Just like in humans, dental care is an important part of your pet’s overall health. Start early (8-12 weeks)so that brushing becomes part of your pet’s routine. You can stop brushing when your pet is losing its baby teeth (the mouth might be a bit sore) and pick up again when the permanent teeth are in. For better dental hygiene, brush your pet’s teeth once a day. Try to brush at the same time everyday and reward with a treat as positive reinforcement. Be patient and make it fun.
