The Best Dental Care Products for Dogs

We would do anything to keep our dogs happy and healthy. From walks to grooming, to vet checks, we take a lot of care in making sure we are doing the best we can for our beloved pets. But, are you taking care of your pup’s teeth?

Regular care is needed for your dog’s teeth in order to keep them healthy and prevent issues. Here are the best dog dental products.

Toothpaste

Toothpaste for your dog doesn’t need to be fancy and it for sure doesn’t need to be expensive. A simple dog toothpaste like this one from Arm & Hammer will do the job just fine and keep the plaque from taking over your pet’s mouth.

Toothbrush

Dog toothbrushes are slightly different than human ones because of the size of our teeth and the shape of our mouths. That’s why most dog toothbrushes look like this one from Pet Republique. It has a longer handle with a bigger set of bristles on one side and a smaller set on the other side. This makes it easy to reach the back of your pet’s mouth and you have options to choose from for the most appropriate one for your pup’s mouth size.

Another good toothbrush is one in this style from Jasper. It fits right over your finger so you can have better control of the pressure in your pooch’s mouth, and check out this article for tips on how to brush your dog’s teeth. 

Greenies Original Regular Natural Dental Dog Treats

Beyond regular teeth brushing, there are other things you can do to try and keep your pup’s teeth clean. These treats are great for preventing and removing plaque on your dog’s teeth. They taste delicious so your pet will love them, but as they chew the treat will work to remove plaque buildup and leave your pet’s teeth sparkling.

There are different kinds of dental chews as well such as these from Pedigree, these from Oravet, and these from Blue Buffalo.

Nylabone Dental Dinosaur Power Chew

If your pup is a chewer and you don’t like the idea of giving them treats all the time, this chew toy is perfect. Its shape and texture allow dogs to gnaw on this when they are bored while cleaning their teeth leaving them sparkling. It comes in a chicken flavor your pet will love and even freshens their breath!

Tartar Control Water Additive

This product works perfectly as a long-term way to clean your pet’s teeth without them even noticing. Just add some of this unflavored additive to your pup’s water bowl every time you refill it and over time, you will notice a reduction in stinky breath and tartar buildup on your dog’s teeth.

Taking care of your dog’s dental health is super important, so we hope these products help keep your pooch healthy!
