About this product

1. Is Tropiclean Water Additive Safe for Dogs?

Answer

Fresh Breath by TropiClean has been subjected to various clinical trials and proven to be safe for dogs. Three groups of dogs were observed based on their weight - small, medium, and large. After the dogs were scored on their levels of tartar and plaque, they were assigned to a control group with no oral care and Fresh Breath oral care. The results showed that 43 percent of dogs treated with Fresh Breath and had medium to excessive plaque and tartar showed a decrease in the condition. Moreover, the experts found that there were no instances of toxicity during the test as well at any time following the treatment.

2. How Do You Use Tropiclean Fresh Breath Water Additives?

Answer

The TropiClean Fresh Breath Water Additives, as the names suggest, are to be added to your dog's drinking water. According to instructions, dog parents should add 1/2 cap of the additive to the dog's 8oz water bowl with every refill. According to the brand and experts, TropiClean Fresh Breath is super safe for regular use. It has been formulated to effectively treat bad cases of plaque, tartar, and bad breath. TropiClean claims that the Fresh Breath products are made using naturally derived ingredients from naturally occurring raw materials or adapted from naturally occurring plant- or mineral-based materials. These additives are designed to be administered through drinking water and don't need any particular usage instructions.

3. What Are the Ingredients in Fresh Breath by Tropiclean?

Answer

The main ingredients in Fresh Breath by TropiClean include water, glycerin, Citric Acid, Zinc Citrate, Cetylpyridinum Chloride, and Green Tea. The brand claims that all of the ingredients in this product and its entire product lineup are sourced from naturally occurring raw materials or naturally occurring plant- or mineral-based materials. These ingredients help defend against plaque and tartar buildup on your dog's teeth. Moreover, the additive also freshens up your furry friend's breath for up to 12 hours. Bad breath is often considered a sign of poor dental hygiene, and poor oral health could affect your dog's overall health. This is why it's crucial to stay on top of your dog's daily oral care program to prevent plaque and tartar buildup. TropiClean products, including Fresh Breath, have been approved by Veterinary Oral Health Council (VOHC).

4. Does Tropiclean Contain Xylitol?

Answer

Human toothpaste is not recommended for use on dogs because most of these toothpastes contain Xylitol. This particular ingredient is harmless for humans but very dangerous and toxic for dogs. Xylitol is a non-sugar artificial sweetener found in sugar-free candies, lozenges, liquid medicines, and vitamins. Since it's a sugar-free alternative, it's commonly used in dental care products like mouthwashes and toothpaste. While it doesn't affect humans, it can prove to be fatal for dogs. To give you an idea, as little as two pcs of sugar-free chewing gum or candy can cause low blood sugar in a 13-pound dog. And ten pcs of the same candy for the same dog is likely to cause severe issues like liver failure and death. Therefore, it should be avoided at all costs for dogs. TropiClean takes dog health quite seriously and doesn't use Xylitol in its products. However, some products contain natural derived alcohol from corn, which helps prevent plaque and tartar.

5. Can Puppies Use Fresh Breath by Tropiclean?

Answer

Oral care should be one of the essential parts of the regular grooming schedule for your puppies. While it helps keep your dog's breath fresh, it also affects the dog's overall health. According to statistics, most dogs start showing symptoms of some or other form of oral disease by three. Therefore, it's imperative to have them on some form of oral care right from puppyhood. The Fresh Breath water additive from TropiClean is entirely safe for regular use and provides daily plaque and tartar defense to the dog. All this by simply drinking their water. Since the product uses only naturally occurring ingredients, it's safe for use in puppies.

6. Is Tropiclean Toothpaste Safe?

Answer

The TropiClean toothpaste is designed to help reduce plaque and tartar while also soothing irritated gums. The product contains green tea extracts and natural ingredients, all sourced within the states. Therefore, the product is safe for use in both cats and dogs. There have been concerns over some TropiClean products containing Xylitol, which is toxic to dogs. However, the products don't contain harmful ingredients and instead use naturally derived alcohol from corn to prevent plaque and tartar buildup.

7. How Does Tropiclean Fresh Breath Work?

Answer

According to the brand, dog parents need to add the water additive to the drinking bowl of their dogs, that's all. The product works its magic as the dog drinks its water and shows results within 14 days of regular usage. Notably, the TropiClean Fresh Breath has a unique blend of ingredients that includes green tea extract. The combination of ingredients together combat plaque and tartar while also killing bacteria that cause foul breath.

8. Do dogs need water additives?

Answer

While some dogs and cats may resist having their mouths touched, maintaining their dental health is crucial. Water additives designed for dental hygiene can offer an effective and non-invasive solution to help prevent dental diseases in pets. These additives often contain enzymes or other active ingredients that work to reduce plaque and tartar buildup, ultimately promoting better oral health. Dental water additives provide a convenient alternative for pets that are averse to traditional dental care routines, such as tooth brushing. Adding the recommended amount to your pet's water bowl supports their oral hygiene without requiring direct intervention.

9. What can I put in my dog's water to keep my teeth clean?

Answer

Prioritizing your dog's dental health is essential, and using VOHC (Vet Oral Health Council) approved products is a good approach. TropiClean Fresh Breath Water Additive is a dental care solution designed to be added to your dog's water bowl. It not only helps combat bad breath but also contains ingredients that work to reduce plaque and tartar buildup. The formula typically includes natural ingredients like green tea and mint to freshen your dog's breath and support oral health. Oxyfresh Water Additive is a popular choice known for its ability to tackle bad breath in dogs. Beyond just freshening breath, it often contains ingredients like Oxygene, effectively reducing bacteria that contribute to plaque and tartar. The formula is usually tasteless and odorless, making it palatable for most dogs when added to their drinking water. Petlab Co. offers a range of pet dental care products, including water additives. These products are formulated to promote oral hygiene by targeting plaque and tartar. Some may contain ingredients like enzymes that break down bacteria in the mouth, contributing to fresher breath and a healthier dental environment for your dog. Nylabone's Advanced Oral Care Liquid Tartar Remover is designed to be added to your dog's water to help control tartar formation. The liquid formula often contains ingredients that work to break down existing tartar, making it easier to remove during chewing. It may also include ingredients that support overall gum health and reduce the risk of dental issues.

10. Is there a mouthwash for dogs?

Answer

Yes, mouthwash-like products are designed specifically for dogs to help improve their oral hygiene. These products are formulated to address issues such as bad breath, plaque, and tartar. While they may not be exactly like human mouthwash, they serve a similar purpose in promoting better oral health for dogs. Some companies offer oral rinses or mouthwashes for dogs. These products are designed to be added to your dog's water or applied directly to their mouth. They often contain ingredients that help reduce bacteria, freshen breath, and improve dental health. As mentioned earlier, dental water additives like TropiClean Fresh Breath Water Additive and Oxyfresh Water Additive can be considered a type of "mouthwash" for dogs. These additives are typically added to your dog's water bowl, and as your dog drinks, the formula helps fight plaque and tartar buildup while freshening their breath. Dental sprays for dogs are another option. These sprays are applied directly to your dog's teeth and gums. They often contain ingredients that help control bacteria and promote oral health. While not exactly a mouthwash, dental wipes for dogs can be used to clean your dog's teeth and gums. These wipes are typically infused with dental care solutions and can be a convenient way to maintain oral hygiene.

11. Can I use Listerine for dogs?

Answer

While some dog owners may consider using Listerine or similar antiseptic mouthwashes for dogs, it's necessary to be aware of the specific ingredients and potential risks involved. Listerine Original, for example, contains an alcohol content of 26.9%, which can be harmful to dogs if ingested. Alcohol ingestion can lead to intoxication and pose a risk to a dog's health. Listerine Original also contains methyl salicylate, but the level is generally low. While this compound is considered non-toxic to dogs in small amounts, the high alcohol content in Listerine makes it unsuitable for canine use. If you want to address your dog's breath or oral health, it's recommended to use products specifically formulated for dogs. Various dog-friendly dental care products, such as dental rinses, water additives, dental chews, and toothpaste, are designed with canine safety in mind.

12. Can I put toothpaste in my dog's water?

Answer

No, you should not put toothpaste in your dog's water. Toothpaste is designed to be used for brushing teeth and should not be ingested in large quantities. Ingesting toothpaste, even in small amounts, can lead to stomach upset, and some toothpaste formulations may contain ingredients that are not safe for ingestion. One significant concern is the presence of xylitol, a sugar substitute commonly found in some human toothpaste brands. Xylitol is safe for human consumption but is highly toxic to dogs. Xylitol triggers a rapid insulin release in dogs, causing a sudden and dangerous drop in blood sugar levels. This can result in symptoms such as vomiting, loss of coordination, seizures, and, in severe cases, can be life-threatening. Xylitol ingestion has also been associated with liver failure in dogs. The exact mechanism is not completely understood, but xylitol can cause damage to the liver, leading to serious health issues. If you are looking for ways to improve your dog's oral hygiene, specific dog toothpaste products are formulated to be safe for dogs. These toothpaste products are often flavored to make them more appealing to dogs, and they are designed to be used with a dog toothbrush or fingerbrush for effective teeth cleaning.
