Description
Recommended for pets who have severe gum disease or for ongoing dental care at home .
Maxiguard Oral Gel is supplied unmixed with a separate vial of Vitamin C (Ascorbic acid).
Instructions for Mixing.
Remove the gel cap, snap off the applicator tip, and pour in the vial of ascorbic acid. Replace the applicator tip and cap then shake into solution for approximately 60-90 seconds.
Instructions for Application.
Place one pea-sized drop (cats) or two drops (small dogs) on your index finger, gauze pad, swab, or finger brush to treat one side of the pet’s mouth. Simply rub the gel briefly over the gum area above the outside of the upper back molars. Repeat on the opposite side. The Zinc Ascorbate gel will stimulate the salivary glands, and provide a gentle bathing action throughout the oral cavity. Do not rub additional gel on multiple oral areas. You will simply waste your professional strength product and may cause your pet to salivate excessively. Application to larger dogs is often easier by direct, but careful, application directly from the bottle.
Instructions for Storage.
Before mixing, Maxiguard Oral Cleansing Gel has a shelf life of over 3 years, however, as with any coloured product, direct sunlight should be avoided. After mixing with Vitamin C, the shelf life is approximately 6 months providing it is stored away from light. Storing in a refrigerator is ideal. Maxiguard features a unique product freshness indicator through natural colour change. The product is fresh and effective as long as the colour remains blue or green. A brown or yellow colour indicates the product, although safe, is no longer fresh and effective.
5 out of 5 Gingivitis and Periodontal Disease in Cats
sharon.irwin16 (verified owner) –
I have 12 Cats (of which most are rescues) and almost all (but one) have Gingivitis Two have progressed to Periodontal Disease. I purchased a small Toothbrush, Toothpaste, Oral Cleansing Gel and Spray and Maxiguard OraZn Gel, to try them all. Although with long hours, and little time, I try as much as possible to keep up cleaning and applying Gel etc, to the cats teeth. I have noticed a huge improvement. The two cats that have periodontal disease are British Shorthairs (brother & sister from different litters)and had cleaning and antibiotics from my Vet. One had one tooth extracted. These products have helped these cats hugely. If you have trouble applying to the cats gums, use a cat grooming bag to train them, purchasable online. Once they get used to the routine you won’t need it. The cats love the toothpaste and love the Gel. They aren’t so keen on the Cleansing Spray & Gel, but it’s necessary for cats with advanced dental problems and it’s made a difference to my cats.
