Pet oral care is one of the most effective measures a pet owner can undertake to maintain the overall health of the pet and to prevent associated healthcare problems. Pet oral care also constitutes one of the most critical functions of hygiene and comfort for the pet and even prevents the transmission of infectious diseases to other pets or animals. Pet’s teeth, apart from the usage of home care dental products, should be checked once annually.

Common symptoms of oral pet problems include broken or loose teeth, bad breath, extra or retained teeth, discolored teeth, and pain and bleeding from the mouth. Some of the causes of oral pet problems include malocclusion, broken or fractured jaw, periodontal disease, infected teeth or abscesses and palate defects such as cleft palates. For some canine and feline, periodontal disease is the most common dental problem. Hence, oral care of the pets becomes necessary, which has increased the demand for pet oral care products.
