The KONG Squeezz Dental Bone is a rubber chew toy for dogs that combines play with dental hygiene. Designed to flex as dogs bite down, the textured nubs work against teeth and gums to help reduce plaque build-up — a useful addition to a dental care routine for dogs that enjoy a good chew.

The toy's flexible rubber construction bends and compresses during chewing, letting the raised nubs reach different surfaces of the teeth. It squeaks during use, which tends to extend play sessions considerably. The bone can also be stuffed with treats, adding an enrichment element alongside the dental benefit.

A solid option for dogs who resist dedicated tooth brushing — the chewing action does a reasonable amount of the work without any cooperation required. The squeaker keeps dogs engaged long enough for the dental benefits to actually take effect.
