Protect your pet's teeth
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.
