National Smile Month 2023 : Brush for better dental health

National Smile Month is a charity campaign all about championing the benefits of having good oral health and promoting the value of a healthy smile.

Between 15 May and 15 June, the Oral Health Foundation will be raising awareness of important health issues and ready to put a smile on everybody’s face.

Oral Health Foundation want you to join in and make a positive difference to the oral health of millions of people – and so we thought we  should also include our pets!

Vetschoice antibacterial, enzymatic, and abrasive Toothpaste is the most effective way to control dental plaque.  Use it daily using the convenient finger toothbrush supplied with the paste. Dogs and cats often tolerate a finger toothbrush better than a regular brush and the delicious beefy taste of the toothpaste will mean that your pet looks forward to teeth brushing every day! We also have regular small toothbrushes for pets that will accept or prefer a bigger brush.

Vetschoice Dental Gum Wipes are the next best thing to brushing. Our handy wipes mean that you can keep on top of your pet’s dental hygiene quickly and easily, especially when on the move.

On top of this, Vetschoice Plaqaid water additive allows for healthy dental support. By simply adding this to your pet’s freshwater every day, you can help reduce the bacteria in the saliva and on the teeth or gums. Not all pets take to Plaqaid® straightaway so start with a small amount first and then gradually build-up to the recommended daily amount.
