Keep your pet’s smile bright and their breath fresh with Virbac Aquadent FR3SH™ Dental Solution. Formulated by veterinary dentists and science based, results show that with daily use, Aquadent® FR3SH can improve bad breath and support dental hygiene.*
While daily toothbrushing remains the gold standard for managing oral hygiene, many pets, (particularly cats) simply will not tolerate a toothbrush, adding stress for both pet and well-meaning owners when building a regular dental care routine.
Aquadent® FR3SH™ offers an easier, highly convenient alternative for fighting bad breath and maintaining healthy teeth.
VEGGIEDENT® FR3SH™ Technology delivers a complete 3-way approach to oral care by tackling bad breath at both the source and the surface, combining effective oral care with digestive support. Starting in the mouth, where natural pomegranate extract acts as a potent antioxidant to prevent plaque-forming bacteria, while erythritol inhibits biofilm formation and provides an immediate cooling action to cleanse and freshen breath. Going beyond basic dental care, the formula features inulin - a prebiotic that balances gut microflora to tackle bad breath where it starts - in the digestive tract.
Backed by veterinary professionals, water additives are recommended by the WSAVA (World Small Animal Veterinary Association) Global Dental Guidelines as an essential part of at-home dental hygiene. Furthermore, Aquadent® FR3SH™ proudly carries the prestigious VOHC (Veterinary Oral Health Council) seal for effective plaque and tartar control, giving you clinical peace of mind with every bowl of water.

Aquadent FR3SH features an innovative blend of three key natural active ingredients designed to target the oral and digestive causes of bad breath:
Erythritol: A natural sweetener that provides an instant freshening effect in the mouth and stabilizes the oral microenvironment.
Inulin: A natural prebiotic that addresses the digestive sources of bad breath by helping to maintain a balanced gut microbiota.
Pomegranate Extract (Punica granatum): A natural antioxidant that inhibits bacterial adhesion and promotes overall gum health.
Shake before using (light sedimentation is normal).
