Natural Care for Teeth and Gums
A bright white set of teeth, pink gums, and breath without unpleasant odors are, unfortunately, increasingly rare in our pets these days. Especially as our dog or cat gets older, discoloration of teeth and gums often occurs. During every cuddling session, you might find yourself trying not to breathe too deeply to avoid the strong mouth odor of your beloved pet.
Also, in the case of daily grooming of cats, their foul-smelling saliva can sometimes make those who are more sensitive to smells prefer to keep their distance. Here, you can learn what is important for the natural care of teeth and gums.
Understanding the Causes of Bad Breath in Pets
The Role of Bacteria and Fungi
The primary cause of bad breath is usually bacteria and fungi in the animal's mouth. These microorganisms are responsible for plaque formation.
What is Plaque?
Plaque, or dental tartar, is a buildup that contains several layers, including food residues, proteins, carbohydrates, phosphates, and microorganisms. It accumulates on teeth, particularly in areas not reached by natural or artificial cleaning methods.
Consequences of Plaque Buildup
Plaque can lead to dental issues such as caries, periodontitis, and gingivitis. Microorganisms in plaque form a biofilm, producing acids that damage tooth enamel and dentin, leading to caries. Some microorganisms trigger an immune response, causing gum inflammation.
Bad Breath and its Intensification
Some plaque microorganisms produce sulfur compounds, which result in bad breath. This odor intensifies as these microorganisms multiply.
The Formation of Tartar
Over time, plaque absorbs minerals and becomes hard, forming tartar. Tartar provides an additional surface for bacterial colonization, exacerbating dental problems.
Natural ingredients in dentaVet products
Frankincense
Frankincense has been used for various purposes since ancient times. The first documentation of the use of frankincense for dental care dates back to the thirteenth century. Since then, frankincense has been particularly used for strengthening the gums.
Fennel
In addition to many well-known features, fennel is also recognized for its high content of the essential oils anethole and fenchol. Anethole is traditionally used in human oral care products.
Eggshells
The rougher surface of eggshells provides a gentle abrasion that helps remove dental plaque and discoloration.
How Diet Affects Breath
Diet and Bad Breath
The diet can be a key factor in the development of bad breath. Many commercial pet foods contain synthetic additives, preservatives, attractants, and sugars. Over time, these ingredients can negatively impact the natural oral flora of pets.
Consequences of Dental Issues
When serious dental problems arise, a veterinarian's intervention is often essential. Dental treatments often require anesthesia, which can cause significant stress to the animal's overall health.
Preventive Measures
Regular and sufficient dental hygiene is as crucial in pet care as a species-appropriate diet. To support this, cdVet offers dentaVet Breath Fresh, dentaVet Oil, and dentaVet Gel. These products provide an easy and stress-free way to maintain daily dental care, complementing a healthy diet for optimal oral health.
The respiratory tract is where most farms have the greatest performance reserves. Optimal respiratory condition and thus optimized respiration have a positive influence on feed conversion and intake. With optimal respiratory condition, the susceptibility to respiratory infections is low.In nature, the animal would absorb essential oils via the fresh plants. This is hardly guaranteed in the stable keeping of ruminants, calves and pigs. The active substances contained in the essential oils are important for the condition of the respiratory tract and also for digestion. In particular, the cleaning of the respiratory tract is especially important in relation to the high germ and dust load in the stables. TurboBronchial Powder is a matter of course in performance assurance for many farms. It can be used throughout the entire fattening period.Tailored to the different needs of the feeding method, you will find TurboBronchial Powder in different variants:TurboBronchial (liquid - concentrate)TurboBronchial PowderTurboBronchial Drinking Water SGTurboBronchial Liquid

Complementary feed (powder) for horsesFeeding-related support for a stable digestionThe horse's microbial digestion is the basis for a healthy horse. It provides vitamins, breaks down food into essential nutrients, and cares for the intestinal mucosa. However, we are still unable to say what a healthy intestinal microbiome actually looks like. If you look at nature, horses have a wealth of secondary plant substances at their disposal that also influence healthy digestion. Prebiotic plant components form the nutritional basis for a species-rich microbiome. Essential oils can displace pathogenic germs. You will find all of this in EquiGreen Prebiotic NP, which supports your horse in times of stress or builds up a healthy intestinal microbiome as part of our intestinal sanitation program.EquiGreen Prebiotic NP contains a special mineral complex that has toxin-binding capabilities. In particular, it supports the intestine in the binding power of liquids (e.g. in liquid feces).

Psyllium husks are a rich source of soluble fiber. The powder swells to many times its original volume when combined with water. So-called mucilage polysaccharides are found in the husks of the seeds and are responsible for the pronounced swelling behavior and high water retention. These mucilage substances naturally increase the feed volume and are thus excellently suited as a low-carbohydrate satiety supplement.
