Toothbrushing
As vets we know that the gold standard for oral hygiene home care is tooth brushing. The difficulties lie in client compliance and also how effective the tooth brushing is when performed.
Pet Smile Month is pleased to announce that two of the major players in oral hygiene have joined forces to try and make life easier for clients to provide effective home care.
The Petosan® toothbrush is excellently designed to provide the most efficient cleaning. The revolutionary double sided head effectively cleans both sides of the tooth at once. In addition the bristles are gently angled downwards to help clean into the sub-gingival space. This combination of features dramatically increases the effectiveness of the brushing.
The full range of Petosan® toothbrushes are available from the PetSmile Vet Store or your wholesaler. See Petosan for more details.
Logic® Oral Hygiene Dental Gel is highly palatable, suitable for both cats and dogs and contains a patented formula of naturally occurring enzymes which controls the bacteria responsible for the development of plaque and bad breath.
A surfactant ensures the active constituents are maintained in contact with the surface of the teeth and gums. Here, they help destroy existing plaque and prevent the formation of new plaque. In addition, mild abrasives in the gel boost the mechanical action of saliva.

Bacterial Burden
It makes sense to rinse even the ‘simple’ dental procedures with Chlorhexidine solution or CLS. This benefits both your staff and the patients.
