BRUSHING
1. Insert the Bite Block and wrap the velcro strap around your dog’s snout.
2. Using one of our special toothbrushes and a small amount of our beef-flavored toothpaste, gently but firmly brush each tooth. You may see some tartar and plaque coming off as you brush.
3. Remove the Bite Block and rinse the toothbrush.
4. Repeat daily for optimal results.
TARTAR REMOVAL
Make sure to practice on the practice set of dog teeth in your kit before attempting to clean your dog’s teeth.
1. Insert the Bite Block and wrap the velcro strap around your dog’s snout.
2. Take the special scraper/scaler and hold it in your hand the same way you would hold a pencil. Using firm, even strokes, gently scrape the visible plaque off of each tooth. You should see the plaque coming off with each stroke. Take care not to hit the gums.
3. Sanitize your scaler in the dishwasher, with extra hot water. Dry the tool immediately and store it in a safe place.
4. Repeat as often as possible for optimal results.
