Benefits of Regular Teeth Cleaning:
- Prevents plaque and tartar buildup: Regular brushing and professional cleanings can help remove plaque and prevent tartar formation, reducing the risk of dental diseases.
- Maintains fresh breath: Doggy breath is not normal. Proper dental care eliminates bacteria that cause bad breath, keeping your dog's breath fresh and pleasant.
- Preserves teeth and gums: By keeping their teeth clean, you can safeguard against tooth loss, gum inflammation, and other dental problems that can be painful and require costly treatments.
- Promotes overall health: Good oral hygiene can have a positive impact on your dog's overall health. It reduces the risk of infections and decreases the likelihood of diseases caused by bacteria entering the bloodstream.


Tips for Dog Teeth Cleaning:

- Regular brushing: Aim to brush your dog's teeth at least two to three times a week using a dog-specific toothbrush and toothpaste. Start slowly, making it a positive experience, and gradually increase the duration and frequency.
- Dental treats and toys: Chew toys and dental treats designed to promote oral health can help reduce plaque buildup and keep your dog's teeth clean.
- Dental diet: Some specially formulated dog foods can aid in reducing plaque and tartar. Talk to your veterinarian to determine if a dental diet would be suitable for your dog's needs.

Dog teeth cleaning is an important aspect of caring for your pet.  A healthy smile translates to a happy and healthy dog!
