What types of dental and oral care products are available for cats?

We offer a variety of dental and oral care products for cats, including dental cat food, dental treats, toothbrushes and toothpaste. Dental cat food is specially formulated to help reduce plaque and tartar buildup, while dental treats provide a tasty way to support your cat's oral health.

How can these products help improve my cat's dental health?

Dental cat food and dental treats work by physically removing plaque and tartar from your cat's teeth as they chew. They also contain ingredients that help to freshen breath and promote healthy gums. Toothbrushes and toothpaste provide a more hands-on approach to dental care, allowing you to clean your cat's teeth and gums directly.

How often should I use these products for my cat's dental care?

The frequency of use will depend on the specific product and your cat's needs. Dental cat food can be fed as a regular diet, while dental treats can be given daily or as recommended by your vet. Toothbrushing should ideally be done daily, but even a few times a week can make a difference. Always follow the instructions on the product packaging or consult with your vet for personalised advice.

Are these products safe for all cats, regardless of age or breed?

Dental care cat food and other dental products are generally safe for all cats, regardless of age or breed. However, it's always a good idea to consult with your vet before introducing new products into your cat's routine, particularly if your cat has any existing health conditions.

What ingredients are in dental care products?

The ingredients in dental care cat food and other products vary. However, all products are made with high-quality ingredients that are safe and beneficial for your cat's oral health. This may include special enzymes to help break down plaque, natural breath fresheners and other beneficial ingredients.

How do I properly use these dental care products for my cat?

To use dental care cat food, simply replace your cat's regular food with dental food. Dental treats can be given as a reward or snack. For toothbrushes and toothpaste, gently brush your cat's teeth and gums, ideally daily. Always follow the instructions on the product packaging.

Can these products be used alongside other dental care routines for my cat?

Yes, dental food for cats and other products can be used alongside other dental care routines. In fact, a multi-faceted approach to dental care is often the most effective. This might include regular toothbrushing, dental food, dental treats and regular vet check-ups.

What are the potential side effects, if any, of these dental care products?

Dental care products are generally safe and well-tolerated by most cats. However, some cats may experience digestive upset when switching to a new food or introducing new treats. If you notice any unusual symptoms, discontinue use and consult your vet.
