People can (and should) brush their teeth at least once a day, but cats can't do that - so how they keep their teeth healthy?
As a pet owner, you should provide proper care, so your pet can be healthy.
These steps can help you make sure your pet's teeth are fine.
Brushing
Get a special toothbrush and also toothpaste from a veterinarian.
Brush your pet's teeth regularly, and do it every day or at least a few times a week.
Start by getting your cat comfortable with the process by gradually introducing them to the toothbrush and toothpaste.
Dental Treats and Toys
Provide special dental treats and toys designed to help your pet's oral health.
These products help reduce tartar and plaque buildup while engaging your cat in playful activities.
Some of these toys are also perfectly designed for chewing.
Dental Diet
Consider feeding your cat a dental diet specially formulated to support oral health.
These foods are designed to reduce plaque and tartar accumulation, and some have a larger kibble size or a specific texture that helps clean the teeth as your pet chews.
Dental Examinations
During routine veterinary check-ups, ask your vet to check your cat's teeth and gums.
They can identify any dental issues early on and provide proper treatment.
Water Additives
Consider using water additives designed to promote oral health.
These additives can be mixed with your cat's drinking water and help reduce risks of dental issues.
