It is a fine once-daily dental powder formulated to support everyday plaque control, cleaner-looking teeth and fresher breath as part of your dog’s oral-care routine.
Sprinkle the label amount over wet or dry food once daily: ¼ teaspoon up to 10kg, ½ teaspoon from 10–25kg and 1 teaspoon over 25kg.
The label gives teaspoons rather than grams. Weigh one level teaspoon of your powder and enter that figure in the calculator for an estimate. Pack size alone cannot give a reliable number of days.
Daily home care targets soft plaque. Hard yellow or brown tartar is firmly mineralised and may need professional veterinary dental treatment.
Follow the label. Ask your vet before use if your dog has a thyroid condition, is pregnant or nursing, or is receiving veterinary treatment.

A 2018 randomised, placebo-controlled dog study tested treats containing Ascophyllum nodosum for 90 days. It assessed new plaque and calculus buildup after dental cleaning. The tested treats were not Plaque Defence, so this does not prove identical results for this powder.
