We thought our dog's teeth would need to be cleaned by the vet -- an expensive proposition! But, as luck had it, we bought him a Hartz Tooth Scrubber for Christmas, and it has eliminated almost all of the tartar. It's an oblong shaped chew toy, with tightly spaced wheels containing tiny rubber teeth. As he chews, the wheels turn and "scrub" his teeth and gums. He loves chewing it, and for about $4, it saved us a lot of money.
This toy almost killed our dog. Not well made. She didn't have it for long before the end popped off and she accidentally swallowed it. It got lodged in her intestines causing her to get violently ill. Two surgeries later, she's on the mend but not out of the woods yet. Please don't buy this toy - the multiple parts can come apart and are just the right size to get lodged in your dogs intestines and cause HUGE problems.
