Healthy Mouth Dental Water Additive

In the fall of 2012, two of our doctors, Dr. Miranda Thomassen and Dr. Adrienne Kanne, attended continuing education meetings in Colorado hosted by Veterinary Dental Specialist, Tony Woodword. 

We have since expanded our dental practice to include much more restorative work, including more dental sealants, dental treatment, more digital dental radiography (x-rays) and surgical extractions.  As much as all of the doctors and technicians have loved learning advanced dental information and techniques, we love most of all when we can prevent dental problems in your pets in the first place!

One of the changes we are most excited about in the dental care at Gentle Doctor Animal Hospitals is the availability of a water additive called Healthy Mouth.

Healthy Mouth is a water additive for dogs and cats that slows the progression of dental disease.  Healthy Mouth aids in dissolving plaque before it hardens to tartar – that horrible hardened brownish yellow material on your pets’ teeth.  Healthy Mouth also contributes to gingival (gum) health.

Of course we would only offer this to you if we knew for sure that…

• Healthy Mouth is safe.
• Healthy Mouth does not taste gross.
• Healthy Mouth actually works!

We knew already that the Healthy Mouth water additive is 100% SAFE, so we enlisted the help of our own pets and set out to prove that Healthy Mouth does not taste gross AND it actually works.

First we asked Noodle the Poodle…

Then we asked Max the Cat…

In fact, we asked 35 of our own dogs and 35 of our own cats, and they liked Healthy Mouth water as much as plain water.  Success.

Next, we wanted to see how well Healthy Mouth actually worked.  We took these same good-natured pets of ours and performed dental procedures on the ones who were due and continued using Healthy Mouth water additive afterwards in place of their normal water.

And…YES!  It does work as it should.

So now, we offer it to YOU, with the promise that, as always, we will only offer you treatments, procedures and products that are so great we would give them to our very own pets!

We recommend Healthy Mouth water additive for every dog and cat to slow the formation of tartar and slow the progression of dental disease.  Use it with regular tooth brushing, regular dental check ups (which your pet receives with every medical visit!) and regular dental care.

Here’s to continued excellent dental health for your pets and ours!  We want only the very best for them all!
