Dr. B’s Pantyhose Trick: Feline-Friendly Toothbrushing
Dr. B understands the challenges of getting feline friends on board with toothbrushing. He shares, “I like to use pantyhose as my toothbrush for cats. It fits around the finger, giving pet parents better control. Soft and abrasive, it’s generally well-tolerated, making dental care easier.”

Dr. Lewis suggests a unique approach to toothbrushing. “Feed your pet’s favorite treat during toothbrushing. Positive reinforcement is key! Brushing your teeth while enjoying a snack is better than not brushing at all. Let’s turn dental care into a treat-filled bonding experience!”

Dr. Clarke’s Toothpaste Treat Trick
Dr. Clarke, our cat aficionado, recommends finding a toothpaste that feels like a treat. “If your pet enjoys the toothpaste, the whole process becomes easier. Make toothbrushing a joint activity during your teeth-brushing routine. It’s a simple way to seamlessly integrate dental care into your pet’s day.”

Dr. Mkhitarian’s Daily Dental Prescription
Dr. Mkhitarian stresses the importance of daily toothbrushing. “Once a month at the groomer doesn’t cut it. Daily toothbrushing is key for effectiveness. Monthly sessions at the groomers may only move bacteria around and could be painful for pets with dental issues.”

Dr. Pizzillo’s Preventative Dental Cleanings
Dr. Pizzillo advocates for toothbrushing but acknowledges that it may not always be feasible. “Yearly dental preventative cleanings are the second-best option. Start them early and, in some cases, more frequently for optimal preventative care. It’s an investment in your pet’s lifelong dental health.”
