The Missing Link Review | Smartmouth Dental Chews
We are pretty lucky when it comes to our pets’ dental health. Navy tolerates brushing and generally has pretty clean teeth. During her last checkup the only thing our vet mentioned about Navy’s teeth was to be a little cautious going forward with what she was chewing on. She had some wearing on her teeth that was normal, but over time it could lead to issues. They recommended we try giving her softer things to chew on.
Duke on the other hand cannot stand to have anything in his mouth besides a treat. We’ve attempted to brush his teeth a number of times. Let’s just say it does not go over well.
We were incredibly excited to try the Missing Link’s line of Smartmouth Dental Chews with Duke and Navy. Not only did these treats promise to keep their mouths’ clean and breath fresh, they also support joint health and more.
WHAT’S IN A BAG
The Missing Link Smartmouth Dental Chews comes in in packs of 14 or 28 and range in size from petite/extra small to large/extra large. These multifunctional treats do not just clean your pup’s teeth, they are packed with balanced Omegas to promote healthy skin and a shiny coat and glucosamine to support hip and joint health.
These are hard chews and meant to be long lasting. They are made with natural ingredients and no artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives. They have a unique ridge that acts like a bristle as your dog chews. The Smartmouth Dental chews are packed with Stay-C™, a patented form of Vitamin C to help fight plaque and tarter buildup while your dog chews.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS
No shocker here! Duke was instantly obsessed with his Missing Link Smartmouth Dental Chew. The treats are hard, but not too hard. Duke really took to his new treat, putting the chew between his paws and chewing on it using his hard to reach back teeth.
Navy, on the other hand, was a bit more cautious. Navy tends to be more wary when trying new things. She takes her time sniffing and carefully chewing before she really dives in on a new treat. Though it took her a few minutes to warm up to her new chew, once she realized she liked it, there was no going back!
FINAL THOUGHTS
Yup, we are officially fans of Missing Link Smartmouth Dental Chews. We’ve finally found a healthy dental chew! We’ve tried a few other dental treats with Duke and Navy and let’s just say they don’t sit well with them. A lot of dental treats on the market have a lot of junk in them. We loved that Navy and Duke can get their supplement and dental benefits all in one treat. It’s a win-win! We will definitely be purchasing again.
Like we’ve said before, nothing beats manually brushing your dog’s teeth. But if there is something we can give our pups that have health benefits and help keep their teeth clean between brushing, we are on board!
