Chlorhexidine Dental Wipes for Dogs and Cats
Chlorhexidine Dental Wipes are a brushing-free way to support daily oral care for both dogs and cats. Each wipe is formulated with chlorhexidine gluconate to help clean the teeth and gums, making it a simple option for pets who resist a traditional toothbrush.
A quick wipe along the gumline can go a long way toward slowing plaque buildup between brushings, whether you're caring for a dog, a cat, or both in the same household.
What Are Chlorhexidine Dental Wipes?
These dental wipes are individually sized for one-time use, making them an easy option to keep on hand for a quick dental touch-up after meals or before bed. Because no rinsing or brushing motion is required, they work well for dogs and cats that resist a traditional toothbrush entirely.
Key Ingredient: Chlorhexidine Gluconate 0.1%
The active ingredient in each wipe is Chlorhexidine Gluconate at 0.1%, formulated specifically for use on teeth and gums as part of a regular oral care routine for dogs and cats.
Chlorhexidine Dental Wipes for Dogs and Cats
This product is formulated for both dogs and cats, so the same pack works across a multi-pet household. Cats in particular can be difficult to brush, making a quick wipe along the gumline a practical alternative for regular at-home dental care.
A Brushing-Free Way to Support Oral Care
For pets that won't tolerate a toothbrush, a wipe can help keep teeth and gums clean without the resistance a brushing session sometimes creates. This makes dental wipes a useful addition to routine care for pets of any temperament, dog or cat.
Helping Support Fresh Breath
Along with helping clean teeth and gums, regular use of these wipes is intended to help support fresher breath as part of an ongoing oral hygiene routine.
Why a Finger Wipe Format Works Well for Resistant Pets
The finger wipe format lets you clean along the gumline with a controlled, gentle motion, which tends to be better tolerated than a toothbrush by many dogs and cats. You can see more about Stratford's finger wipe format and how it fits into a broader at-home dental routine.
How to Use Chlorhexidine Dental Wipes
Lift your pet's lip and gently wipe the teeth and gums from front to back on both sides. For best results, use twice daily or after meals, or as directed by your veterinarian.
Building a Daily Dental Care Habit
Keeping a pack of wipes in a grooming bag or by the door makes the habit easier to stick with. Consistency matters more than any single wipe, so building this into an existing daily routine, like after breakfast or before bed, helps it stay part of a regular habit for both dogs and cats.
Dental Wipes vs. Toothbrushing
Toothbrushing with a pet-safe toothpaste is still considered a thorough at-home dental care method, but not every pet will tolerate it. Dental wipes offer a brushing-free alternative that's easier to introduce for pets who resist a toothbrush, or a supplement to brushing on days when a full session isn't practical. For a broader look at other approaches, Stratford's ProDen DentalCare line offers additional dental care options beyond wipes.

Chlorhexidine Dental Wipes come in a 50 count pack, sized for regular, ongoing use as part of a daily or twice-daily dental care routine.
Who Is This Product For?
These wipes are a good fit for dog and cat owners looking for a simple, brushing-free way to support oral care, especially for pets that resist a toothbrush. You can browse Stratford's full dental care collection for additional options to pair with a wipe-based routine.
When to Ask a Veterinarian
Chlorhexidine Dental Wipes are intended to support routine oral hygiene, not to diagnose or treat a dental or periodontal condition. If your pet shows signs of dental pain, bleeding gums, loose teeth, or persistent bad breath, talk to your veterinarian before continuing a home dental care routine.
