Dog teeth and oral care:

1. Regular brushing

Regular brushing of your dog’s teeth is the first step in care. Brushing teeth can effectively remove food residue from the dog's mouth, ensure the cleanliness of the mouth, avoid the deposition of dental calculus, and prevent the formation of periodontal disease. However, owners need to pay attention to using dog-specific toothbrushes and toothpastes for cleaning, because human toothpaste contains too many chemicals that are not good for dogs.

2. A nutritionally balanced diet
The dog’s diet should be nutritionally balanced, and the food eaten should be formulated according to the dog’s lifestyle and life cycle. A balanced diet can ensure adequate nutrition, especially calcium and phosphorus, which are necessary for the growth of your dog's teeth. If there is a lack of calcium during the critical period of dog tooth growth, it will lead to double rows of teeth.

3. Screen the food types

Try not to feed your dog soft and rotten food, which can easily stick to the gaps between the teeth and be difficult to remove. If the dog does not have the habit of brushing its teeth, over time, a large amount of tartar will accumulate on the dog's teeth, eventually leading to the formation of dental calculus.

4. Teeth-cleaning auxiliary products
You can often let your dog chew specially designed tooth-cleaning products, such as dog chew gum, tooth-cleaning sticks, etc. It allows dogs to clean their teeth during play and slow down the formation of plaque and calculus. With correct daily care, your dog can have healthy teeth. If you use dental bone or cowhide bone, please pay attention to the size to avoid hurting the dog.

5. Teeth cleaning

Tooth cleaning needs to be done in the hospital. For dogs, you can do ordinary teeth cleaning and ultrasonic teeth cleaning. Ultrasonic teeth cleaning requires your dog to be anesthetized.
