SayGrace VetCare Recipe Dental Care

FOR DOGS WHO DESERVE CLEANER TEETH AND FRESHER BREATH

Over 80% of dogs over the age of three suffer from some form of dental disease, and in most cases it advances quietly until a vet visit makes it visible. SayGrace VetCare Recipe Dental Care combines Freshly Prepared Hydrolysed Turkey (29.5%) processed through Freshtrusion HDP with the proprietary Plaque Defence blend, a five-ingredient combination of Sodium Hexametaphosphate (6,150mg/kg), Seaweed, Peppermint, Cranberry and Green Tea Extract. In a 12-week feeding study by Dr Des Groome MVB MBS, 93% of owners saw a visible improvement in their dog's oral health.

Why it's a great choice

• Plaque Defence blend: Five ingredients work synergistically: Sodium Hexametaphosphate (6,150mg/kg) prevents mineral buildup on teeth, Seaweed reduces plaque and tartar through antibacterial activity, Peppermint inhibits oral pathogens and freshens breath, Cranberry prevents bacterial adhesion to teeth and gums, and Green Tea Extract reduces collagenase activity to protect periodontal tissue.

• Turkey collagen peptides for gum health: At 3.0% collagen, this recipe delivers the highest collagen content in the SayGrace VetCare range, with hydrolysed turkey collagen peptides shown in canine models to improve gingival microcirculation, reduce inflammation and support tissue regeneration.

• Freshtrusion HDP for antimicrobial peptide production: With 69% of peptides below 0.5kDa, this recipe delivers an ideal amino acid supply for gum cell renewal, collagen synthesis and the production of antimicrobial peptides that reinforce the oral immune barrier and reduce harmful bacteria.

• MOS and FOS prebiotics for breath odour: FOS (175mg/kg) and MOS (50mg/kg) selectively promote non-pathogenic oral bacteria, reducing volatile sulphur compound production associated with halitosis and supporting a healthier, better-balanced oral microbiome.

Key benefits for your Dog

• 93% owner-reported improvement: In an independent 12-week feeding trial conducted by Dr Des Groome MVB MBS of Kildare Vet Surgery, 93% of owners reported visible improvement in their dog's oral health, with reductions in halitosis, plaque build-up and gum inflammation.

• Tartar and stain prevention: Sodium Hexametaphosphate (6,150mg/kg) chelates calcium to prevent the formation of mineral deposits on teeth, reducing tartar accumulation and extrinsic staining as part of the daily diet rather than requiring separate dental products.

• Antibacterial oral environment: Cranberry proanthocyanidins prevent Streptococcus mutans adhesion to teeth and gums, Green Tea EGCG reduces collagenase activity to protect periodontal tissue, and Peppermint inhibits oral pathogen growth, all contributing to a cleaner oral environment.

• Hypoallergenic grain-free formula: Based on hydrolysed turkey, this recipe avoids common dietary triggers while providing 21% protein and 356kcal/100g, making it suitable for dogs with food sensitivities who also need targeted dental support.

Recommended for adult dogs with early-stage dental disease, persistent bad breath, visible plaque or tartar build-up, or any dog whose owner wants daily nutrition to work harder for oral health.
