How to handle dog tartar?

Expert Answer

For mild dog tartar, brushing can remove it. Regularly use dental powder and mouthwash to clear debris and prevent formation, and offer chew sticks to clean while chewing.

For severe tartar, brushing rarely works; a veterinary ultrasound cleaning is needed to fully remove it.
