How It Works

"Dental treats or dental chews work with mechanical action similar to how your tooth brush works, where it will scrape the surface of the tooth and help brush away plaque and tartar that can accumulate that can lead to more serious problems. So, as a veterinarian, I look for a product that has a flexible chewy texture that's going to allow a dog's teeth to sink in up to the gum line. It's going to lead to a lot better oral health for your dog." - Dr. Bradley Quest

How do you know which is the right dental chew size for your dog? As opposed to most dental chews that are designed only based on size and weight of a dog, GREENIES dental chew's design is based on scientific data on biometrics, which analyzes canine's unique physiology such as tooth position, skull shape, weight and bite force. Biometric research shows that texture and shape of a dental chew has proven to be as important as size when it comes to the way dogs chew. That's why GREENIES® dental chews come in four sizes from Large to TEENIE™ dental chews that fit any dog's needs perfectly.
