Tips on Brushing Your Pet's Teeth
Introduce a brushing program to pets gradually. Avoid over-restraining your pet and keep brushing sessions short and positive. A cat or small dog can be held in your lap. Praise and reassure your pet throughout the process. At first, dip a finger into beef bouillon for dogs or tuna water for cats. Rub the soaked finger gently over the pet's mouth and teeth. Make the initial sessions short and positive. Gradually, introduce gauze over the finger or a dental wipe, and gently scrub the teeth in a circular motion. After your pet is comfortable with the process, you can introduce a soft toothbrush designed for pets. Don't use toothpaste designed for people because it could upset the animal's stomach. Instead, use pet toothpaste. Finally, supplement brushing with a rinse designed especially for pets. This will prevent bad breath and kill bacteria.
