Maintaining your pet’s dental health is crucial to their overall well-being. One of the leading culprits of poor oral hygiene in pets is dental plaque, also known as dental biofilm. This sticky substance forms on your pet’s teeth, composed of bacteria and fungi, and can eventually harden into tartar. Over time, this build-up can cause more than just bad breath—it can lead to gingivitis, tooth decay, and even tooth loss. 


Luckily, Oratene® Brushless Oral Care offers a simple, effective solution to keeping your pet’s teeth clean and healthy without the struggle of brushing. Powered by two advanced enzyme systems, LP3 and MD2, Oratene® fights plaque and bacteria while freshening breath and promoting a healthy mouth environment for your furry friend.

Oratene’s Unique Enzyme Formula: Proven Ingredients for Superior Pet Dental Care

What sets Oratene® apart from other pet dental products is its one-of-a-kind combination of two enzyme systems: the LP3 Enzyme System and the MD2 Enzyme System. Together, these systems provide superior dental health benefits by effectively inhibiting the growth of bacteria that cause plaque biofilm. This not only prevents the formation of tartar but also helps maintain the natural balance of oral flora—promoting good bacteria while targeting harmful microorganisms.

The antibacterial power of these enzymes works by breaking down the plaque biofilm that adheres to the teeth, reducing the risk of dental diseases like gingivitis and periodontal disease. Oratene® doesn’t just treat the symptoms—it goes to the source, offering a preventative solution that supports your pet’s overall health. 

Additionally, Oratene® enhances your pet’s natural defenses by boosting and replenishing saliva’s protective properties. Saliva plays a key role in defending against bacteria, and by supporting its natural functions, Oratene® keeps your pet’s mouth healthy and balanced.

The MD2 Enzyme System: Tackling Plaque and Preventing Tooth Decay

The MD2 Enzyme System in Oratene® is specifically designed to target plaque and prevent it from hardening into tartar. Two key enzymes—Dextranase and Mutanase—work together to break down plaque at the molecular level, ensuring your pet’s teeth remain clean and free from decay.

  • Dextranase: This enzyme catalyzes the breakdown of dextran, a polysaccharide found in plaque that binds to teeth and promotes tartar formation. By hydrolyzing dextran, dextranase helps prevent tooth decay and keeps plaque from adhering to the teeth.
  • Mutanase: Known for rendering plaque water soluble, mutanase prevents it from hardening into tartar, making it easier for your pet’s natural oral defenses to wash it away.

Together, these enzymes are essential for preventing the build-up of plaque and the associated risks of poor oral hygiene. By using Oratene® regularly, you can help ensure that your pet’s teeth stay healthy, reducing the need for more invasive treatments like dental scaling or extractions down the line.

Stress-Free At-Home Dental Care for Your Pet

One of the most challenging aspects of pet care is maintaining their dental hygiene. Many pet owners struggle with brushing their pet’s teeth, leading to frustration for both the owner and the pet. With Oratene® Brushless Oral Care, however, maintaining your pet’s oral health doesn’t have to turn into a wrestling match. 

All Oratene® products are designed with ease of use in mind, containing veterinarian-approved enzymes that clean teeth, freshen breath, and balance oral flora—all without the need for brushing. The brushless gel and water additive formulas allow you to simply apply the product directly to your pet’s mouth or water bowl, ensuring that their teeth get cleaned in the most stress-free way possible. 

By choosing Oratene®, you’re not just providing your pet with effective dental care—you’re also giving them a more comfortable and enjoyable experience, reducing the anxiety often associated with at-home dental treatments.
