Dog’s teeth are important tools for chewing and biting food, especially hard bones. Just like human teeth, when food debris remains in the gaps between teeth, it will cause bacteria to breed, causing dental caries or gum inflammation, affecting the dog's appetite and digestion. Therefore, as an owner, you must learn to brush your dog’s teeth to keep your dog’s oral health.

First go to a pet supply store or animal clinic and buy a few dog-specific toothbrushes and toothpaste. If you really can’t buy it, you can use a soft-bristled toothbrush used by young children instead.
