Don't turn your head to your pets' stinky breath! That odor might signify a serious health risk. Periodontal disease is fairly common in dogs and cats. Just as we eat food and it sticks to our teeth, we brush them to remove leftover food particles. Your pets' teeth should be brushed as well. It can be easier than you think. You can use healthy treats that clean your pets' teeth, such as greenies, and you can also use a toothbrush and special toothpaste to clean them. It is important to start this process when they are puppies, so that they get familiar with you brushing their teeth.
It is important that teeth cleaning be a daily ritual to prevent problems with teeth and gums, which could lead to organ damage if left untreated. For more information contact your local vet and vet technician!
