DentaMax™ Daily Dental Powder for Dogs & Cats

Natural Plaque Control and Tartar Support Without the Daily Brushing Battle

Plaque does not begin when you see tartar. It begins silently below the gumline.

  • Bacteria accumulates
  • Biofilm forms
  • Mineralisation hardens plaque into tartar
  • Gums inflame
  • Bad Breath worsens

Left unmanaged, plaque and tartar buildup can contribute to periodontal disease, which is one of the most common health conditions in adult dogs and cats.

Daily brushing works. But consistent brushing is difficult for most households with pets.

DentaMax™ was formulated for the reality of modern pet care.

What Is DentaMax™?

DentaMax™ is a premium daily dental powder for dogs and cats formulated to support:

• Reduced plaque accumulation
• Slower tartar formation
• Improved oral odour
• Healthier gum tissue
• Long-term oral balance

It contains one active ingredient: 100% pure Ascophyllum nodosum (North Atlantic kelp).

No fillers.
No charcoal.
No synthetic mineral binders.
No artificial flavourings.
No cosmetic additives.

One defined mechanism. One clinically studied species.

How DentaMax™ Works

DentaMax™ works systemically.

When ingested daily:

  1. Bioactive compounds are absorbed through digestion

  2. These compounds circulate through the body

  3. They are excreted in saliva

  4. The oral environment becomes less favourable to plaque adherence

Unlike surface-only ingredients that require direct tooth contact, Ascophyllum nodosum works from within the body and supports the oral environment through saliva.

This mechanism has been studied internationally in finished veterinary dental formulations containing the same active species.

Results develop gradually with consistent daily use.

Most pet parents report:

• Noticeable breath improvement within weeks
• Gradual tartar softening within 4–8 weeks

Consistency is essential.

Veterinary Perspective

Preventive dental care plays a central role in the long-term health of canines and felines. Veterinary professionals consistently emphasise daily plaque management as the foundation of prevention.

Daily plaque control is critical in preventing periodontal disease. Systemic support can be a practical adjunct in households where brushing is inconsistent.

The Science Behind Ascophyllum nodosum

Ascophyllum nodosum has been evaluated in veterinary dental applications for its role in:

• Reducing plaque index scores
• Slowing calculus accumulation
• Supporting oral hygiene maintenance

Recognition applies to specific finished products studied under clinical conditions. DentaMax™ uses the same botanical species responsible for those outcomes.

This approach addresses plaque formation earlier in the process — before mineralisation occurs.

Understanding how systemic dental powders work is critical when comparing ingredient strategies.

Why Simplicity Matters

Many dental powders combine multiple ingredients, such as:

• Sodium hexametaphosphate (SHMP)
• Activated charcoal
• Herbal breath agents
• Artificial flavourings

More ingredients can create marketing appeal. But they do not necessarily improve biological function.

Surface-dependent ingredients such as SHMP require sustained contact with tooth surfaces to bind calcium effectively. In powdered form, that contact time is limited.

DentaMax™ is intentionally single-ingredient designed for consistent daily systemic support rather than short-lived surface exposure, prioritising clarity over clutter.

What to Expect

Weeks 1–2: Improved breath freshness.

Weeks 3–4: Gradual tartar softening.

Weeks 6–8: Visible reduction in plaque accumulation.

Individual response varies. Daily use is key.
