Dentastix Large-Breed Dental Dog Chews — Bacon, 40 Count
Product description
Includes 40 bacon-flavored dental chews formulated for large-breed dogs. Each stick is shaped in an X design and has a chewy texture intended to contact more tooth surfaces during chewing. The package provides a month-plus supply when given once daily.
The X-shape and pliable bite help scrape plaque from teeth and access hard-to-reach areas around the gumline while the dog chews. The product is intended for dogs 40 pounds and up; manufacturers recommend one chew per day as part of a regular dental routine rather than a replacement for brushing or veterinary cleanings.
Flavored with bacon to increase palatability, these chews are made without added sugar or unnecessary fillers. They can be offered after meals or used as a training reward, satisfying a dog’s chewing instinct while contributing to fresher breath and tartar control over time.
Pros
- X-shape and texture help remove plaque
- Formulated for large dogs (40+ lbs.) with once-daily use
- No added sugar or filler ingredients
Cons

VerdictThese large-breed dental chews offer a simple at-home dental aid: an X-shaped, chewy stick designed to reach between teeth, reduce tartar formation, and improve breath with a flavor dogs enjoy. Formulated for dogs over 40 lb., they’re a convenient once-a-day treat that doubles as a reward while supporting routine oral hygiene. Not a substitute for brushing or professional cleanings, but a practica

Encourages real chewing
The dogs love these and they take their time chewing, which is what I want for dental benefit.

Three dogs give it a thumbs-up
My three dogs go crazy for these beef-style chews. I give a whole stick to each large dog and split one for my 40-lb pup — she never notices. They chew for a minute or so and I give them after meals. They seem high-quality and arrive sealed so they stay fresh; my dogs really crave them.

Effective daily supplement
A handy chew for everyday oral care. They make sizes for different dogs; my girl gets one after her last meal and always gets excited. I’ve found them a good value compared with other options.

Mint variety is strong, bedtime favorite
The mint sticks have a very strong scent that I don’t love, but the dogs act like they’re getting a toothbrush. They get excited every night — bacon is their top choice. I usually buy the 40-count packs and keep extras for holidays.

Dalmatian’s go-to treat
My Dalmatian has tried many treats and these are the ones she prefers. Big enough to split for larger dogs and available in several flavors — she tends to pick bacon.

Works for a picky older dog
This is the only dental treat my picky senior will accept. It’s not so hard it hurts his older teeth, yet firm enough to help lift plaque and freshen breath.

One dog can’t get enough
Only one of our dogs is obsessed — maybe it’s the bacon. Given the quantity and the value, they’re worth buying for us.

Reliable option after comparing choices
I’ve bought these several times over the past couple of years after checking other local options. No sugars or fillers, and not meant for puppies. They come in sizes, so match to your dog. My larger dogs finish quickly; my older, toothier pup chews more slowly and seems to enjoy them most.
