Once the adult teeth have come in, it is crucial to maintain them. Contrary to what many think, teeth do not renew themselves. That\u2019s why brushing your pet\u2019s teeth should start as early as possible.<\/p><h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why is it important to brush your pet&#8217;s teeth?<\/strong><\/h4><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Plaque continuously forms on teeth. In just 24 to 48 hours, it becomes tartar. This can lead to bad breath, infections, and gum diseases. Brushing is the most effective method to prevent this.<\/p><div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-7387b849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\"><div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"463\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/testvet.brainmarketing.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/AdobeStock_108403019.jpeg\" alt=\"brushing pet's teeth daily\" class=\"wp-image-11373\" style=\"width:300px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/testvet.brainmarketing.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/AdobeStock_108403019.jpeg 463w, https:\/\/testvet.brainmarketing.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/AdobeStock_108403019-289x300.jpeg 289w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 463px) 100vw, 463px\" \/><\/figure><\/div><\/div><h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>When and how should you brush your pet&#8217;s teeth?<\/strong><\/h4><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dental brushing for pets should be done once a day. Simply brush the outer surfaces of the teeth. There\u2019s no need to brush the inside of the teeth or force the mouth open. Focus on the back teeth, as these are often the most prone to tartar.<\/p><h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What type of toothbrush and toothpaste should you choose?<\/strong><\/h4><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Use a toothbrush suitable for the size of your pet\u2019s mouth. If your pet doesn\u2019t like the brush, try finger brushes. It is essential to choose toothpaste made for pets. Never use human toothpaste, as it is not suitable. Choose an enzymatic toothpaste for the best results.<\/p><h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to introduce dental brushing?<\/strong><\/h4><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The introduction to brushing should be gradual. Start with short sessions, in a calm and positive environment. Try different toothpaste flavors to see what your pet prefers. The more enjoyable the experience, the easier it will be for your pet to accept it.<\/p><h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Need help?<\/strong><\/h4><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have any questions or concerns, your veterinary team can guide you. They will advise you on the best dental care practices for your pet.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our animals, like us, have baby teeth and then adult teeth.
