How to Brush Your Dog's or Cat's Teeth ?

get some special pet toothpaste in the pet store and a childs toothbruh (which is soft on the gums) and brush your pets teeth very carefully... don't forget the back teeth because those have the most bacteria on them. umm... oh make sure that the gums have no grime an when your pet starts to back away grasp the neck firmly so that your pet can't move but can still breathe clearly. thank you

Reply:The same way you would your own. Gently, up and down motion with a dog toothbrush or soft bristled child toothbrush. It is reccommended by my dog's vet that you do it everyday and we do and our dog's teeth are SO white. They could do crest commercials(:
Reply:Buy Aquafresh or Colgate and a battery operated toothbrush and clean it.

Reply:First, the equipment: Most vets and pet stores carry rubber pet toothbrushes that look like a long thimble or cap you wear on a finger and have short, soft rubber bristles on one side. You can also use a soft toothbrush. You will also need some pet toothpaste, which is formulated differently from human toothpaste, in part so that it will taste good to your pet and not do any harm if ingested.





Second, technique: find a time when you pet is calm and relaxed, especially when starting out. Put some animal toothpaste on the toothbrush and gently pull the lips away on one side. Gently brush as you would your own teeth. If your pet is reluctant, try to be quick, or do only a little bit at a time, rewarding the animal with treats or breaks in between sessions. Work up to longer/more thorough cleanings. Between the good taste of the toothpaste, the attention, and rewards, you should soon be able to brush all your animal's teeth in one go.





Most vets recommend brushing your animal's teeth at least once a week. Though chew toys and treats can help, they're not the same as brushing.





Also ask your vet about professional cleanings on occasion to avoid serious health problems from tooth decay.
