Using the Tropiclean Oral Hygiene Care Kit for your small or medium dog is easy. First, put a small amount of the Brushing Gel on either the TripleFlex™ Toothbrush or the Gentle Finger Brush. If your dog has sensitive gums or is afraid of toothbrushes, start with the Gentle Finger Brush. Gently hold your dog's mouth open and brush their teeth in a circular motion. Try to cover all surfaces of the teeth with the brush. For the best results, brush your dog's teeth at least a few times a week. Remember, this product is going through a packaging change, so don't be surprised if you receive a different - looking package. Store the kit in a cool, dry place to keep the products in good condition. If your dog shows any signs of discomfort during brushing, stop and consult your vet.
