What is your favorite oral health product for cats?

I have two 3 year old cats, one male and one female. I brush their teeth every day (or every other day, c'mon gimme a break here!). I currently am using soft bristle baby human toothbrushes and an enzymatic pet toothpaste. I also use a daily oral gel that helps prevent gingivitis plaque build-up. They also both eat a dental formula diet, and get regular dental chews. I know there is a plethora of other dental products and tips and tricks out there as I work at a veterinary office myself but I wondered if anyone had any favorite products or teeth-brushing methods specifically for cats/dogs?

Just because:

    Nope. None. Never, ever do any of that. It "wastes your time and annoys the cat".

    Ignore ANYTHING Nutro-Sophia (or Nutro-anyone) says. They are just schills for the pet supply companies. It's obscene that they are allowed to be here at all. Clearly Yahoo is making money from them. Please do not buy their products. Funny that they now keep their postings private so we can't call them on their crap.

    And...I agree...dental products for cats are silly. It neither helps nor hurts, so it's useless.

    That's awesome that you are able to brush your cat's teeth daily, because most cats won't tolerate it. I give my cats Feline Greenies Dental Treats. They are available in 5 flavors, have a unique shape, and crunchy texture for oral health. My cats love them!
