Dental care for doggie breath

Just like their human counterparts, Orange County dogs need dental care. Dental care is often overlooked when it comes to our fur buddies. Oral care for dogs is important to their health as well.

If you care for them regularly you can catch dental problems early which can help to prevent disease or illness. When inspecting their mouth look at the front and back teeth by moving the lips gently.

If they have bad breath, increased salivation, red gums, bleeding, tartar, and missing or loose teeth you should bring them into the veterinarian immediately.

There are steps that you can take which will help prevent oral problems for your dog. Setup and maintain a regular dental care routine. This routine should include daily teeth brushing, special dental chews, and regular wellness visits.

Do your research on any products that you use as some may have additives which are not good for your dog. There are also food and water additives which can help maintain the oral health of your dog.

If you are worried that your dog’s teeth are not as clean as they should be then you can try taking them in for a professional dental cleaning. This should only be done on recommendation though since they use general anesthesia.

Here’s hoping your dog has beautiful teeth for a long time to come!
