Daily Dental Care. BY THE NUMBERS.

Dental disease affects 80% of adult dogs1.

Dental disease affects up to 96% of senior dogs over 12 years of age2.

Only 14% of pets receive dental care by a vet3.

Only 2% of pet parents brush their dog’s teeth4.

Why your dog’s
dental health matters

Dental disease is the number one health issue for dogs, affecting 80% of adult dogs1 and up to 96% of senior dogs2. That’s why it’s more important than ever to take an active role in your pup’s at-home dental care.  Poor oral health can negatively impact your dog’s overall health, unless you give the right combination of care.

Why your dog’s
dental health matters

Plaque and tartar aren’t your best friend’s best friend. And bad doggie breath is no one’s best friend. But daily brushing isn’t always easy, for you or your dog. That’s why we recommend a WHIMZEES® a day between yearly vet visits. Giving your dog a WHIMZEES® daily dental chew is the most convenient, effective and playful way to reduce plaque, tartar and bad breath; plaque can start to build up in as little as 24 hours.5

Vet Care + Daily WHIMZEES Care = Total Dog Dental Care

“The importance of looking after your dog’s teeth is critical not just to their oral health but to their total wellbeing. Left untreated, dental disease can cause not just tooth loss and severe pain but also systemic health issues such as heart, kidney and liver disease.”
