Virbac C.E.T. VEGGIEDENT Flex Tartar Control Chews for Dogs - Extra

Our review of the Virbac C.E.T. VEGGIEDENT Flex chews finds them best suited for dog owners looking for a plant-based dental snack that combines oral care with joint and digestion support. These extra small chews are notable for a unique Z-shape that reaches the whole mouth, a prebiotic to support gut health, and a novel BiovaFlex eggshell membrane ingredient aimed at joint flexibility. For small dogs that accept firm chews, this product delivers cleaning, fresher breath and supplemental joint care in a single treat.

Key Features

• Three-way performance: Cleans teeth, freshens breath and supports proper digestion with a single daily chew to simplify routine care.
• Innovative Z-shape: The unique shape helps the chew reach front and back teeth and provides contact across tooth surfaces for mechanical tartar reduction.
• Plant-based ingredients: Formulated without animal-derived ingredients and gluten-free, these chews are easily digestible for sensitive dogs.
• Prebiotic for gut support: Contains a prebiotic intended to help maintain intestinal well-being and support proper digestion.
• BiovaFlex eggshell membrane: Includes an eggshell membrane ingredient shown in studies to support joint health and flexibility in dogs.

Who It's For

These chews suit owners of very small or extra small dogs who want a daily dental treat that also offers digestion and joint support. The product is a good fit for households preferring plant-based, gluten-free ingredients and for dogs that enjoy firm, structured chews.

Owners of very young puppies, dogs that prefer soft treats, or dogs with extreme sensitivity to hard chews should look elsewhere, as some dogs find these chews quite firm. Those seeking a single-purpose, soft dental wipe or toothpaste alternative may prefer different formats.
