Cat Toothpaste

Cleaning your cat's teeth at home is easy with the right cat dental care products, such as toothbrushes and toothpaste. To supplement your cat's at-home dental health routine, you might also try cat dental wipes, chews, water additives, and dental gel, all designed to keep your cat's mouth and teeth clean between brushings. 

That said, while home dental care can support overall oral health on a daily basis, professional dental cleanings at a vet provide a deeper level of cleaning. Vet dental cleanings can remove plaque and tartar buildup that brushing doesn't. They also allow a trained professional to thoroughly examine your cat's oral health.

Cats should never use human toothpaste as it may contain potentially harmful ingredients. Human toothpaste is not designed to be swallowed, whereas cat toothpaste is, making it a much safer alternative for your furry friend.

The best cat toothpaste is one that's specifically formulated for felines. Enzymatic toothpaste for cats is particularly effective because enzymes break down plaque and tartar on your cat's teeth. One popular option is C.E.T Enzymatic Toothpaste for Cats & Dogs, which many veterinarians recommend for its effectiveness in supporting cat dental health.

To brush your cat's teeth, gradually introduce them to the toothbrush and toothpaste to help them get used to the process. Some cats can be resistant, so consistent training is crucial. 

Always use a soft-bristled toothbrush and apply a small amount of toothpaste to the brush. Gently lift your cat's lip and brush their teeth in circular motions. 

Be patient throughout the process. If your cat shows any signs of stress or fear, stop what you're doing and give them time to calm down and relax before trying again. Struggling with tooth brushing? Schedule an appointment with a licensed veterinarian today!

The cat toothpaste flavor is more important than you might think. A delectable toothpaste may make your cat more receptive to having their teeth brushed. Many cats enjoy flavors like poultry and mint. Some popular options include C.E.T. Enzymatic Dog & Cat Poultry Flavor Toothpaste and C.E.T. Enzymatic Dog & Cat Vanilla-Mint Flavor Toothpaste. These flavors can help make the experience more enjoyable and positive, so your cat will be more willing to have their teeth brushed next time.
