ProDen PlaqueOff Cat 40 g | Designed Specifically for Cats | Bad Breath, Plaque, Tartar (Packaging May Vary)

Product Information

Dogs having problems with the thyroid gland must be careful with their intake of iodine. Since kelp, including our unique ingredient, have a naturally high iodine content, we do not recommend that dogs with thyroid problems use this product. Update: The container that I originally bought, when I was giving it just to Lily, was the 180gm bottle. This size lasted at least six months when given daily to one cat. Now I buy the larger 420gm container and give it to all five of my cats each day. The 420gm container lasts me about one year when given to my five cats. How Long Will It Take Before You See Improvement In Your Cat’s Stomatitis Symptoms? Thank you for your kind words. I’m sorry to say that Lily passed away last year. Her death was sudden and unexpected, and had nothing to do with stomatitis. She was doing very well until a few days before she died, a happy, playful girl.

My cat also had a dental a few weeks ago, which was about a year after the diagnosis. I believe the dental has helped him benefit from the supplements. Loved your video and information you provided. Recently had one of our cats diagnosed with stomatitis. I noticed in the pics of your kitty’s mouth that I could not see any teeth. Have you had them removed or can I just not see them from the pic? Since we are in the early stages of treating this he has received steroid shots and lysine mixed in his food. We are doing what we can to save his teeth as he is an outdoor kitty that was previously feral, but now lives on our porch. We have three indoor cats already and it is not possible to bring him inside at this time. Since he never leaves our porch it’s not a problem to give him his meds. We are now going to add the plaqueoff to his diet thanks to your info. The only additional advice I can think to offer is this: If you are considering starting PlaqueOff then I would do it now instead of later. It takes up to eight weeks before there is improvement so the sooner you start it the better off your cat will be if she responds positively to it. Update: I just realized that I did not take another picture of Lily’s mouth and it is time for me to correct that. Here is how Lily’s mouth looks today, about two years after she started taking PlaqueOff. As you can see, it looks even better than the “eight week” picture above.What good eyes you have! Yes, we had Lily’s teeth removed. It is a last resort treatment option for cats with stomatitis and it isn’t guaranteed to help. Approximately 20% of cats continue to suffer from stomatitis after having their teeth removed, and Lily fell into this 20%. The inflammation was improved after the surgery but she still had drooling, which meant she was in too much pain to swallow her saliva. Our vet thought that our 3 yr old rescue cat had stomatitis. She has had two treatments of antibiotics and it helped. She has lost some teeth and the vet suggested having her teeth cleaned. Since this treatment is expensive, I was wondering if it was worth it or whether I should just start her on the Plaque Off and L-Lysline. She drools but does not appear to have blood in her drool and does not appear to be in pain.

Have you talked to your vet about the drooling or bad breath? It might not be the PlaqueOff causing it. I hope you are able to find relief for your cat. I am also happy to report that Lily is as healthy as she has probably ever been because of the PlaqueOff. As of this writing Lily has been on PlaqueOff for six months. The swelling and redness is almost completely gone. She is now playing with toys by catching them in her mouth, and has caught three lizards this past week alone, which tells me that her mouth feels much better. ProDen PlaqueOff® Cat Powder contains no other ingredient as mint or eucalyptus which would hide bad breath and other gum diseases. Yes, your vet is right. I was given tiny little fingertip gloves to use when I gave this to Lily. You can reuse them, since you probably won’t have enough for every day. Or, you can buy gloves in bulk, such as at Sam’s Club.I am SO sorry for the delay in approving your comments and responding to them. School got out just before you wrote and I have been busy with my children since then for the summer, which is the reason for my delay. As for your question about whether or not stomatitis is contagious, I’m afraid I can’t give you a definitive answer. It really depends on who you talk to. The woman who I adopted Lily from (she is a foster mom who has cared for hundreds of cats, some of which had stomatitis) is convinced that it is. If I remember correctly, she thinks that it is contagious when the stomatitis is active, meaning that a cat is drooling and/or bleeding from the disease. Lily’s stomatitis is controlled, and she hasn’t drooled or bled since early 2013. The next thing I would consider is the “Advanced Immune Restoration Cat Cancer Support” product above, as the company tells me that since stomatitis is an immune related issue, and the Advanced Immune product raises immune competence, it is an appropriate product for my cat. Designed for cats, but can be given to fussy dogs.Not recommended for animals being treated for hyperthyroidism. If he is an indoor only cat, don’t be afraid to have Aquiles’ teeth removed. I now have two cats without their teeth and they do not know they are missing them. They still eat grass, eat dry food and bite at me and each other while playing. Ting Tu purrs a lot more since having his teeth removed. I was reluctant at first, too, but the difference in Ting Tu’s joy of life was incredible. I had no idea he had been in so much pain.

Wiping the outside of the teeth with a Q-tip at least twice daily. This is one of the most effective ways to remove plaque before it turns into tartar. Dip the Q-tip into tuna water for flavoring to help your cat accept this procedure. I agree about raw food being the best option for all cats but especially those with stomatitis and food sensitivities. I have been working with a cat that was diagnosed with stomatitis this past July 2019. Right away, His guardian started him on a raw food diet with some herbs and he has not had any flare ups since. If PlaqueOff and Lysine don’t work, please don’t hesitate to have the cat’s teeth removed. I waited much too long.Ting Tu, an oriental shorthair was always needing his teeth cleaned, but always seemed to feel worse after it was done. I found a new vet through a petsitting client of mine who correctly diagnosed stomatitis. He recommended all the teeth taken out by a specialist. It was costly, but Ting Tu became a new cat. He doesn’t know he doesn’t have teeth (he still chews on grass and eats dry food, along with his wet food). He purrs more now than ever and is much more playful. I didn’t realize how much pain he must have been in all his life until the correct diagnosis and then removal of his teeth.
