 | Dog teeth brushing -- tooth brush and tooth paste method |
I recommend starting gauze method before going to toothbrushcooperativepet gets comfortable with the gauze and your finger in his / her mouth, then try a toothpnecessarybrush method.
Use a dog tooth brush and tooth paste made for dogs. ( you can use baking soda paste instead. ) If you brush dog's teeth often, you don't need tooth paste, use just a tooth brush dipped in the water.
Stand behind the dog when you brush teeth on a large size dog. Don't attempt it from the front.
It's fairly easy to brush teeth of large size dog, if it is co-operative.

Hold a tooth brush 45 degree to the teeth. Move a brush as if drawing a small oval shape. Do it lightly massaging the gum line at the same time. The places collect tartar most are the base of canine teeth, and the side of rear teeth |
Mouth washing to feel better.
Refreshed
When you have acquired more experience, you can brush inside of teeth row and deep back end of teeth too. You can even give him / her dental flossing, if it is nessesary.
Ask me if you can't figure out how to do it when you visit my shop for your dog's next grooming.

Taro, a 5 years old Shih Tzu gets his teeth brushed once a month when he visits my shop for grooming.
Teeth brushing only once a month has an excellent effect.

Nylon bones (dental bones )you see at pet store seem effective to prevent tartar, but you have to introduce it to your dog and play with it at puppy age. Many adult dogs are not interested in biting those bone unless they were given them at pups.
Do the exercise and teeth brushing at your own risk.
