Almost four out of five adult dogs suffer from gum diseases, which are caused by tartar buildup and plaque. Just like we humans need daily oral care to keep our gums and teeth healthy, our dogs too need an effective oral care routine to reduce oral diseases. The Pedigree Dentastix is a good way of maintaining oral hygiene in our canines. It is a tasty treat, shaped like an X, that help dislodge food stuck in your pet’s teeth. It has an abrasive texture that stimulates saliva flow, which washes away the dislodged food particles. Apart from its unique shape and special texture, the active ingredients present in it are scientifically proven to help reduce tartar buildup by up to 80-percent.
