Teeth, Jaws and Gums: Dental Health
Dental Health
Teeth are a vital part of every pet's life. Just like humans, cats and dogs can experience cavities, rotting teeth, pain and inflamed gums. There are a few things which can negatively impact your pet's dental health including low quality and biologically inappropriate food, plaque build up, injury, misuse, and lack of use due to soft food or under-eating.
So what can you do to help?
There's a few things you can do to help maintain your pet's teeth health: regular vet check ups, a consistent diet, and regular brushing (with a pet-specific brush and pet toothpaste). Your veterinarian can perform oral examinations, identify issues in your pet's mouth and provide reccommendations for necessary measures to keep your pet's teeth clean, strong and sharp.
But preventative measures are almost more important, and that all comes down to food.
Food which is too soft, too hard or with excessive sugar, chemical preservatives, dangerous material or lacking in important nutrients like calcium and proteins, can negatively impact your pet's teeth. Food like Bella and Boots food blends which are free from chemical preservatives or excessive sugar, and packed full of important ingredients like bone bits to scrape plaque and strengthen their jaw, and calcuim and protein to help the body recover from injury and overuse, and become the fresh building blocks of their teeth.
Outside of breakfast and dinner time, giving your pet head-to-toe snacks like chicken necks and beef bones are a great way to keep your pet healthy and happy. Carrots, apples, or dental-specific chews are also a great choice for your pet's teeth.
Preventative measures, including serving Bella and Boots every day, are the best and easiest way to keep your pet's teeth happy. Start protecting them today by ordering Bella and Boots online or in-store.
