Dentagen is a novel approach to dental plaque inhibition. It contains RF2, a natural anti-plaque compound that prevents oral bacteria from producing plaque. Dentagen Chews come in a monthly pack size of 14 x chews (given every other day) which are highly palatable.

In the UK, 87% of dogs and 70% of cats over the age of three are affected by periodontal disease. Dental plaque is the major causative agent for periodontal disease. Current preventative measures rely on mechanical, enzymatic or anti-bacterial methods to reduce the amount of plaque on the teeth.

Dentagen is different. It contains RF2, the surface biofilm control agent. RF2 is a novel approach to plaque inhibition. Formation of dental biofilm begins with the attachment of free-floating (planktonic) microorganisms to the surface of the teeth. This facilitates the arrival of other bacteria to build the matrix that holds the biofilm together. Once colonisation has begun, the biofilm grows through a combination of cell division and recruitment to provide an encapsulated micro-colony of cells. This is what causes plaque and tartar to build up. Dentagen modifies the membrane of oral bacteria and prevents them from producing plaque.

Mechanical (diet or brushing) methods will effectively remove biofilm. However re-formation begins immediately afterwards and unless these measures are performed regularly, significant plaque formation occurs rapidly.

Antibacterial or enzymatic approaches focus on the removal of the normal planktonic cells present in the mouth, affecting its homeostasis and with continuous ingestion can potentially have a detrimental effect on the intestinal flora. Again biofilm formation begins immediately after the treatment.

What to do if your item does not arrive within expected time-scales 

The vast majority of our orders will arrive within the time-scales listed above once they have left our warehouse. However if you order has not been delivered within these expected time-frames after it has been despatched we ask that you please first check with your local post office and follow the guidelines below:

Less than 4-5 working days after your order was processed:
Please keep waiting for your order to arrive as it is most likely still in transit and may have been held up by an incomplete address, missing postcode or circumstances out of our control such as adverse weather conditions or strike action.

5-10 working days after your order was processed:
Your mail is now officially delayed and our advice is to check with neighbours that could have taken in the parcel on your behalf.  If your item requires a signature and no-one is available to sign for it, the postman or courier will take your item back to your local delivery office.  The postman should leave you a card to inform you of this. 

15 working days after your order was processed:
Once 15 working days have passed since despatch, Royal Mail class your item as lost and we are then able to send out a replacement or to give you a full refund. Please send us an email complete with your order reference number and confirming that you have never received the item.  We will then take up this issue with the Royal Mail for compensation and your letter will be used as evidence. We cannot refund or replace items that the Royal Mail has lost until 15 working days have passed.

Please ensure your delivery address is correct when placing an order.  If you require a signature, we advise you choose a delivery address where someone is guaranteed to be in to sign for your order, such as your work address.  We cannot take responsibility for undelivered items caused by incorrect address details.
 

Returns Policy:

Medications:

We are not able to allow return of veterinary medicinal products because:

a.    We believe it is wrong and dangerous to send out stock which has been returned by another pet owner. These items could have been stored incorrectly or worse tampered with.

b.    As a licensed supplier of veterinary medications we are not allowed to. The Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons and Veterinary Medicines Directorate govern this. 

c.    As a business we do all that we can to bring low cost vet products to our customers - we cannot afford to give refunds where we have to dispose of the products. As a result, we advise that customers only order the medication they require, in case their pet’s medication needs change.
