Veterinary Dentist’s Open Letter To All Dog Parents. What's the truth about dogs' perfect oral hygiene

Dear dog parent,

Please allow me to reveal how a simple daily routine may decrease the chances of accumulation of plaque and tartar, help maintain fresh breath and help healthy teeth supported by healthy gums.

Now, before we continue… Please be aware this goes beyond just ‘sparkling white teeth’.

In fact, good oral hygiene should be the number one priority when it comes to your dog’s health. Why? Because almost…

Everything Enters Your Dog’s System Through Their Mouth.

Good and bad. And if your dog’s teeth, gums, and tongue aren’t kept clean and healthy…

Plaque and tartar forms…and can cause a disruption of oral health.

My name is Dr. Jan Bellows, PetLab Co. Veterinary Consultant, and I’ve been a veterinarian for over 45 years.

I’m also one of two hundred and eleven Board Certified Veterinary Dentists™ in the United States.

Throughout my career, I’ve seen dogs of all shapes, sizes, and breeds come through my doors.

And no matter how different they’ve been on the outside, the number one tip I give to owners for keeping their dog happy and healthy…is maintaining the health of their teeth and gums.

A Smart Oral Hygiene Routine is Essential for Healthy Teeth and Gums.

And until now, there has been a lot of confusing information out there.

Some dental hygiene options are expensive, some are difficult, and some take a lot of time and energy on both the dog's and owner's part.

First, you must know...

The Real Enemy is Plaque

Also known as ‘Plaque Biofilm.’

This plaque is very stealth…almost undetectable at first...

Which can make it very difficult to deal with later on.

Now, there are certain signs you must look out for in your dog such as bad breath. However...

Your Dog Can’t Tell You Something is Wrong

That’s why acting before you see any signs is critical and if everything currently looks fine - the best way to help them live a long, happy life with you is to help maintain their health, which starts with their teeth.

Now, before we continue, we must remind you...

It’s not ideal to give your dog bones, antlers, or random chews to clean their teeth

While our dogs love these, they chomp them down without much care.

Additionally, they grip them tightly and chew with their back teeth which can result in damage to the teeth and in certain cases…break them, exposing the nerve.

If you’ve ever had even the slightest toothache, where the nerves are exposed, you know just how much discomfort that causes you.

And how about the gold standard tooth brushing?

Well, only 2% of pet parents brush their dog’s teeth daily.

The dirty truth (that many of us are unwilling to admit) is owners:

❌ Hate putting their hands inside their dog's slobbery mouth.

❌ Most dogs do NOT like it either.

❌ They have no idea how to hygienically store their toothbrush.

❌ They often forget to stick to the recommended 2 times a day schedule

So, while tooth brushing is still the best option - can it really be THAT good if no one does it?

I think that answer is pretty obvious.

And that’s why I’m excited to introduce to you:

The Pupex Dental Formula

The Pupex Dental Formula is made up of:

Sodium Bicarbonate - Supports white teeth and fresh breath

Found in high-quality human toothpaste, this ingredient can help target both tartar and plaque, supporting white teeth and fresh breath. 

Now, I don’t want you to simply take my word on all of this.

I want you to take the word of real pet parents like you, who’ve tried, tested, and loved Pupex products.

I add this to my dogs water daily and they don’t notice it, their breathe isn’t bad since the last year, it helps keep their breathe clean

Bernard Dominguez Verified Buyer

I’ve tried everything for my dog's bad breath… he’s had bad teeth pulled, this works miracles… I highly recommend this for you pet that suffers from chronic bad breath!!!!

Freda Davies Verified Buyer

I have given my shiba this dental formula about all his life, and it does work well. After close to 7 years, he still has that hard stuff on 2 back teeth. I still have to get his teeth cleaned once in a while. But his teeth were a lot worse without it.

Pammie Henderson Verified Buyer

It really works although it takes a little while ! I bought a similar product from a different company but was not pleased with the results so I ordered it from Pupex after seeing a Facebook ad. I tried the other product because of the price difference. I guess you get what you pay for, definitely choosing Pupex again!!

Nathan Alvarez Verified Buyer

Easy to use product he doesn’t even realize it’s in his water. Makes my dog breath smell better.
