Animal Essentials Dental Support Soft Chews combine sustainably harvested organic kelp and five enzymes for daily plaque-and-breath support in dogs and cats. The formula supports the oral environment through saliva, without depending on hard or abrasive chewing. The enzymes have distinct roles: amylase helps break down starch, cellulase acts on plant fiber, and protease and papain act on proteins in food residue. Lysozyme acts on a structural component of bacterial cell walls.

Natural salmon and tuna flavors make this a savory addition to your dog or cat’s daily care, alongside brushing and regular veterinary dental visits.

Whole Herbs, Real Benefits
Organic Kelp
A mineral-rich kelp species known for its ability to naturally reduce plaque and tartar. Its bioactive compounds—including fucoidans and alginates—circulate through the saliva to disrupt biofilm, soften hardened plaque, and help inhibit the formation of new tartar. The seaweed also provides beneficial trace minerals that support immune and metabolic health.
Organic Kelp
Lysozyme
A naturally occurring enzyme that helps break down the cell walls of harmful bacteria in the mouth. Lysozyme supports oral hygiene by targeting bacteria, helping manage bad breath, and preventing the early stages of plaque formation.
Lysozyme
Amylase
A carbohydrate-digesting enzyme that breaks down starches into simple sugars. Amylase can help reduce the buildup of fermentable residues in the mouth, which helps minimize bacterial growth and odor.
Amylase
Cellulase
A fiber-digesting enzyme that aids in the breakdown of plant material in your pet’s diet. By improving overall digestion, cellulase can help reduce gastrointestinal fermentation and associated oral odor, all while also supporting general wellness.
Cellulase
Protease
A protein-digesting enzyme that can help break down food particles trapped between teeth and along the gumline. By targeting leftover protein debris, protease helps minimize oral bacteria and supports healthy gums.
Protease
Papain
A natural enzyme from papaya that breaks down proteins and supports tissue health. Papain helps loosen debris on teeth and supports healthy inflammatory balance in oral tissues.
Papain

Compare the full ingredient panels before combining products, including repeated kelp or enzymes. Review the routine with your veterinarian for pets with medical conditions, prescribed diets or medications.

Kelp naturally contains iodine, so veterinary review is important with thyroid disease, thyroid medication or an iodine-restricted diet. Review the full formula for sensitivities; lysozyme may be egg-derived, and papain is papaya-derived. Safe use in pregnant animals or animals intended for breeding has not been proven. If your pet’s condition worsens or does not improve, discontinue use and consult your veterinarian.

not much of a chew. My dog swallows whole. no dental benefit since doesn't not chew product.

Thanks for sharing your experience! Our Dental Support Soft Chews aren’t designed to clean the teeth through the physical act of chewing like a traditional dental chew.

Sea-Dent works through the saliva. The formula helps raise the pH level of the saliva, creating an oral environment that is less favorable for plaque buildup. It also combines kelp with five functional enzymes—lysozyme, amylase, cellulase, papain and protease—to further support clean teeth, healthy gums and fresh breath.

Because the benefit doesn’t depend on mechanically scrubbing the teeth, your dog can still receive the intended dental support even if they swallow the soft chew whole. Consistent daily use is important, with visible changes typically seen after about 15–20 days of continuous use.

Extremely Effective

Very effective and affordable. I've been using for only 2 days and both my dogs swollen red gum and bad smell issues are pretty much gone away. Super easy to use as I top it on their food. They have no issue with the soft chew smell or taste. The tartar is still there but we'll see how it goes when using for a longer time.

The chews seemed like a great idea (better than trying to brush a cat's teeth!). Unfortunately, however, I haven't been able to coax my cat to eat them.

Easy to use to keep dog's teeth clean

Years ago a board certified veterinary dentist recommended this to me for my dog. I've been using it ever since. It does keep the tartar from building up. You just give them a chew or two each day. Easy and effective.

Helps teeth

My three year old has been using it for a month now and we can see the difference. He still has dog breath but much of the plaque is gone. He hates having his teeth brushed so this really helps make me feel better.

Perfect teeth

I use this every day as a supplement to my dogs diet. My vet said she should be a model for a dog with perfect teeth. She's 7 years old and no plaque build up.

Easy to use

This comes in a very small pouch but you use very little of it each time you put it on your dog food. I have friends that recommended this product and I have been using it for about a month. It seems my dogs teeth are whiter and I can’t find any real evidence of tartar. Time will tell, and if my dogs teeth remain this way, it’s well worth it to avoid putting her to sleep to do her teeth. And the amount I put in the food is so small my dog doesn’t even notice it.

It Really Works! -With a Small Bag, the Supply Lasts a Very Long Time!-

I was skeptical because I had given my dog many products that claimed to help with her teeth and none of them worked. Sea-Dent is truly different. After just a few weeks, I could see a real difference in the amount of tartar on her teeth. The bag lasts a very long time because you only need a few chews per day. Highly recommend for any dog owner!

I love these!

They’ve made daily oral care so much easier for my dog, especially since brushing isn’t his favorite. The soft texture means he happily eats them, and over time I’ve noticed his teeth look cleaner. It’s great to have a gentle, natural option that supports plaque control and gum health without any harsh ingredients. These chews are now part of our daily routine!

Clean teeth are the best

My pup loves eating these chews, and it keeps her teeth nice and clean!

Great Product for My Dog!

I was a little worried that my dog wouldn't like the flavor, but he dives right into his meal with the chews sprinkled on top. I've been using for over a month and already his teeth are benefiting. When my friend (who has a Golden a year older than mine) told me that's what she uses, I wanted to try it as her dog's teeth are very white and have no visible tartar even though she doesn't brush her teeth. I brush my boy's teeth, but still was starting to see a little tartar buildup and I wanted to avoid that. This is a GREAT addition to his daily needs. I will continue to use this product!

I had to see it to believe it

My 3.5 year old 65-lb golden doodle had brown plaque on his rear molars. I read about this and figured it wouldn’t work, but thought it was worth a try anyway. Within a month, his plaque was almost completely gone! If was truly amazing. The bag is small but a few chews with his food was all it took. The bag lasts months. I still have about a half a bag left and now plan to continue every other day. Finally a supplement that very obviously works.

EXCELLENT for Fighting and Getting Rid of Plaque on your Doggy's Teeth - HIGHLY RECOMMEND

I recommend this to everyone I know. One of my friend's just recently thanked me because his doggy's breath went from gross to fresh in about a month. It truly gets rid of plaque and helps doggies teeth and gums. My friend introduced me to this back in 2017 after her 14 year old dog's teeth saw a huge improvement (her vet couldn't believe it), so I have been using it on my dog every since. My dog's breath is perfect now, unless she has a tummy ache. This stuff is the best. I break it up and sprinkle it on my dog's food in the morning, it doesn't have a strong scent at all. AND my dog has a very sensitive nose AND sensitive tummy and if this hurt her in any way or she was turned off by it, I would never use it - but I've been using it for years. HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend. I never want to put her under to get her teeth cleaned unless I totally have to (so far, I don't have to and I do NOT brush her teeth).
