Hygiene <\/strong><\/em><\/h2>\nPekingese can have a problem with plaque and tartar accumulation, which worsens with increasing age. Dry food, hard dog biscuits, and rawhide chewies are helpful, but not totally effective, at removing plaque.<\/p>\n
Brushing your Pekingese teeth<\/span><\/em><\/a> once or twice weekly (optimally, daily) with a child’s toothbrush and doggy toothpaste is the best plaque remover. If not removed, plaque will attract bacteria and minerals, that will harden into tartar.<\/p>\n
If you cannot brush, your veterinarian can supply a cleansing solution that will help to kill plaque-forming bacteria, as well as bad breath! You may have to have your veterinarian clean your dog’s teeth as often as once a year.<\/p>\n
Neglected plaque and tartar can cause infections to form along the gum line. The infection can gradually work its way down the sides of the tooth until the entire root is undermined. The tissues and bone around the tooth erode, and the tooth finally falls out.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the bacteria may have entered the bloodstream and been carried throughout the body, causing infection in the kidneys and heart valves. Neglecting your dog’s teeth can do more harm than causing bad breath\u2014it could possibly kill your Pekingese.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
