Want to add three to five years to your dog's life? Try brushing their teeth. Sound silly?
Well, research from the world of human medicine is increasingly linking poor dental/oral health with all kinds of ailments you wouldn't normally connect with your teeth.
The world-famous Mayo Clinic's website discusses possible links between poor oral health and a slew of health problems, including: clogged arteries, cardiovascular disease, heart disease, stroke, Osteoporosis, Alzheimer's, and even eating disorders.
Those are some pretty striking connections, and it's no different for pets. Many veterinarians believe that brushing your dog's teeth at least three times per week can add three to five years to his life.
"But Derek," you say, "brushing my dog's teeth is a pain!" Sure it's no picnic, but did you know that more than 80% of dogs suffer from periodontal disease by the age of two? Caused by plaque (bad bacteria in the mouth), periodontal disease destroys the gums and supporting bone structure of the teeth. This can cause tooth loss and/or infections.
Those infections don't just cause bad breath; they can also spread to other areas of the body and lead to issues with lungs and the respiratory system, brain infections, and much more. Like humans, plaque buildup in the mouth can eventually break off and make its way into the blood stream: causing inflammation of the arteries and increased risks of heart attack and stroke.
Long story short, keeping your dog's mouth squeaky clean is worth it; and we have the products that will help you do it with less hassle, and naturally...lucky you.
