Dental Health in Pets

Maintaining your pet's dental health is a very important part of caring for your pet. Calculus is the brown build-up of plaque found extending downwards on the tooth from the gum line.

Dogs and cats make much fuller use of their teeth than humans do—using them in ways we usually use our hands. It stands to reason, therefore, that maintaining canine and feline dental health is essential to their well-being (and of course pets can't wear dentures).

Therefore, the best thing you can do for your dog or cat's dental health is to embark on a prevention program and look out for your pet's teeth and gums before it's too late.

The Natural Way

Bad breath is usually the first indication that your pet's teeth and gums need attention. Bacteria in the mouth and the development of calculus produce foul-smelling breath in pets. Regular inspection of the teeth is also a good idea to establish your pet's level of dental health.

Normal teeth in pets are shiny and white all the way to the line of the gum. Any deposits or buildup of a dark yellow or brown substance on the teeth, especially near the gum line, indicates a problem with calculus.

Chewing on hard food generally cleanses the teeth of calculus, especially the tips of the teeth. However, be aware that the gum line is slightly indented and can harbor the calculus for months on end without being affected by your pet's eating.

The gums should appear a healthy pink color and there should be a clear delineation between gums and teeth.

What are the ingredients?

Gumz-n-Teeth™ is a 100% herbal formula and contains the following ingredients: Certified Organic Horsetail Herb, Conventional Spirulina Thallus, Certified Organic Dandelion.

  • Certified Organic Horsetail Herb helps to support healthy body tissue due to its high silica content. Silica is crucial to the maintenance of healthy and strong teeth, skin, bones and claws, and is the main component in all connective body tissues including the myelin sheaths around nerve cells and the membranes of the brain and spinal cord. It also contains health-promoting compounds called sterols (D'Agostino, M., Dini, A., Pizza, C., Senatore, F., and Aquino, R. Boll. Soc Ital. Biol Sper. 12-30-1984; 60(12):2241-2245).
  • Conventional Spirulina Thallus is a single-celled microorganism found in the sea and known to be an excellent source of chlorophyll. Spirulina contains vitamins (including B12 and folic acid) and carotenoids. Spirulina also makes vitamin A available for use in the body, which is important for healthy eyes, teeth and immune functioning. This sea algae has been used in traditional Chinese remedies for thousands of years as a tonic to boost wellness, support the liver and immune system functioning, and general systemic health. Human studies have shown Spirulina to promote oral health in particular (Mathew, B., Sankaranarayanan, R., Nair, P. P., Varghese, C., Somanathan, T., Amma, B. P., Amma, N. S., and Nair, M. K. Nutr. Cancer. 1995; 24(2):197-202).
  • Certified Organic Dandelion Leaf is known to contain bitter principles which have a beneficial effect on saliva production in the mouth (Kuusi T, Pyylaso H, and Autio K. Lebensm-Wiss Technol.1985; 18:347-349). It is also a source of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin A, D, C, various B vitamins, iron, lecithin, silicon, potassium, magnesium, zinc and manganese. These vitamins and minerals are all significant to the health of the digestive system, bones, teeth and gums.
  • Inactive Ingredients: Vegetable Cellulose, Organic Rice Flour.
