We love our pets, but we don't always love their breath. While mild "doggy breath" is normal, a strong, foul odor coming from your pet's mouth is usually the first indicator of plaque and tartar buildup.
What Causes Bad Breath?
Just like in humans, bad breath (halitosis) in pets is primarily caused by bacteria. When food particles and saliva mix, they form a sticky film called plaque. If plaque isn't brushed away, it hardens into tartar, providing a breeding ground for odor-causing bacteria under the gumline.
💡 Recommended Deodorizing Routine:
To actively manage bad breath and support gum health, we recommend combining physical wiping with our Oral Care Gel.
Important Note
HICC PET oral products are intended for routine hygiene care and odor management. They are not intended to act as a medical substitute for periodontal disease. If your pet has extremely red, bleeding gums, loose teeth, or refuses to eat hard food, please consult your veterinarian for a professional dental cleaning.
