Product Overview How it Works What's Inside Reviews

TEEF: Protektin42™

  • Targets the root cause of gum disease: the overgrowth of inflammation-causing bacteria in the mouth.
  • Supports beneficial bacterial populations using a science-backed formula, Protektin42™, that packs a quadruple-action punch to the bacteria in the mouth to balance the oral microbiome. The four key components are soluble fiber, vitamin B6, sodium bicarbonate, and amino acids.
  • Promotes strong teeth, healthy gums, and fresh breath.
  • Easy to use, safe, and nontoxic; no artificial flavors, colors, fillers, or preservatives; tasteless and odorless.

TEEF for Life

Excellent product! Since I've been using on my dog, I see better oral health- less smelly mouth and less redness in gums. Thanks so much!

A definite improvement

My almost 14 yr old pitbull female has gum inflammation, I have used one months supply of Teef and I can truthfully say there is a huge improvement, almost completely healed. I am impressed!

great for my dog's "teef"

I brush my dog's teeth daily because i'm lucky enough that he allows me to, but brushing doesn't get beneath the gumline, and teef does. he doesn't taste it in the water, and his water consumption has not decreased at all since we started. highly recommend!

Our senior cat / 12 yrs old needed this and he seems to respond well - I tried another product BACI but the content was not right for him with the algae it varech - a no no for our dog and cat - I would order again for our cat definitively - 👍

Seems to help

I have an old dog that had health issues we had to address prior to dental care which he needed. We never could get it done and now he is too old.
This seems to help with his breath and not getting infected teeth.

Why does TEEF turn my dog’s water slightly yellow?

The vitamin B6 in Protektin42™ turns yellow when it is exposed to water, which accounts for the slight color change. Don’t worry - it’s still safe and effective.

Can I make a large batch ahead of time?

Yes! We recommend filling a pitcher or bottle with water and Protektin42™, and then store it in the refrigerator to replenish throughout the day as needed. For half of a gallon of water, use 1 scoop of Protektin42™. For a full gallon of water, use 2 scoops of Protektin42™.

My dog has kidney disease. Is Protektin42™ safe for my dog?

This product is safe for pets with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Sodium bicarbonate, an ingredient in this product, is commonly used to slow the progression of chronic kidney disease.

My dog has cardiovascular disease. Is Protektin42™ safe for my dog?

Dogs with cardiovascular disease are generally advised to reduce the amount of sodium in the diet. This product contains a very small amount of sodium, which is negligible for a cat or dog with cardiovascular disease. A scoop of Protektin42™ contains about 3 mg of sodium.


Because Protektin42™ is not dosed by weight, the smallest dogs get the largest dose relative to their weight. The most extreme case would be for a very small dog, 4.4 lbs, with cardiovascular disease on a limited-sodium diet. The recommended limit of sodium for this dog is 50 mg of sodium per day. Protektin42™ only provides 3 mg, or 6% of the total. Most dogs are much larger, so the Protektin42™ contributes even less: it contributes only 1.2% of daily sodium needs for a 22 lb dog on a low-sodium diet, and only 0.5% of daily sodium needs for a 50lb dog on a low-sodium diet. In short, the amount of sodium in Protektin42™ is insignificant compared to the overall sodium needs of a dog with cardiovascular disease.

Can I use this product with a water filter?

This product is not to be used with a water filter. A water filter will remove the Protektin42™ additive from the water, so pets drinking from the bowl will never get any Protektin42™. It is perfectly fine to mix Protektin42™ into filtered water.

My dog shares a water bowl with a cat. Is this product safe for cats?

Yes, this product is safe for cats. In households with both cats and dogs, we recommend Protektin42™ rather than Protektin30™ (as dogs can sometimes detect the chlorella in Protektin30™).

How long is it effective once I’ve mixed it with water?

Once the powder has been mixed with water, plan to use it within 2-3 days. Protektin42™ doesn’t contain any preservatives, so it doesn’t keep for long periods of time.

Are there any potential side effects?

Protektin42™ contains a very small amount of soluble fiber, which in rare cases can cause soft or loose stools. If this occurs with your dog, temporarily reduce the Protektin42™ dose by half until their stools return to normal.

Is this product to be used in addition to brushing, or instead of brushing?

Protektin42™ is most effective when it is used in addition to brushing and regular dental care by a veterinarian.
