Your pet’s oral hygiene By Ryan Brander Photo courtesy Shutterstock Beginning your pet’s dental hygiene routine at an early age and keeping it a positive exper...ience will make it more enjoyable for both of you but even if you haven’t brushed his or her teeth yet, it’s never too late to start. ____________________________________________________ Periodontal disease is the most common malady found in pets over the age of three, with many now showing early signs of this disease by the age of two. We, as pet owners, are responsible for ensuring our companion animals receive the proper oral care they deserve, but unfortunately this is something often overlooked. While practicing proper oral hygiene it’s important to remember that ‘oral hygiene’ is about more than just keeping your puppy’s pearly whites sparkling. As with us, it’s critical to care for your pet’s entire mouth. With February being National Dental Health Month for our furry loved ones, we have a few important factors that should be looked at. When should we start caring for our pets’ teeth? What should we be using? How often should this routine take place? Let’s see if we can answer these questions and help make your animal’s oral hygiene routine a little easier. When should I start? As soon as possible! Plaque and tartar do not wait to start accumulating in your pet’s mouth. Another big reason for getting that early start is to help desensitize your pets to the feeling of having someone poking around in their mouths. If not, things such as brushing their teeth can often become a difficult and unpleasant experience for both of you. That being said, it’s also never too late to start caring for your pet’s mouth. What should I be using? With there being so many dental supplements, treats and other oral hygiene products available in today’s marketplace, proper oral care can become confusing, but thankfully there are options available to meet every animal’s needs. Brushing is always your best option as it not only cleans the teeth but will also help stimulate gums reducing the chance of inflammation. Start by finding a quality pet toothpaste containing enzymes. Please note that human toothpaste is not safe to use with our pets. An enzymatic toothpaste will continue cleaning the teeth after brushing and will help eat away at anything left behind that you may have missed while brushing. As mentioned above, if your pet was not desensitized to brushing at an early age, it can almost become an impossible task. This is where dental supplements come into play. There are many high quality products available that can be added to food or water, or simply sprayed into your pet’s mouth. However, while these dental supplements are effective at cleaning teeth and maintaining fresh breath, they are not effective at stimulating gums. If using a dental supplement, it’s important to provide our animals with something to work their gums. This can be achieved by providing dental treats and natural chews that are safe for pets. Dental treats, chews and toys can and should be offered alongside brushing. To find the option that best suits your pets’ dental needs, visit your local pet speciality retailer or veterinarian. Lastly, how often should this take place? Proper oral hygiene should become part of your pet’s daily routine just remember to make it as pleasant of an experience as possible. This will help keep your pet’s mouth kissable and fresh for years to come!
