Protect your pet's teeth

2016/5/4 10:40:04

Even if you can't see it, you can keep your dog smiling when you take care of your dog's dental health. The questions are; where should you get the dental supplies you will need and what do pet owners need to know about the dental health of Bowser?

The best place to get the dental supplies may be online. There are sites that have a wide array of dental supplies for dogs as well as all kinds of other things you may need for your canine including food, pet dishes, carriers, crates, meds, clothing, dog houses, leashes, collars and toys.

The doggy dental supplies you find online should cover everything you will need. There are special brushes and toothpaste made especially for dogs. Since you should not use a toothbrush or toothpaste that is formulated for humans you will be able to find everything you need at an online site that has pet supplies.

You may also be able to find wipes that are designed for dogs who have a real aversion to having their teeth brushed. These wipes are dental supplies that are actually pads that will help remove food residue and plaque. They also control bad breath and kill germs.

If you begin brushing your dog's teeth as a puppy you may have an easier time with the brushing process. Some dogs resist if they are older and have never had their teeth brushed.

Pet owners should brush their dog's teeth at least twice a week. If your dog has dental problems you may need to brush more often. You should check your dog's mouth periodically for signs of gum disease. Look for teeth that are clean and do not have brown or yellow spots. Also take a look at your dog's gums. The gums should hug the teeth and be a healthy pink color.

When you notice signs of gum disease or problems with your dog's teeth you should make an appointment with your vet. Your vet will be able to give your dog a thorough teeth cleaning. Sometimes the situation is more serious and your dog may need an antibiotic to take care of a possible gum infection before your vet can begin the teeth cleaning. There are times when blood work will need to be done or teeth may need to pulled.

Take advantage of the excellent doggy dental supplies that are available, keep your dog's teeth clean, and visit the vet for a good teeth cleaning on a regular basis.

Even if you can't see it, you can keep your dog smiling when you take care of your dog's dental health. The questions are; where should you get the dental supplies you will need and what do pet owners need to know about the dental health of Bowser?
