Beyond the Toothbrush: Practical Approaches to Home Dental Care
Brushing a dog’s teeth helps prevent dental problems, keeps their breath fresh, and can even reduce the risk of more serious conditions. Easy-peasy, right? Sure, except many dogs don’t love it, which often means it isn’t the most sustainable form of home dental care for pets. Fortunately, we have lots of alternatives today. In this CE edition of the VetFolio Voice podcast, Dr. Cassi hosts Dr. Jan Bellows, who discusses home dental care options, such as water additives, dental wipes and dental chews, and even most importantly, how to talk to clients about these options. You’ll learn about Veterinary Oral Health Council (VOHC), the independent, nonprofit organization that seeks to promote and improve the oral health of pets. Dr. Bellows explains what it takes for products to be listed on the VOHC website and how it can be used as a resource for finding veterinary dental products that really work.
