ProDen PlaqueOff Powder for Cats - Plaque & Tartar Reducer, Breath Freshener, Feline Oral Care - 40g

Used for a month before my cats' annual check up. We have 3 cats, but only 2 went for the annual where I got feedback. I bought this after I noticed one of my cats showing some tooth sensitivity (spitting food out, chewing weird, acting like he couldn't swallow, or like something was stuck in his teeth). He has been on watch for gingivitis since I adopted him (around 4mo old, he is now 2). I found this on the Vet Oral Health Council list of approved items and just went for it. Once he started using it on a regular basis, I didn't see any more of the signs I had seen before, and his breath has improved somewhat. The teeth that were already a concern didn't change drastically for the cat with gingivitis, but the other teeth seem to be in good shape (crossing fingers). My other cats teeth were in perfect health, so I think this has made a noticeable difference along with brushing his teeth (the cat with the gingivitis won't allow me to brush his teeth at all). Using this in combination with brushing has given the best results, it seems. My complaints about this product are that it's such a small amount of product for a large bottle (it's about half full when you get it) and the scooper is so small it can be difficult to get out of the bottle. Giving this to 3 cats on a daily basis, we went through it in about a month. It's cheaper than dental surgery and easier than brushing their teeth, so I will continue to purchase this. Our vet who specializes in only cats supports this product as well. I will say, I've used other products like the Greenies dental treats and water additives but this seems to have given the best results in the shortest amount of time. 6/6/24 Update: Our boy who has the most severe gingivitis had to have some teeth removed last year. I wish I had started this product earlier, but I’ve been using it consistently ever since. We went for our annual checkup last week for two of our boys. For the one with the worst teeth, they said it’s not perfect, but it’s to the point that his teeth are manageable (and could stay this way if everything stayed the same) without having to do another round of surgery. I’ve also started teeth brushing whenever I can (no regular routine). When the vet checked his teeth, she said that there was little-to-no tartar! He hates toothpaste, so I started using treats like purée lickable stuff (think Churu) and it’s been working great! He’s the most fussy one of the bunch, so just being able to brush is a win to me. Another thing I’ve started using regular is a water additive. Nothing like a wildly expensive cat surgery and unpleasant recovery to make you try anything to prevent having to go thru it again. Overall, I would recommend this product again and again.

My rescue kitty was diagnosed with stomatitis and it was bad. Really bad. She's a tiny kitty anyway but she lost weight due to inability to eat. The vet said the only way to ensure full recovery was to remove all of her teeth. We definitely didn't have the money and had to start saving. In the meantime, I researched alternatives to at least give her some relief. I found Plaque Off and thought it sounded promising. After a couple of weeks of mixing it into the vitamin-enhanced broths we were able to get her to swallow, she was clearly having an easier time of swallowing. I added some pureed meat and she started putting on weight. Within two months of her taking the Plaque Off, she was back to eating shredded meats with broth! Her breath was better, her demeanor was better, and she was steadily replacing the weight she'd lost. I'm not saying the stomatitis has been healed/reversed/eradicated. I'm saying IT WORKS!!! No more ulcers or lesions in her mouth and no more landfill-in-summer breath. Yes, she still drools and, yes, she still has sensitive teeth and is unable/unwilling to eat crunchy things. She's also still skittish. However, she's happier, at a good weight, her coat is glossy and soft, and the most recent vet visit (different vet) resulted in cautious support of continuing to use the Plaque Off. Due to the dental damage, her teeth will eventually need to be pulled, but she may be able to retain some of the less damaged ones. That's another drama for a different time. All I'm concerned with is ensuring she's happy, well-fed, healthy, and remains a part of our family. Maybe trolls will find this review worth targeting but we're doing what we can for a kitty who's so sweet and (when she allows it) starved for attention and love.

Do your research before using this. I talked to my vet. I also reached out to a few other manufacturers with similar products to see if they considered this product “safe” for ferrets. The product works by softening plaque. It can start to work in as little as a week, but best results are supposedly seen a few weeks after daily use. With that said, the plaque doesn’t remove itself. I am still brushing my ferret’s teeth (not fun for either of us). I can say it does soften the plaque and make it appear white and spongey, but it still has to be scraped off. The bad part is…it makes my ferrets sick at half the cat dose. They did not vomit outright, but started having hiccups and belching up vomit onto the floor. I cut back to just a tiny pinch of product and stay on it for a week or until I see diarrhea start. I stop use once the diarrhea starts, but continue with the brushing until I see everything go back to normal. Then I rotate back on again. I will try this until the teeth look clean and gums improve. I am seeing improvement in gingivitis and gum line plaque, but the overall discoloration is still there. The main thing to note is that this product is made of seaweed and seaweed has iodine. That is why there is a precaution on the label about hyperthyroidism. I’m not a vet, but google told me diarrhea is a symptom of iodine overdose so that is what I am using as a clue, in my dosing a frequency of feeding. Also lack of appetite or vomiting can indicate too much iodine. I have noticed intermittent dosing is pretty ineffective, so I stay with consecutive days on a low dose and then quit for a week or two. I will try to continue use of this product until there is no evidence of gingivitis or red gums. I am not sure if this product will work for my needs in the long run, but I may update l later.

I've been using this for a few years. The Dentist said he may need a cleaning which is $500. total.. I tried this and his teeth look great! Tartar came off! The 40 g lasts 3 mo..One scoop a day w his wet cat food. I'm ordering more today bc I started the last bottle on 9/26/ 25. Today is 1/20/26. It's is almost gone. For $65 a year you can't go wrong. It's a great product!

One of my kitties used to have stinky breath, it's difficult to brush her teeth because she hates being held. I add one half scoop to her food every day and in less than a month I started to notice a difference. The smell of the product is a little weird but once you can get over that, it's no problem. I don't smell my cats breath anymore, therefore, it works! It is also recommended by the Veterinary Oral Health Council. I will be buying this again.

De kat eet het zonde5 problwmwn op.

Das PlaqueOff ProDen Puder ist ein tolles Produkt, das meine Katze ohne Probleme im Futter frisst. Es hilft besonders gut gegen Mundgeruch, was ein echtes Plus ist! Bei der Plaque-Reduzierung merkt man schon eine leichte Verbesserung, aber es wirkt nicht ganz so stark wie erhofft. Dennoch bin ich zufrieden, da es die Zahnpflege meiner Katze erleichtert und den Atem frischer macht. Für die tägliche Zahnhygiene eine praktische Lösung :)

He adoptado dos gatas, una d 4 años y una q va a hacer 3 años, esta última tiene gingivitis. Empecé a darles las algas para ver si mejora y prevenir en la otra gatina. Llevo poco tiempo dándoles las algas, pero las toman muy bien con la comida y si q es verdad q no les huele el aliento. Con respecto a la gingivitis creo q se llevarà más tiempo. Pero buenas sensaciones con las algas. Mucho mejor q productos químicos.

WASTE OF MONEY. Want my money back tbh.
