild abrasives, Surfactant Active ingredient(s)

A fantastic budget option for your prized pooch, Beapher’s advanced enzyme action tooth gel is a great way of offering daily protection to your dog’s teeth and gums.

Using a mixture of enzymes and sodium polyphosphate, Beaphar’s star ingredient is propolis, a bee produced compound which acts as a teeth-strengthening agent and contains antioxidants that fight disease and damage to the body, so you can say goodbye to nasty gum diseases like gingivitis.

While many kinds of toothpaste boast their ability to remove plaque from your pet’s teeth, not many offer the incredible anti-tartar effects of Beaphar. Any plaque that resides on teeth uncleaned eventually combines with calcium to form tartar. But Beaphar’s ingredients bind to that calcium to stop leftover plaque from ever even forming a calcified layer.

A scrumptious liver flavour also encourages your dog to circulate the gel over their teeth with their tongue, meaning they become accustomed to the taste quickly, and may even come to enjoy getting their teeth cleaned.

This handy toothbrush combo kit comes with a soft grip toothbrush which is perfect for pups of all breeds and sizes. It’s double-ended brush also means there’s no escape for plaque, as you can give a vigorous brush to every nook and cranny of your mutt’s mouth.

And with a recommended usage of 2-3 times per week, Beaphar keeps your dog’s oral hygiene programme a little more spread out, making teeth cleaning easier to fit around both of your busy schedules!

Ingredients list: Anti-Plaque enzyme system (Protease, Glucose Oxidase), Sodium tripolyphosphate, Zinc Citrate trihydrate, Sorbitol, Hydrated silica, Chicken egg powder, Pork liver powder

Johnson’s needs no introduction.

This toothpaste is good for dogs and cats, but the main thing is that it is beef flavoured. Great for any dogs who will not even entertain sniffing anything which isn’t meaty. It will protect gums, as well as cleaning teeth and freshening breath (even though beef flavour doesn’t exactly suggest this).

Ingredients list: Water, Calcium Carbonate, Glycerol, Dicalcium Phosphate

Specially formulated for use with the Techmira Cleany Teeth Toothbrush for Dogs Starter Kit, this is an advanced toothpaste which helps with Tartar removal & prophylaxis.

It gets right into the gums as well, to fight inflammation and any other issues caused by sore gums. The toothpaste creates nanobubbles, which further help the cleaning process by naturally foaming without being too much for your dog.

OraFresh™ is a gentle and palatable paste containing mild polishing beads and a complex of naturally occurring enzymes involved in freshening breath, removing plaque and improving oral health.

It is poultry flavoured, which sounds unappealing for you but is great for pups. You don’t even need to use a brush – apply it straight to teeth, or add to food, and it will still increase the levels of natural enzymes to reduce harmful bacteria and break down plaque.

Beef flavour, but giving them (and you) a nice minty fresh breath scent in return, this toothpaste contains baking soda which dissolves into teeth and crevices for a deep clean.

It is completely natural, and there are a whole host of reviews stating that their fussy dog even enjoys having their teeth cleaned now.

A non-enzyme formula which discourages plaque build-up and freshens breath. Suitable for cats and dogs, which is great for multi-pet homes.

It can be used daily, either with a brush or on your finger, and your dog can then lick it off. A little goes a long way, making it great value too.

Ingredients: Water, Glycerin, Calcium Carbonate, Dicalcium Phosphate, Sodium Lauryl Sulphate, Colloidal Silica, Liquid Paraffin, Sodium Carboxymethylcellulose, Beef Flavour, Nipastat.
