Breath improvement: 7-14 days for most dogs

Visible plaque reduction: 30-60 days (depending on severity)

Best results: 90 days of consistent daily use

Think of it like going to the gym—you won't see abs after one workout, but consistency pays off. The enzymes work 24/7 once activated by saliva, breaking down plaque gradually before it hardens into tartar.

Depends on dog size:

• Small dogs (under 20 lbs): 60-90 days
• Medium dogs (20-50 lbs): 45-60 days
• Large dogs (50+ lbs): 30-45 days

Cost breakdown:

• Small dog: ~$0.38-$0.58 per day
• Medium dog: ~$0.58-$0.78 per day
• Large dog: ~$0.78-$1.16 per day

Compare to:

• Professional cleaning: $800-$3,000 (once)
• Greenies: ~$0.50-$1.00 per day
• Dentastix: ~$0.30-$0.60 per day

Cheaper than most dental chews, lasts longer, works better.

No — and we won't lie to you about that.

What this IS:

• Prevention tool to keep clean teeth clean
• Maintenance between professional cleanings
• Way to avoid or delay future cleanings

What this ISN'T:

• A substitute for removing existing rock-hard tartar
• Treatment for advanced periodontal disease

Best approach: If your dog already has severe buildup, get a professional cleaning first, then use this daily to maintain those results and potentially avoid cleanings for years.

If caught early (light-moderate buildup), this can prevent you from needing that $1,200 cleaning at all.

Rare, but possible — especially if you start with a full dose immediately.

The right way to introduce it:

• Days 1-3: Use ¼ scoop
• Days 4-7: Use ½ scoop
• Day 8+: Full recommended dose

Why this matters: A few customers rushed the dose and reported soft stools for 2-3 days. Once they backed off and gradually increased, problem solved.

Sensitive stomachs: Mix with pumpkin puree or bone broth. The enzymes need food to activate anyway.

If problems persist beyond a week: Stop use and contact us for full refund.

Always check with your vet first if your dog has:

• Kidney disease
• Liver disease
• Hyperthyroidism (some seaweed-based products are high in iodine)
• Active infections or dental abscesses
• Is on medications

Generally safe for: Healthy dogs, senior dogs, diabetic dogs, dogs with heart murmurs (since there's no anesthesia risk)

Yes — same formula, same results.

Cat-specific challenges:

• Cats are pickier (start with ⅛ scoop mixed into wet food)
• Dry food works less well (they don't produce as much saliva)
• May take 5-7 days for acceptance

Dose: ½ scoop for average-sized cats (8-12 lbs)

Many customers use it for multi-pet households—one product for all their animals.
