Dog Dental Care is Essential
For Your Dog's Health

Dog dental care plays such an important role in maintaining overall good health. Did you know that your dog’s teeth and gums play a vital role in the health of his heart, lungs, kidney and liver? Bacteria found on the teeth can produce toxins which can enter the bloodstream and harm internal organs.

Are you one of the many people who ignore dental care for your dog because you just weren’t aware how important it is? This is very common, but now that you know that dog dental hygiene actually impacts your dog’s health you can do something about it. Imagine what it would be like if you didn’t brush your teeth? It’s not any different for your dog.


What should you do?

  • Annual dental cleaning by a Veterinarian
  • Brush your dog’s teeth with canine toothbrushes and toothpaste.
  • Use dental wipes for a very fast and easy way to reduce plaque build-up.
  • Reward your dog for good behavior

Of course it’s easiest when you start out doing this when your dog is a puppy, but with patience and consistency you can start this at any age.

Proper dental hygiene can actually help your dog live a longer and healthier life and you get to have a dog with good breath as an extra added bonus.
