When should you use dental powder?
Dental powder can help with:
- reducing plaque
- helping to prevent tartar
- supporting healthy teeth
- reducing bad breath
For the best result, it is important to use the powder daily according to the recommended dosage.
How does dental powder work?
Most dental powders contain natural ingredients, such as seaweed or enzymes, which act on plaque and the formation of tartar via saliva. The effect differs per product, but dental powder is intended to support good oral hygiene and does not replace professional dental cleaning.
Is dental powder a replacement for tooth brushing?
No. Tooth brushing remains the most effective way to remove plaque. Dental powder can be a valuable supplement, especially for dogs where brushing is difficult or as extra support for daily dental care.
When should you contact a veterinarian?
Does your dog have a lot of tartar, bad breath, red or bleeding gums, or difficulty eating? Then it is wise to have your dog checked by a veterinarian. Sometimes professional dental cleaning is needed before you start using a maintenance product such as dental powder.
