Brushing your dogs teeth is an important part of their dental health. Here are some options for what to use to brush your dogs teeth:

1. Pet toothbrush: Commercial toothbrushes are available that are specifically designed for use in dogs. These include brushes with angled handles, brushes with multiple heads, small brushes that fit comfortably in your hand, and finger toothbrushes designed to fit over the tip of your finger.

2. Human toothbrush: Some pet owners find it easier to use a regular human toothbrush, especially when just beginning to brush their dogs teeth. Childrens toothbrushes or small-headed toothbrushes with soft bristles work well for large and small breed dogs alike.

3. Homemade toothbrush: You can also make your own toothbrush by wrapping a small piece of gauze around your finger and gently rubbing your dogs teeth and gums.

Regardless of the type of toothbrush you use, it is important to be gentle and go slowly, as it is easy to accidentally poke the tip of the toothbrush against the gums and cause some irritation. It is also important to use toothpaste specifically formulated for dogs, as human toothpaste is not safe for them to swallow. Pet toothpaste is available in several different flavors that are appetizing to dogs, including peanut butter and chicken. Dental chews are sold in most pet stores and can be used as an occasional treat, but they don’t clean as effectively as regular toothbrushes or finger brushes, and add unnecessary calories to your dog’s diet.
