socalgreys Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 It may be my imagination, but I have gotten better results with the Enzymatic C.E.T. toothpaste versus the Enzadent version. Any thoughts? I used Enzadent for about 6 months with no results. At the time, I was brushing once every other day, and then a dental chew every other day, with excellent results (using CET). The Enzadent did not produce the same results. Any thoughts, or personal experience?? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racindog Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Yes. I just returned from Mountain Hounds and attended 2 lectures by Dr. Queck. She is a graduate of Iowa State University, and has performed advanced dental procedures on pets since 1986. In 1993, she became a Fellow of the Academy of Veterinary Dentistry of which there are less than 100 members worldwide. She is most highly regarded in the field. She specifically recommended C.E.T. Enzymatic toothpaste. She said that the enzymes in it actually would release oxygen at the gum line when used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgs Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 I've been using the Petsmile toothpaste. I'm not sure what to look for as far as results go. I tried CET on the recommendation of others here and Percy hated it. He's probably tolerate it better now, just because he's easy and generally gets used to things. But the Petsmile is supposed to work just by getting it in their mouth. I have the CET tube still. I could rotate which one I use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

palmettobug Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 I got the Sentry version, since I wasn't sure Johnny would tolerate brushing by me. It's poultry/chicken, enzymatic, and I have noticed a difference already in breath, gum inflammation, and eating much, much better. Quote Current Crew: Gino-Gene-Eugene!

DaintyDutchess Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 I noticed an ingredient in most dog toothpastes is sorbitol (sugar alcohol preservative). I understand this is also a laxative. I had received toothpaste samples from the vets office and used them for a few days. My hound happened to have bad diarrhea on these days. She didnt have more than a pea sized amount each day. Coincidence maybe? Thoughts? I did discontinue use just in case it was the toothpaste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickiesmom Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 I've used CET Poultry (was chicken a LONG time ago) toothpaste for a long time. Seems to work well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
socalgreys Posted July 3, 2018 Author Share Posted July 3, 2018 Thank you everyone, for your responses. It is now my opinion, that the CET works better. BTW, I used poultry flavor CET in the past,no problems with taste or diarrhea. The last time I purchased it, my Vet only had the vanilla mint. My pup has no preference for taste. It has a much more appealing smell to my nose as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
