WHAT IS PERIODONTAL DISEASE?
Bacteria accumulates between the teeth and the gums, causing infection and inflammation that can lead to detrimental effects ranging from tooth abscesses to secondary complications involving the liver, heart and kidneys.
4 STAGES OF PERIODONTAL DISEASE DEVELOPMENT
STAGE 1:
PLAQUE
Plaque forms as saliva, food, and bacteria meet. If this soft, sticky film is left untreated, it combines with minerals to become hard tartar.
STAGE 2:
INFLAMED GUMS
Plaque and tartar accumulate. Gums respond with inflammation of blood vessels, swelling and collagen loss.
STAGE 3:
GINGIVITIS
Bacteria wedge between the gums and teeth (gingival sulcus), causing infection and inflammation
STAGE 4:
PERIODONTAL DISEASE
Infection below the gum line with secondary complications (tooth abscess; mobile teeth; heart, kidney & liver changes)
MYTHS
"ALL DENTAL TREATS ARE MADE THE SAME."
Some treats pack on unintentional calories. Breath freshening treats do NOT carry any nutritional value.
"PROFESSIONAL DENTAL CLEANING ARE EASY AND AFFORDABLE."
Professional dental cleanings can involve anesthesia and are expensive (up to $3,000). Not all dogs are behavioral candidates for daily brushing at home.
"WOLVES DON'T EVEN BRUSH THEIR TEETH!"
Wolves consume raw meaty bones that scrape tartar off naturally. Kibble exacerbates tartar and plaque buildup .

Frequently asked questions
Good dental health is crucial for your dog's overall well-being. Poor dental hygiene can lead to periodontal disease, tooth loss, pain, and infections affecting other organs, such as the heart, liver, and kidneys.
Common signs include bad breath, red or swollen gums, yellow or brown tartar buildup, excessive drooling, pawing at the mouth, difficulty eating, loose or missing teeth, or loss of appetite.
Real Dog offers a variety of natural chews, treats, and supplements designed to help clean your dog's teeth and support oral health.
Real Dog chews help reduce plaque and tartar buildup through natural chewing action. The mechanical process of chewing can scrape away plaque and stimulate gums.
Real Dog dental products are made to be safe and effective for all breeds and sizes. However, always supervise your dog while chewing and choose the appropriate size for your dog's chewing strength and habits.
While Real Dog products can significantly contribute to your dog's dental health, they should complement, not replace, professional dental cleanings. Regular veterinary check-ups and cleanings are essential for comprehensive dental care.
Real Dog dental chews and treats are made from natural, high-quality ingredients, free from artificial additives, preservatives, and fillers. All but the meatballs are single-ingredient treats or chews. The meatballs contain all six of the Real Ancestral (6X) DietTM components.
Begin by introducing Real Dog dental chews and treats. Ensure that your dog receives regular veterinary check-ups for professional cleanings and advice.
If your dog shows signs of dental disease, consult your veterinarian for a comprehensive dental examination and treatment plan. Incorporate Real Dog dental products into your dog's routine to help manage and prevent further dental issues.
