Natural and Safe Ways to Keep Your Dog's Teeth Clean!

Dental care is more important for your dogs than you may realize. Periodontal disease has become the most common disease in our furry family members, which is a hard fact to digest since dental disease is extremely easy to prevent.

As dogs enter their golden years, poor dental health is the ticket to a shorter life riddled with illness and potential disease. Bad dental health can cause liver, heart and kidney disease; Infection from ill-kept teeth can travel through the blood stream and infiltrate the body's organs, which inevitably causes disease or failure. Since dental disease in dogs can be easily prevented, it is important to find a cleaning routine that works best for you and your dog.

You can use safe, natural and effective methods to keep your dog's teeth white and clean without having to spend a lot of money or jeopardize your dog's health.

A RAW FOOD DIET: NATURE'S TOOTHBRUSH
The incredible raw food diet is nature's toothbrush, having been the ancestral diet of all carnivorous and predatory animals for millions of years. A raw food diet does not leave residue or food particles on the teeth, which turn into tartar and plaque, and the natural crushing and chewing of raw bone scrapes the teeth and keeps them clean.

BRUSHING TEETH WITH COCONUT OIL   
The amazing benefits of coconut oil for dogs are no longer a secret! Coconut oil is antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral and is a very effective deodorizer! If your dog has bad breath, give brushing with virgin, unrefined coconut oil a try. You will be impressed with the results!

AN ALL NATURAL GEL FOR DOGS WITH DENTAL DISEASE
If your dog has already developed dental disease, a great option along side a good brushing routine is adding an all natural but effective dental gel. PetzLife Oral Gel works by softening the build up on teeth and beginning to break it down so that you can brush or scrape it away. This is a natural, effective product I often recommend and have used myself on my cats!

CHEWING SCRAPES THE TEETH
By offering your dog a raw bone, an elk antler chew or a toy designed to help clean teeth via chewing can help reduce build up on the teeth, and is also an excellent preventive. Chewing is a natural, instinctual thing for a dog to do and can benefit them in terms of mental stimulation and enjoyment as well! Get a raw beef hock from your local butcher and monitor your dog as they enjoy this healthy, natural "toothbrush"!

Implementing a brushing routine with good recreational chewing is a great way to prevent dental disease in your canine companions, but there are safe and natural options for fighting dental disease too! If you have more questions about keeping your dog's mouth healthy, do not hesitate to contact me!

Yes, especially to the coconut oil and the diet. Many of our patients are on raw or homecooked and their teeth tend to be noticeably better than our patients on processed foods. A lot of people don't realize how important teeth can be - but dental disease can be a real killer! It's worth the investment.

Very interesting ...I have been giving my Golden Retriever a large raw carrot with sprayed coconut oil on it each night and she loves it...she can't eat bones as she is prone to colitis...I am going to try the coconut oil on a tooth brush to clean her teeth as she seems to love the taste of coconut oil.

Does the carrot with coconut oil help with teeth cleaning?

I have a Manchester Terrier who is 10lb dog who is 14 years young, he has very few teeth. Which types of bones and size would you suggest?

PetZLife has grain alcohol in it. My dog ended up with an inflammed liver after using this product. Please don't recommend it.

Thank you for putting that out there..... I am always afraid that products from the store will hurt my pet more than help it.

My dogs will not eat raw meat or raw bones. Strange or what> I have tried several different kinds of meat.

Try giving your dog the RAW stems from organic broccoli and/or a large chunk of sweet potato. Cleans the teeth and mine love them.

I saw something about coconut oil and baking soda for a natural toothpaste, but said not suitable for dogs. Is the baking soda bad for them? I have noticed in all the toothpastes for dogs and cats they have baking soda, so I am wondering about the coconut oil/baking soda mix.

Where is the cheapest place to get coconut oil? I'm in NFLD, Canada. Not the USA.

Please let me know if Petlife oral gel or spray is still recommended. I notice the write up on the product was posted awhile back. I am concerned about any health risks as mentioned by grain alcohol and the neem oil. I have 4 dogs, a 4lb up to 65lb. Thank you so much.

It was really nice how you suggested the use of virgin coconut oil in cleaning the teeth of my pet because of its natural anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and antiviral content. I think it's worth giving a try if I wasn't so busy with my job lately. I think, for now, I will go for taking my dog to the bet for a dental cleaning. It will be much better if a professional pet dental expert will see his mouth anyway. Thank you for sharing!

I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga.

Someone cast a black magic spell to separate me and my husband! Dr. Excellent helped me to get my ex husband back after the separation. My Husband packed out to live with his mistress and he sent me divorce papers. I tried all I could to get him back but he refused to return home and I suspected the lady used some magic spell on him to hold him down. I got to know about Dr. Excellent in a YouTube comment where i was looking for help to get my husband back and i contacted him and explain my problem to him and he did the work and my husband return back home and he apologies for the pains he put me through and we are living happily together for good. if you need any kind of help you can also contact him for help. Here his contact. Call/WhatsApp him at: +2348084273514 "Or email him at: [email protected] , check his website:https://drexcellentspellcaster.godaddysites.com .
