Abstract
A pet dental device includes a main body and an outer shell. The main body houses a pressure-actuated sound generator and that has outer surfaces from which a plurality of brushes extend. The outer shell covers at least a portion of the main body such that a gap exists between the shell and the outer surfaces of the main body, and includes a plurality of brush ports aligned with the brushes. The outer shell is sufficiently flexible to be compressed inward by a selected animal's jaws such that toothpaste is distributed via the brushes to teeth of the selected animal and such that sounds are generated, via the pressure-actuated sound generator housed in the main body, more or less simultaneously with the distribution of toothpaste.
