Nutri-Vet is reviewing the possibility of VOHC certification for our dental products. It’s important to note that the VOHC seal means that a dental product demonstrates dental efficacy for plaque or tartar and is not indicative of the safety of the product. Additionally, not all dental products go through the process of adding the VOHC seal to their product and this does not mean the product is not effective. Each company and brand determine whether they would like to pay the Veterinary Oral Health Council to evaluate the external testing that has been conducted to determine if the product demonstrates the effectiveness to control plaque and tartar control in animals.
