good idea - bad execution

I tried one of these and the glove broke where the brush attaches and that made for a pretty easy clean up. The brush pad is also attached too far down the finger so it doesn't really sit on top of the finger pad - it's very difficult to control where you brush and impossible to get all the way to the back of the dog's mouth. .

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Update Availability

Easier than other options

My dog still hates it. lol I've tried everything and this is the easiest way to brush your teeth. I like full gloves because they keep my hands from getting dirty and slobbering. I wish they were different sizes. I have very slim arms so they are big for me but still decent. I could see someone with big hands struggling. The hub arms, which are thicker than mine but the same length, fit perfectly.

Pros
  • Test for a year
Cons
  • Vulgarity

I wouldn't recommend it for cats

I can't really recommend it for cats because a cat's natural instinct is to move its mouth up and down. At least that's what my cat did, putting you at risk of being (accidentally) bitten. Also, the glove needs to be fairly snug to keep the "brushing" part from slipping. My hands are pretty small so the "brushes" part didn't stay in place making it difficult to get the brushes onto my teeth. I will look for brushes with rubber fingers.

Pros
  • GOLS certificate
Cons
  • Some minor things

With these gloves, it is very easy to get in and clean the cat's teeth.

These gloves go in very easily and clean the cat's teeth - I can feel where I'm brushing which helps a lot. I just wish they were cheaper. I paid a little over a dollar for a glove. They appear to be reusable, but the one I used already has a hole in it (not surprising since I put it in my cat's mouth) so I don't know how much use I'll get from each glove. However, of the brushes I have tried, these have been the best in terms of effectiveness and my cat tolerated the brushing well.

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Useless features

Should be fine if you take your time with cats.

This works better than a toothbrush because you can be gentler on the kitten and control the pressure. I would recommend that you do this slowly when brushing your cat's teeth for the first time. My cat got scared and scratched me very hard trying to jump out of my hands. Don't be too ambitious and try to extract the back molars the first time, like I did. I would recommend that you slowly take it over your mouth, starting with a small dab of toothpaste on your front teeth. It's actually pretty

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Like that

Scissors and brushes for dental care

Ineffective to use as gloves. But I cut off 2 bristle fingers right where they meet the glove and use them as finger brushes. This works very well for my small dogs as it gives me great tactile sensations and they are more comfortable with that less intrusion into their cheeks. The only problem is that after 4-5 uses the bristles loosen and the fingers have to be discarded and replaced. But at least I get 2 per glove. If Petrodex were smart they would improve the ability of the bristles toโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Negative impression

My dogs prefer this to a toothbrush - more personal!

These gloves are the best idea since the toothbrush! LAUGH OUT LOUD. The addition of built-in bristles on opposite fingers really helps you "feel" what you're doing and really cleans your pup's teeth. The big plus is that your hands stay dry and free of toothpaste. My dogs don't mind brushing like this, not even close to using a brush - I think because it's more personal to them; Dogs think you're interacting with them, not just sticking a foreign object in their mouth. At least for me the only

Pros
  • Weight

Works great on my kitty!

These gloves work great! I use them to brush my kitten's teeth and he is about 4 months old. I started brushing his teeth when I read online that Maine Coons are prone to gingivitis/periodontitis. Since I found out about this I have been brushing his teeth every other day with these gloves along with virbac toothpaste. The only thing I will say is that you should be careful when using flavored toothpaste (bird flavored Virbak)! My kitty loves the taste of Virbak and took a few bites off myโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Long delivery time
