Introducing BreathVet – The Dog Mouthwash for Dog Breath

Dog owners know that unconditional love includes bad dog breath. Puppy breath starts to change at roughly eight weeks, so all dogs and their owners constantly face the stinky dilemma of how to combat yucky dog breath.

At your dog’s annual visit, the vet may point out noticeable oral health issues with your dog’s teeth, tongue and gums. Expect to be asked about your dog’s dental habits, because your dog’s vet can tell if there is plaque buildup on her teeth or the possible evidence of gum disease. Brushing is the first step to improving your dog’s oral health.

Know the Signs

Sticking to a brushing schedule is also an opportunity to check inside your dog’s mouth for any of these issues:

Swollen or bleeding gums
Lumps in the gums
Loose or broken teeth
Large cysts under the tongue or by the jaws

If you notice any of these or a combination, contact your vet’s office for a more thorough exam.

Steps to Maintain Your Dog’s Oral Care

Brushing your dog’s teeth is as important as brushing your teeth. You can use a special toothbrush or a child-sized toothbrush, but only use toothpaste made specifically for dogs. It’s important to gradually introduce brushing and most dogs will get used to it, especially if you offer praise and treats as a reward.

If your dog is not willing to have her teeth brushed or you can’t stick to the brushing schedule, you still have other options. You can solve your dog’s bad breath and improve oral care by using:

Single-use dental wipes
Food and treats designed to help improve dental health
Chew toys
Dog mouthwash
Water additives
