❓ Frequently Asked Questions
How do DENTASTIX reduce tartar so effectively? The two active ingredients — Sodium Tripolyphosphate and Zinc Sulphate — work by bonding with the calcium in your dog's saliva. This slows the mineralisation process that turns soft plaque into hard tartar, keeping plaque softer for longer so it's easier to remove through the natural chewing action on the X-shaped stick.
How often should I give DENTASTIX to my dog? Once daily. Daily feeding is essential to achieving the scientifically proven up to 80% tartar reduction. PEDIGREE recommends feeding at the same time each day to build a consistent routine — most dogs will quickly start reminding you if you forget!
Why is the X-shape important? The unique X-shape creates multiple contact points with the tooth surface as your dog chews, allowing the abrasive texture to reach and clean areas that straight or round chews miss — including the back teeth and along the gumline where plaque is most problematic.
Are these suitable for all large dog breeds? DENTASTIX Large is designed for large breed dogs. Always check the size recommendation on the packaging to ensure you're choosing the right size for your dog — too small a stick for a large dog reduces effectiveness and can pose a choking risk.
Do they replace brushing? DENTASTIX are a highly effective daily dental care option, particularly for dogs who won't tolerate brushing. While daily brushing remains the gold standard, consistent DENTASTIX use provides clinically meaningful tartar and plaque reduction for dogs where brushing isn't practical.
Why is gum disease such a common issue in dogs? Plaque forms naturally on teeth every day. Without regular removal, it hardens into tartar which irritates the gumline and leads to gum disease. Studies show that 4 out of 5 dogs over the age of 3 are already affected — making daily preventative care essential, not optional.
Are there any artificial additives? No — DENTASTIX contain no added artificial colours or flavours, and no added sugar. They are also low in fat, making them suitable for daily feeding as part of a balanced diet.
How long does one pack last? At one stick per day, a 56-stick pack provides approximately 8 weeks of daily dental care — great value for an ongoing health routine.
