## Overview

ARK Naturals Protection Plus Brushless Toothpaste is a vet-formulated, 5-in-1 dental chew designed for medium breed dogs (20-40 lbs) aged 12 weeks and up. This innovative chew combines a toothpaste center with natural breath fresheners like cinnamon and clove to prevent plaque and tartar buildup while supporting gum health. Made in the USA without artificial additives, it offers an easy, twice-daily alternative to brushing that keeps your dog’s teeth cleaner and breath fresher, backed by over 25 years of veterinary expertise.

## Description

Protection+ Brushless Toothpaste is the only dental chew that stops plaque and tartar before they start! Powered by nature’s most powerful antioxidant: Astaxanthin! Astaxanthin stops plaque and tartar before it can even start by boosting the antibody immunoglobulin A (lgA) in the saliva, therefore creating a protective barrier on teeth! Our unique 5-in-1 dental chews have a toothpaste center with active ingredients and natural breath fresheners such as cinnamon, clove and vanilla. Our dental chews also support gums with antioxidant power and form a protective barrier to support healthy teeth.

Review: My dogs' FAVORITE treat! - My dogs *LOVE* these treats, they are their favorite! I hope they NEVER stop making them. I was skeptical at first about how well they would clean my dogs' teeth, but I gave it a try. My dogs had moderate plaque, so I started giving them a ProDen Plaque Off chew in the am, (they will eat them, but they aren't their favorite like these are) and one of these Ark Naturals at night. They come to me at precisely 8pm demanding them, and they don't do that for the others. Sometimes the bigger one will come in ahead of time and try to trick me into giving it out early. The way I understood my reading, the kelp in the ProDen Plaque Off chews kinda makes the tartar thin and brittle enough to break away, while the ingredient in these Ark Naturals Protection+ treats cause a release of igA in their saliva which forms a protective barrier on teeth. We went from our vet telling us we needed to get dentals soon (both dogs will turn 4 this summer, and one is a chi mix, so their teeth go bad quickly) to clean teeth using these. I was surprised, because that included the incisors and canines, not just the molars they chew with. You have to be patient, it does take time to work. You need to give it ay least a good month to start noticing any results, and at least 2 months to see some good results. The smell is a little different...they have meat flavoring and clove in them among other things, so that's an interesting scent combo. Haha But it's not horrific, and you get used to it. It was just a surprise to me at first. They do work, though, so no complaints. My dogs have fresh breath, clean teeth, and the dogs didn't have any tummy issues, etc. with them. If you're wondering why I don't just brush their teeth, I have RA pretty bad, so my hands cramp up and hurt trying to get in my chi's tiny mouth with a brush. The treat combo I discussed above is my workaround, but I do try to get in there every now and then on one of my "good" days. This combo can be expensive depending on how many dogs you have, but it's definitely cheaper than dentals! Also better not to do anesthesia if you don't have to. Now that we have pretty clean teeth here, I'm considering maybe dropping the ProDen Plaque Off chews since the dogs aren't that excited about them, and will keep going with these. It would be interesting to see how well they help prevent plaque and tartar on their own. For now, I definitely recommend these, and I signed up for the monthly subscription for the bigger bags. I think my dogs would completely freak out if I missed giving any. They can be pricey in the small bags at retail stores, but you might want to get a small bag first to sample and make sure they agree with your dogs and they like the flavor. Hope they work well for you also if you try them!
Review: Mini size my Chihuahua loves, fresher breath and tartar holding steady - Size/Bag: Mini, 4 oz Dog: 5-lb Chihuahua Routine: 1 chew nightly as a bedtime treat I started these as a nightly “brushless” treat and my Chihuahua looks forward to them. The mini size is perfect for a tiny jaw, he actually chews them instead of gulping. After making this part of our routine, his breath is noticeably fresher. At our last vet visit, I was told his tartar hasn’t gotten any worse since the prior appointment, which lines up with what I’m seeing. Pros Toy-breed friendly size; easy to chew My dog loves the taste (no coaxing needed) Breath smells better within our nightly routine Vet noted no new tartar progression since starting Cons / Watch-outs These are an adjunct, not a replacement for brushing or pro cleanings They need to be chewed to work, if your dog is a gulper, supervise or hold one end At one per day, a 4-oz bag can go quickly Bottom line: As a daily, low-effort add-on, these have been a win: my Chihuahua enjoys them, his breath is better, and tartar has held steady between checkups. I’ll keep them in our bedtime routine and update if anything changes.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ They work!
*by A***R on January 18, 2026*

My dog is a 14 year old mid-sized mix breed. We are not going to subject him to anesthesia to clean his teeth and they aren't great - he had some wicked bad breath. We started giving him one of these every day and it has been a game changer! No more rotten breath and he absolutely loves them - when he gets one, he trots off to his favorite spot to sit and eat it. I have these on a scheduled delivery so he never runs out. 100% recommend!
