| Petzlife plus toothpaste?? Hi there, At our last vet visit the vet suggested our yorkie still has one of her baby teeth which she wants to extract. Is this really necessary? It doesnt seem to cause her any harm. Also, she said that the yorkie has tartar buildup and would like to put her under to remove it. I have bought Petzlife to try to take care of that but I wonder if I still need to brush with the enzimatic toothpaste as well as the Petzlife gel or just go with the Petzlife? |

| My suggestion is: I would have the puppy teeth removed if they are not coming out on their own and your pup is at least 10mos old. If not, there is still a chance they will come out on their own. By not removing them they will push the adult teeth out of line and cause an inproper bite and tartar build up between the double teeth. Petzlife should be applied, twice weekly, in the evening, with no food or water, after application. Daily brusing with a pet toothpaste should be done daily. Bud is 3 1/2 and has no tartar at all. I had one baby tooth removed at 1yr old. It was not coming out by itself and was pushing the adult tooth out of line. Also tartar build up between the two teeth. Petzlife took care of that in about a month. It takes time and effort on our part but if it keeps the dog's teeth free of tartar and having to go under it's worth the effort IMO. |
