Pet Dental Health Month 2024
Looking after your pet’s teeth is an important part of preventive health care. This February is pet dental health month so here are our top tips for keeping those teeth healthy and our february special offer highlights…
Brush your pet’s teeth
- Pet owners should always seek advice from a vet to ensure that brushing is effective. However this depends on motivation, a certain degree of technical skill by the owner, and of course, a willing pet!
How to brush pet’s teeth
- You will need a (soft) toothbrush and a tooth paste formulated for pets. You must use a pet tooth paste as the human tooth pastes have a high fluoride content which can be toxic to cats and dogs. Again owners should seek their vet’s advice.
A balanced diet
- Supporting the mouth’s own self-cleaning system by feeding a balanced diet which includes some biscuits and chews. As well as the above methods of removing plaque, there are a number of excellent dental chews and specially formulated diets which can provide significant improvements to your pet’s oral health.
Veterinary checks
- Regular veterinary check ups should include an examination of your pet’s mouth. Finally, many pets require periodic professional scaling by a vet in addition to on-going plaque control.
There are a number of dental chews for dogs and cats on the market which reduce tartar build up and help keep your pet’s mouth fresh.
