Why we picked it
Wipes sit between doing nothing and a full brushing. You wrap one around a finger, lift the lip and wipe the outer surfaces of the teeth and the gumline in a few seconds. The texture lifts loose debris and the maker says the formula helps reduce plaque and freshen breath. Because it is your finger and not a tool, most dogs accept it faster than a brush, which also makes wipes a good training bridge.
The catch is that wiping is not brushing. There are no bristles getting under the gumline, so it will not keep up with a dog prone to tartar if it is the only thing you do. It is a travel and backup product, and a 60-count pack is about two months of daily use. Scented wipes can also bother sensitive dogs, and anything stuck on the teeth already needs a vet, not a wipe.
Good for
- Travel, boarding bags and road trips.
- Dogs still learning to accept mouth handling.
- Backup on the nights the brush stays in the drawer.
- Small mouths where a brush feels like too much.
Skip it if
- You plan to use wipes instead of brushing on a dog with tartar.
- Your dog reacts to scented products.
- Your dog snaps when fingers go near the mouth.
