MYTH-BUSTING MONDAY
“Dental chews are enough to keep my pet’s teeth clean.”
Not quite. Dental chews are helpful—but they’re only one piece of the puzzle.
Here’s what vet Sophie recommends:
1. Daily brushing (the gold standard)
2. Dental chews (for mechanical plaque control)
3. Water additives or gels (for extra support)
Why it matters:
Most dogs and cats show signs of dental disease by age 3. That means plaque, inflammation, discomfort—and costly dental procedures later on.
The good news?
Preventative care can be simple.
At Animail, we send you everything you need, vetted by our in-house vet, tailored to your pet.
