Dogs have a reputation for rarely turning their nose up at whatever is presented to them in a bowl but that generalization masks the eating sensitivities inherent to many dogs. A scan through the ingredients in some water additives may cause mild alarm but rest assured that the ever-vigilant food authorities maintain close scrutiny on their composition. After some of the negativity in the ingredients section, it should be noted that the chances of dental water additives actually leading to problems are minimal and that, as advised elsewhere in this feature, they do provide significant benefits to animal and owner. For most products, some careful selection would be rewarded in choosing one which best suits your dog but, to be honest, dental water additives are pretty homogenous. Oratene contains the patented LP3 Enzyme System which releases enzymes into the water; enzymes which help dogs to break down food and absorb its nutrients, thereby helping to keep their gums healthy and clean. Managing your pup’s dental care can take time, money, and patience. While daily tooth brushing and regularly-scheduled professional dental cleanings are the gold standards of good canine dental care, products like water additives may help keep your dog’s teeth and gums healthy in between, Klein says.
Out of all those we reviewed, Pet King Brands Zymox Water Additive is quite expensive. You’ll going to be paying just as much as most other expensive water additives. However, you’re getting a much smaller bottle. That leads to you paying even more for a very similar product.And a final reminder: never use human dental products on a dog, such as human toothpaste or human mouthwash. Sodium citrate – The salt from citrus acid is called sodium citrate. It develops naturally in citrus fruits, corn, and other foods, and can prevent the build-up of tartar and plaque. It also regulates the pH of the mouth, which contains an overabundance of bacteria.
Based on that 80+% statistic and the inevitability of bad breath, it is a given that dogs will encounter dental issues, so this article is not focused on how to recognize them but how to prevent their onset. We also hope to provide advice which will ultimately alleviate any discomfort and/or pain caused by dental concerns…and to improve the animal’s breath. Veterinary advice is to brush your dog’s teeth daily but, as mentioned above, that isn’t always easy. There is, however, an alternative (or an aid) in the form of dental water additives. What are Dental Water Additives? Cleaning your dog’s teeth can be difficult and time consuming. Powered by baking soda and coconut water, Arm & Hammer Daily Water Additive is a functional, advanced and delicious vitamin-enriched dental formula for adult dogs. Coconut oil – Coconut has antifungal and antibacterial properties that naturally fight off infection and help support the immune system. Coconut oil also has a high concentration of lauric acid, a beneficial saturated fatty acid that kills harmful bacteria that cause bad breath. Mix one tablespoon of coconut oil in your dog’s daily water content. It’s not a secret that pets are a lot of responsibility, particularly when it comes to maintaining their health. Like water additives for humans, water additives for dogs often come in a squeeze bottle to easily mix into your pup’s water dish. Others come in gel form.If you do try water additives but don’t see any dental health improvements, it may mean your pet is dealing with a more serious health issue. Xylotil is a sweetener but one which has been known to cause stomach problems to dogs which have proved fatal. It is still included in some canine dental products but should also be avoided. As the plaque on your dog’s teeth accumulates, it adheres to calcium deposits, which become tartar. “Tartar buildup then leads to gum disease ( periodontal disease), and diseased gums can then lead to poor overall health, affecting other organs in the body such as kidneys and the heart,” says Klein.
