Don't give up if he won't eat the pinkie, still try the fuzzy. None of mine eat mice, but Chaucer eats quail chicks. If his "chickies" are too small he won't eat them, he'll only play with them until they explode or get lost.
I don't know if eating mice would count as a "cleaning teeth" sort of meal, considering that their bones are very small. Don't forget that you can also feed gizzards for teeth cleaning purposes.
Purrs,
