Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is Biotrate Technology, and how does it work?
Ans: Biotrate Technology is a scientifically formulated approach that alters the oral environment to fight bacteria. It chelates calcium, magnesium, and iron to break down biofilm where bacteria live, while limiting bacterial food sources to inhibit growth and reduce tartar accumulation.
Q2: Can the spray be used on both dogs and cats?
Ans: Yes, the formula is designed for use in both dogs and cats. The dosage is adjusted by weight: cats and small dogs under 20 lbs receive one spray per side twice daily, while larger dogs over 20 lbs receive two sprays per side twice daily.
Q3: How often should the dental spray be applied?
Ans: Apply twice daily, with the appropriate number of sprays based on your pet's weight. Consistent twice-daily use supports the best results in plaque control, tartar reduction, and breath freshening as part of a regular at-home dental care routine.
Q4: Is the formula safe with no harmful additives?
Ans: Yes, the spray is xylitol-free, alcohol-free, and chlorhexidine-free. This makes it a safer choice for daily oral care without exposing your pet to ingredients that may be toxic or unsuitable for prolonged use across different breeds and ages.
Q5: Does the product require rinsing after spraying?
Ans: No, the spray is rinseless. After applying directly to the teeth and gums, no rinsing is required. The leave-on formula continues to work to control plaque, tartar, and bacterial growth between brushings or other dental care.
Q6: How does the product help freshen breath?
Ans: The zinc chloride content helps neutralize odor-causing bacteria, while Biotrate Technology breaks down biofilm where bacteria thrive. Together, these actions reduce the source of bad breath at the bacterial level rather than masking odors with fragrance.
Q7: Can the spray replace toothbrushing?
Ans: It can serve as an effective alternative to toothbrushing for pets who do not tolerate it. However, it is recommended to combine it with toothpaste or a water additive for a complete oral care routine and the best long-term dental health.
Q8: Is it safe for puppies and kittens?
Ans: The product is generally formulated for dogs and cats of various ages. However, consult your veterinarian before using on very young puppies or kittens to ensure safe use during developmental stages. Always follow professional guidance for specific health needs.
Q9: How quickly will dental improvement be visible?
Ans: Results vary based on consistency of use and your pet's existing dental condition. Twice-daily application as directed supports a gradual reduction in plaque and tartar buildup. Consult your veterinarian if no improvement is observed after several weeks of consistent use.
Q10: How should the bottle be stored at home?
Ans: Store at room temperature in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight. Keep the bottle tightly closed after each use and out of reach of children and other animals to prevent accidental ingestion or contamination.
