Too many people wait until there’s a problem to start taking care of their dogs’ teeth. The earlier you start the less you’ll have to worry about later. A good preventive dental care will save your puppy unnecessary pain and disease – and will save on vet bills. New research shows that by their first birthday, up to 90 percent of dogs already have some level of gum disease.<\/p>\n

How can you get your dog to relax and be able to brush his teeth without a struggle?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Can young dogs get gum disease, causing tooth loss?<\/strong><\/strong><\/h4>\n

According to older studies, 80 percent of dogs have some form of gum disease at just 3 years of age. But newer research says that as many as 90 percent have gum disease by the time they reach their first birthday.<\/p>\n

Is there anything beyond brushing you can do to improve your dog’s dental health?<\/strong><\/strong><\/h4>\n

Nothing replaces brushing. The most common and effective method of home care besides brushing are the chew-based treats and diets. These products act as abrasives on the teeth to clean them. The short list of home-care products and treatments we recommend are:<\/p>\n
