Brushing is just as beneficial to your pet’s teeth as it is to yours. Regular brushing can prevent bad breath and removes plaque and tartar buildup. Short, 1-2 minute brushing sessions make a huge difference in overall dental health.

When brushing, use pet-safe toothbrush or finger brush with toothpaste like Nylabone’s Natural Toothpaste. Focus on the outer parts of the teeth, brushing near the gum line in a circular motion. Brushing options depend on what works best for you and your pet.
