How Do Earthbones Work?Updated a year ago

Your Dog naturally hosts millions of bacteria in its mouth, and while this isn't inherently problematic, the issue arises when the bacteria adhere to the teeth's surfaces, forming hardened tarter. Once tarter forms, it becomes challenging and costly to remove. Compounding the problem, tarter is sticky, attracting more bacteria that can lead to periodontal disease.

Earthbones serve as a daily tool to help your dog scrape away bacteria from the teeth before it solidifies into stubborn tarter. The Earthbones' coarse and flexible texture enables them to wrap around the teeth, removing plaque before it hardens. The mechanical action of Earthbones doesn't depend on the duration of chewing; it's more about consistency. Ensuring your dog bites down hard into the chew is crucial, preventing them from attempting to swallow it whole before it can effectively clean the teeth.
