How do you keep your dog's teeth clean?

I have to take Peej and Bailey to the vet to have their teeth cleaned. Brushing is something they'd never tolerate, and they have never liked to chew on any kind of teeth cleaning bone. :(

My dogs all love to chew rawhides and I brush their teeth occasionally. I've been slacking on brushing their teeth lately though.

Buster is the only one I've had trouble with when it comes to teeth. His trouble began before I got him. When I got him his teeth were black. We immediately got him an appointment at the vet to have his teeth cleaned. He had to have a lot pulled. About a year later they had to go in and pull his k-9's because they were causing him to have sinus problems. His teeth aren't in too good of shape, all because of the years of neglect he had before I got him.

Mine have dental chews with little nubs on them they love to chew on as well as Nylabones. I also brush their teeth but should keep up with it more often. Tommy's teeth are perfect but Tasha's back teeth are starting to get a bit of tartar buildup. I used a scraper to get some of it off the other day but I may take her in to have them done at the vet's, it's really hard to scrape at those very back teeth.

I just recently started brushing Jasper's teeth, he doesn't mind it at all! He also has Dentabones, and he chews on bones from the pet store, like ribs, hooves..etc, and has some toys for his teeth :)
