Of course other negative issues with the vet approach for dental care is that it is very expensive in most areas and the dog has to take antibiotics afterward for 10 days. These too are expensive and also can cause upset stomachs.
So can tartar and gum disease be prevented by regular brushing? Absolutely! So long as a good quality dog toothpaste or gel is used, like Petzlife, brushing can have a dramatic and positive effect on keeping plaque and tartar off your pet’s teeth.
In fact, brushing with Petzlife gel is the fastest way to clean the teeth short of using the dangerous method of scaling which requires general anesthesia. It’s not even necessary to brush perfectly. Just using the brush to cover as much of the teeth as possible with the tooth paste is all that’s required really. The dog will lick it around afterwards and spread it on all areas.
But what if the dog refuses the brushing? That is OK too. Some dogs simple do not want the brush in their mouth. If your dog is like this, don’t despair! The gel still works simply by smearing it into the dog’s mouth with your fingers. In almost all cases this can be done. But even if that is not an option, it’s fine to simply put the gel onto a dob of peanut butter and give it to the dog. This will cause the dog to lick and lick it all around and the dog toothpaste will be spread throughout the mouth.
So if you can brush your dog’s teeth, that is great! If not, then using the other methods described above will work just fine too. The only difference is the time required to remove the initial tartar buildup. It can be removed more quickly with brushing. But again, that is not required. It may simply take a few more weeks of application if the dog tooth brush can’t be used.
