| For your pet's good oral health: regular checkups and scalings (removal of plaque and calculus) by the family's veterinarian; periodic checks of the pet's mouth for bad breath and discolored, inflamed gums; a diet which generally avoids sweet or soft, sticky foods; and daily use of a natural oral cleansing compound such as Maxi-Guard®. Usage: regular visits to the family veterinarian provide you with the best guarantee that your pet's health is sound. However, you can supplement these visits with self examinations of your pet's mouth and regular use of Maxi-Guard® Oral Cleansing Gel. Maxi-Guard® may be applied to large dogs directly from the bottle applicator tip. Smaller pets, especially cats, may require, finger or swab application. Maxi-Guard® is concentrated. Apply a small quantity (pea size droplet) to each side of the mouth when treating cats. Choose the method that is easiest for you and your pet for a pleasant program of oral cleansing. Oral Cleansing Gel: Safety: Maxi-Guard®'s zinc ascorbate/sulfur amino acid formulation has been in veterinary dentistry use for over 13 years without incident. Laboratory evaluations demonstrate that dosing twice per day at the recommended small volume, will deliver considerably less Zn mg intake than recognized toxic levels or even the required daily intake from the diet. Natural oral compounds like zinc ascorbate/Taurine are generally recognized as the safest approach to oral care, especially in animals where the product is ingested. Maxi-Guard® Gel is veterinary dentistry's only alcohol free, chlorhexidine free and taste free home dental care product that works with or without brushing. Over ten years of veterinary and pet-owner approval. Safe for even small pets. Helpful Hint: for preparation and use of Maxi-Guard® Oral Cleansing Gel, open the bottle and pour in the accompanying vial of ascorbic acid. Replace applicator tip and cap. After globule drops to the bottom of the bottle, shake until dissolved. Rub or squeeze a small amount (a pea size droplet for cats) on each side above your pet's back upper teeth and gums. A natural cleansing action will distribute product to remote areas. Use daily for best results. Testimonials:

"I have been using Maxi-Guard® Oral Gel for over five years on my equine dental cases. This product does a better job than anything else I have found for healing oral lesions. I found Oral Gel especially useful on older horses with gingivitis and excessive tartar buildup around canine and incisor teeth. If I have a client apply Maxi-Guard® Oral Gel daily with a soft bristle toothbrush, within 7-14 days, the gingival lesions are healed and the tartar will not reform in this area. I also dispense Oral Gel to owners with horses that have bit sores. It seems to give almost immediate relief from discomfort and allows continued training while the lesions heal. JE, DVM, MS
Treated exotic species includes pet birds, iguanas, and snakes with stomatitis, a potentially life threatening disease. MD, DVM
Even periodic dentals did not perform the odor removing function of Maxi-Guard®. I only wish I had tried it sooner. JLS, DVM |
