Dental health is crucial for dogs because it directly impacts their overall well-being and quality of life. Over 80% of dogs over the age of three suffer from some form of dental disease. Poor oral hygiene can lead to painful conditions affecting a dog’s ability to eat, groom, and stay active.

Maintaining good dental hygienenot only prevents discomfort and bad breath but also protects against more serious systemic health problems. Bacteria from an infected mouth can enter the bloodstream and affect major organs, contributing to heart disease, kidney issues, and liver damage. Regular dental care – including professional cleanings, at-home brushing, and nutritional strategies helps to reduce harmful bacteria and promotes better overall health for dogs.
