The Pet Food Institute shares tips on how to care for your pets’ teeth

Many pet owners believe that their pet’s overall wellbeing is based on their ability to provide them a well-balanced diet however there are several factors that affect a dog or cat’s health such as exercise, hygiene, and oral care. Experts remind owners never to overlook the importance of their pet’s dental hygiene to prevent their pets from developing gum disease. 

Gum disease is a bacterial infection of the mouth that often leads to bad breath and tooth loss. If fully neglected, gum disease may lead to life-threatening illnesses such as kidney, liver, or heart damage. Pets with gum disease will show an abnormal way of chewing food and reduced appetite, along with bad breath, broken or discolored teeth, blood in the water bowl or toys, and swelling in areas around the mouth. 

Committed to educating the Filipino pet community on proper pet care, the Pet Food Institute (PFI) shares tips on how pet owners can protect their pet’s choppers.
