🦷🪥DENTAL CARE🪥🦷

We know how important dental health is for us, so why should it be any different for our pets? Here are some effective ways to keep their dental health in good condition:

🦷 Regular brushing - lot of people are shocked when I bring up brushing their pets teeth but it makes sense - their teeth are just like ours. There are a multitude of different toothbrushes designed for our pets as well as animal toothpaste (please never human toothpaste!). Ideally, their teeth should be brushed daily but a few times a week can make a difference.

🦷 Dental chews - specifically designed chews help reduce plaque and tartar build up. Both Greenies and Veggiedent have the Veterinary Oral Health Council tick of approval and are stocked here in clinic.

🦷 Specialised diets - The Hills t/d dental care kibble is designed to help remove plaque and freshen your pets breath. The large kibble size, shape and texture assist with cleaning the teeth to the gum line to promote healthy gums and teeth.

🦷 Dental additives - PlaqueOff powder for dogs and cats is a completely natural product that has been clinically proven to reduce bad breath, plaque and tartar. This product also has the Veterinary Oral Health Council tick of approval. Please feel free to chat to any of our helpful staff about this product

🦷🪥August is dental month 🦷🪥

It’s dental month! and you know what that means - its time to chat about your pets smelly breath!

Dental disease can not only be painful, but can also affect important organs like the heart, liver and kidneys (exactly the same as us).

A simple check with one of our friendly vets can help determine if this is a problem for your pet. So if their breath is causing you to pull a face, they’re having trouble eating or their teeth are looking brown please give us a call🦷🦷

P.S. keep an eye out for our dental home care options, in clinic offers & tips and tricks throughout this month
