Dr. Marty's Better Life dental chews for small dogs carry a strong 4.5 star average, but with just 13 reviews on record, that rating is based on a small early group of buyers rather than a large track record.
Owners of small dogs who already trust the Dr. Marty brand and want to try their dental chew line.

Overview
["This 30 stick bag from Dr. Marty is positioned as a dental care chew for small dogs, packaged in a resealable bag under the Better Life Chews name. Unlike some other chews in this set, the listing doesn't spell out a specific flavor or special ingredient, so the core information available is mostly around packaging and sizing.", "At 19.05 ounces and 30 sticks per bag, it's meant to last through regular use for a small dog. The brand itself, Dr. Marty, is more widely known for its supplement and food lines, so this dental chew is a newer addition without the same review depth as its other products.", "Priced at $70.99, this is by far the most expensive chew in this group. With only 13 reviews at a 4.5 star average and about 200 bought last month, it's still building its reputation, and the high price relative to review count is worth weighing carefully."]

Performance notes
Without detailed flavor or ingredient specs listed, it's hard to say exactly what drives the dental benefit here beyond the general chew format across 30 sticks. The main data points available are the bag size, stick count, and brand name, so buyers considering this one are relying more on the Dr. Marty brand name than on specific formula details.
What buyers say
A 4.5 star average from just 13 reviews is a promising early signal, but it's a small enough sample that the rating could shift meaningfully as more buyers weigh in, especially given the premium $70.99 price point.
No, it currently has only 13 reviews, so while the 4.5 star average looks strong, it's based on a small early group of buyers.
What size dog is this chew intended for?
It's marketed as a dental chew for small dogs, packaged as 30 sticks in a 19.05 ounce bag.
Why is this chew priced higher than similar products?
The listing doesn't break down the price beyond brand and packaging, so the higher cost likely reflects the Dr. Marty brand positioning rather than a documented premium ingredient list.
