The dental condition of healthy dogs

Most people think that brushing their dogs’ teeth is troublesome, and they don’t want to spend the time and energy brushing their dogs’ teeth. They think that it is impossible for their dogs to let you brush their teeth. Very troublesome. As a result, dental calculus increased day by day and became more and more smelly. Some people will take their dogs to the hospital for anesthesia and dental cleaning, but there are also owners who are unwilling to take care of it in order to save a little money.

I once saw a dog whose mandible softened and fractured due to periodontal disease and periostitis because the owner never brushed or cleaned its teeth. The dog couldn't close his mouth every day, his jaw hung down, he was in pain and hungry, and in the end the owner had to send him to the hospital for euthanasia. If you knew earlier and brushed or washed its teeth, it wouldn't have to suffer this kind of torture, wouldn't it? The best way to take care of your teeth is to brush them every day and take them to the hospital for teeth cleaning regularly.

Care for puppies’ teeth

You should start brushing your dog’s teeth when they are young, before their teeth change. You don’t have to be a good brusher, just use some time to play brushing games with your dog to make him enjoy brushing. After it has replaced its teeth, you can easily brush its teeth every day to protect its teeth!

Remember! This is not brushing, but a "game". You can use a dog-specific toothbrush or a soft-bristled toothbrush for children.

Treat brushing your dog's teeth as a "game"

First, squeeze the edible enzyme toothpaste onto your dog's toothbrush, don't brush, and let the dog lick it. The purpose is to Let your dog get used to the feel of the bristles on his tongue. Continue for a few days until the toothbrush comes to you automatically as soon as you take it out, and you can enter the second stage.

To brush your dog’s teeth, you need to master some brushing skills

That is, while your dog is licking the toothpaste, gently move the toothbrush back and forth to let it feel the movement of the bristles. This is not actually brushing the teeth. . Likewise, wait until you confirm that your dog has adapted before you can move on to the next stage.

Next, please hold the dog’s head, let it lick the toothpaste, and insert the toothbrush between its teeth and lips (usually you don’t need to brush the inside of the teeth, because the dog’s tongue will clean the inner teeth). Then take it out immediately and let it continue to lick the toothpaste. Only after confirming that it does not reject it can you officially start brushing your teeth.

Finally, let the dog not resist brushing and fall in love with brushing

The way to brush teeth is to brush up and down, not back and forth. As long as you find that it feels uncomfortable or rejects it at all on the way, you should take it out immediately and let it continue to lick the toothpaste. Note down the brushing time that it can accept. The next time you brush your teeth, you should interrupt before it becomes impatient.
