    Apparently that’s better for the teeth? It’d be the attack training that wears them down.

      Probably not actually, especially in the long term. Crowns and veneers can lead to lots of other dental problems and the thing is, the dog doesn’t have human speech to let handlers know it’s in pain or having a problem right away so if they have a rotting tooth or a cracked one under the cap all kinds of things can go wrong.

        I’m sure they have side effects, but I’d think that’d be better than breaking teeth.
