Dental sticks are hard, chewy, textured treats that are made to improve your dog’s oral health. The coarse texture of the treats will help reduce plaque and tartar buildup between your dog’s teeth while giving them an enjoyable experience like any other flavoured treat would. Most DentaSticks are designed to be fed to your dogs every day and a lot of them actually provide a lot of added benefits like vitamins, collagen and other supplements. It is important to keep the size of your dog in mind when picking the right dental sticks.
Pedigree Dentasticks Small and Medium
For medium breeds like Patterdale Terriers, the small or medium versions of the Pedrigree Brand DENTASTIX are a great option to keep their teeth clean. They also come in a larger size that are made for bigger breeds.

The added benefits of chewing on a DentaStix on the daily are immeasurable; not only the oral health of your terrier will improve but they will also be receiving the added nutritional benefits as well.

Benefits of Dentasticks
As great as dental sticks are to clean your dog’s teeth and improve the condition of their tiny mouths, that isn’t their only purpose. Dental treats are versatile chews that can also be used as rewards during training and even as tools of brief entertainment so that your pet can keep busy chewing away for a little while while enjoying the taste and texture of their treat. Some of these can even be combined with treat dispenser devices like the KONG REWARDS BALLS to extend the time of entertainment and fun and fooling your dog into thinking they’re eating tasty treats when in reality, they’re kind of brushing their own teeth!
