"Pomegranate-infused water additive: The secret to maintaining your dog's dental health"
A new study published in Frontiers in Veterinary Science suggests that a water additive containing pomegranate extract can help reduce plaque and tartar buildup in dogs, promoting healthy gums and potentially limiting the occurrence of periodontal disease. The study found that dogs who received the additive in their drinking water for 30 days after a professional dental cleaning had significantly lower levels of plaque and tartar compared to the control group. The researchers believe that the additive works by limiting the growth of oral bacteria and preventing the formation of bacterial biofilms. Daily oral hygiene, including brushing and the use of water additives, is essential for preventing periodontal diseases in dogs.
