Hill's t/d Mini Dental Care - Prescription Diet - Canine
Hill's t/d Mini Canine helps strengthen teeth and combats bad breath. The small chunks of dry food contain no mineral abrasives or active chemicals, and are most effective when given after professional dental treatment. Other dental treatments, such as brushing the teeth, are recommended. Due to a special fibre structure, the food does not crumble easily. These fibres rub the surface of the teeth clean before breaking up. Moderate levels of protein, calcium, phosphorus and sodium limit the build-up of dental plaque. There are suitable sizes for different breeds. For dogs weighing over 10 kg, we recommend Hill's t/d Canine.
Dental problems in dogs
Dental plaque and tartar is formed along and under the edge of the gums. Because your dog cannot brush his teeth, the formation of tartar can lead to periodontal disease, causing the tissue supporting gums and teeth to soften.
Not suitable for:
This diet is not suitable for cats, puppies, pregnant or lactating female dogs or dogs with a severe dental disease that has not been examined or treated.
