My Eko, age 2, had a check up today.  In August he had his first dental cleaning because he had horrible tartar build up for such a young cat.  His gums were inflamed and bled some during the cleaning.  JUST 3 and a half months later (today) it was evident that he has two cavities or lesions on two back teeth.  We will schedule another dental soon and most likely those teeth will be extracted.

Anyways, the vet mentioned a supplement for dental health that I had never heard of before.  I was curious what the knowledgeable folks here would think about it.  I was surprised I'd never heard of it because I've done a ton of reading on feline dental health (having two young cats with bad teeth and one stomatitis cat we recently adopted.)

What do you think......


Eko already gets the following supplements....a probiotic, salmon oil (omega 3's) and CoQ10.

This link is better because you can see the ingredients.....

hmm...don't know WHAT to think
.  All the reviews on Amazon are good, as I'm sure you read.  Your Vet recommended it, so I would probably give it a try.  Not much to lose at this point, especially if his teeth are that bad.And if it works, that would be GREAT! 

Let us know how it goes if you decide to try it.

BTW, we use zeolite in our household (humans mainly), and we got a very good dental check-up last week ourselves
, although I've never seen that listed as one of the benefits of taking it.

If he will eat raw chicken wings that is brilliant for dental health as it keeps the teeth super-clean.  Unfortunately quite a few cats won't touch them....
