FAQs for Dog Dental Care:

How often should I brush my dog's teeth?

Regular brushing is important for maintaining your dog's dental health, using specifically designed toothbrushes and toothpastes, and aiming for three times a week if possible.

What signs indicate dental problems in dogs?

Bad breath, difficulty eating or dropping food, excessive drooling, and tartar buildup on the teeth are a few indicators of dental problems. Your dog may have major dental health problems that need to be attended to by a veterinarian if they show symptoms of mouth ache or bleeding gums.

Can I use human toothpaste for my dog?

Dogs shouldn't use human toothpaste since it includes fluoride and other potentially dangerous ingredients, and since they spit the toothpaste rather than rinsing it off, they may end up swallowing it. Make sure to always use toothpaste made especially for dogs.

Are dental chews effective for dogs?   

Dental chews may reduce the amount of tartar and plaque that forms on your dog's teeth. They work by mechanically brushing the dog's teeth while they chew, which helps reduce the quantity of plaque bacteria that are visible on the surface of the teeth.

What should I do if my dog resists dental care?

Slowly introduce dental care and make it as positive and stress-free as possible. Using flavoured toothpastes and fun dental toys can also help make dental care a more enjoyable experience for your dog.
