The Dental Health Benefits of the Freeze-Dried Raw Diet
The Dental Health
Benefits of the
Freeze-Dried Raw Diet
Did you know that by age 3, over 80% of dogs have some form of dental disease? This is a troubling statistic because good dental health is extremely important to your dog's overall health.
Poor dental health can lead to:
-
Lost or broken teeth which affects the ability to chew food
-
Organ damage due to bacteria entering the bloodstream through damaged gums
-
Bad breath (halitosis)
-
Oral pain
Thankfully, the freeze-dried raw diet boasts dental health benefits that can't be found in a conventional diet!
PLAQUE, TARTAR, AND THE ROLE
CARBOHYDRATES PLAY IN DENTAL HEALTH
Plaque is a sticky substance that forms when food particles, carbohydrates, saliva, and bacteria combine in the mouth. Plaque sticks to the teeth and, if not removed within about 24 hours, begins to mineralize and harden into tartar (also known as calculus). As tartar builds up against the gumline and gums recede, dogs become susceptible to pain, gum disease, tooth loss, and even serious diseases caused by bacteria entering the bloodstream.
Most conventional dog foods are comprised mainly of starchy carbohydrates like corn or rice. Grain free options may be made with potatoes. Unfortunately, the more carbohydrates there are in your dog's diet, the more likely and more prominent plaque will be.

Freeze-dried raw dog food is mainly comprised of protein such as beef, chicken, or turkey, and generally doesn't include starchy carbohydrates like corn, rice, or potatoes. This significantly decreases the amount of "fuel" your dog's mouth has to produce plaque.
Additionally, raw meats contain enzymes which help to protect teeth and gums and remove tartar.
A MINI TEETH CLEANING AT MEALTIME
Another great benefit of freeze-dried raw food is that while your dog crunches and chews during mealtime, the texture helps to scrape away plaque and tartar from teeth. It's similar to a mini-toothbrushing every time they eat!
