Royal Canin Dental Care is a dry kibble for adult cats, available in a 400 g bag, formulated specifically for cats prone to tartar buildup. The kibble shape and texture are engineered to provide mechanical cleaning action with each bite — a passive dental care approach that works within a cat's existing feeding routine.

Tartar forms when plaque mineralises on the tooth surface, and the Royal Canin Dental Care kibble is sized and textured to disrupt this process mechanically. Cats bite through the kibble rather than crushing it, which creates a scrubbing effect on the tooth. The complete formula meets adult maintenance requirements, so switching from a standard kibble doesn't require supplementation.

Adult cats with a tendency to accumulate tartar are the obvious audience. Owners who've found dental gels or tooth brushing unworkable — which is most — find a purpose-formulated kibble is the more consistent option, because feeding happens regardless.
