There are many, many dental products on the market today. Some of them even advertise that they can take the place of brushing and dental cleanings. But the evidence shows that your first and best defense against bad breath, swollen gums, plaque, and periodontal disease is a dental exam and cleaning with your veterinarian, coupled with daily toothbrushing. Dental chews and treats can be a good addition to your pet\u2019s daily oral health routine. But they shouldn\u2019t be used in place of tooth brushing and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.feltonveterinaryhospital.com\/services\/dentistry.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">regular professional dental cleanings<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dental Chews and Treats<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We mentioned that not all dental chews and treats are created equal. Luckily, there is an organization that has given it\u2019s seal of approval to some of the treats and chews available today. The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vohc.org\/all_accepted_products.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Veterinary Oral Health Council<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is an organization that evaluates pet products to see if they meet standards for reducing plaque and tartar. Make sure the dental chew or treat you offer your pet has their seal of approval. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, be aware that although veterinary dentists find the VOHC approved products safe and effective, the VOHC does <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">not<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> test specifically for safety. Don\u2019t leave your pet alone with any chew or treat, and be aware of risks when giving anything to your pet. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Precautions With Dental Chews and Treats <\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are some dental health treats advertised which are downright unsafe, or full of fat and unwholesome ingredients that are bad for your pet. Here are a few things to keep in mind when choosing a dental treat for your pet. If you have questions, call us.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>Rawhide bones \u2014<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> these can be effective against plaque and tartar, but can also be swallowed in large chunks by some dogs, putting them at risk for gastrointestinal obstruction &#8211; and possibly a surgery. Rawhides are also quite high in fat, so watch your pet carefully, make sure they actually chew them, and limit calories in other places if you give one.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>Avoid dried pig ears and hard bones \u2014<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in addition to high fat content (which could push some dogs into pancreatitis), hard chews, hard plastic bones, sterilized beef bones or cow hooves are likely to cause tooth fractures and other problems. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>Cooked bones \u2014<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> these are too hard and unyielding to offer any plaque prevention, and they could cause a tooth fracture or a gastrointestinal perforation or obstruction.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is generally accepted that chews and treats that are soft and allow the teeth to sink in are the most effective against periodontal disease. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.feltonveterinaryhospital.com\/#contact\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Give us a call<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> if you have any questions about your pet\u2019s dental care and health.
