Our take

Our verdict
Virbac's C.E.T. Enzymatic Toothpaste is a sensible first toothpaste for a dog new to brushing. The listing says it contains no harsh foaming agents and can be swallowed without rinsing, which matters because dogs cannot spit. Virbac's own instructions start with letting the pet taste it, the same first step PDSA recommends. The enzyme system is described by the maker as helping to control bacterial plaque; read that as a preventive claim, not a treatment for existing dental disease.
The variant trap: this is the poultry toothpaste on its own. Virbac also sells a fish flavour and an oral hygiene kit, and the listing title says 70 g while its details give 54 g, so check the size before ordering.
Using it
Put a pea-sized amount on your finger for the first sessions. Once your dog accepts it, use it with a finger brush and later a dog toothbrush, working along the gum line. PDSA advises brushing daily or at least three times a week.
