Many pet owners remain unaware of the benefits efficient dental care can provide their beloved pets. According to Fetch by WebMD, some key benefits of brushing a pet’s teeth include preventing the build-up of plaque, tartar, and calculus, examining the mouth for signs of trauma (ie, broken or fractured teeth), and beyond. Encouraging owners to establish a regular dental health routine is a crucial step, and it starts by providing them with oral care suggestions.

Below are 3 pet toothbrushes Reader’s Digest recommends sharing with clients to help prevent and protect their pets from several oral diseases.
