Like people…it’s just as important that your dog have healthy, strong teeth as well. Providing the occasional bone will help them in the development of strong teeth structure in a natural manner.

The occasional raw beef bones are wonderful for keeping the teeth structures of your dog clean and free from formation of plaque and the build up of bacterial organisms. Brushing your dog’s teeth on a daily basis will also help to remove plaque build up and freshen his breath as well. Be sure to only use a specially formulated dog toothpaste

Dry dog food and toys that are specially made to add strength to the tooth structure are often used as well for better teeth cleaning.
The plaque material should be removed at home to avoid any occurrence of the periodontal disease, which is more common among dogs. Dental wipes
