Something not hard, but that his stomach can handle. Tracheas seemed to be okay for him, so there's a start, just don't know how much good a trachea does for teeth.

We sell raw tracheas at my work - I'm sure they do much more for dental health than the dried ones! Plus, they're the same price and a lot bigger. I give them to Missy mostly frozen, and it takes her forever.
