New Diet "Brushes Teeth"

Hills Pet Food Inc. has recently released a revolutionary new diet for dogs and cats called T/D. This diet has been proven in controlled scientific studies to reduce plaque bacteria (the cause of tartar development and periodontitis) by 30-40% with regular feeding. No other diet, treat or toy can make that claim!

This unique ability is due to the patented structure of the T/D pellets. Hills has developed a process to keep all the fibers in the diet oriented in the same direction. The pellets are larger than standard foods so the pet must bite through them. When the teeth penetrate the pellet, the fibers act as a mechanical brush to wipe the bacteria from the surface.  The accompanying photograph shows the difference in tartar accumulation for a dog fed standard feed (bottom) versus a dog fed T/D.  (click on the picture for enlargement). 

In keeping with their commitment to risk factor management, Hills has designed this food to be an excellent maintenance diet for adult pets over 1 year of age. Like all Hills products, T/D has the following characteristics:

 

Characteristic Impact on your pet

Teeth Harming Treats:

Did you know that most of the fractured teeth that we see are caused by inappropriate treats?  Unfortunately, this is the case.  Many people think that bones and cow hooves are great treats for dogs. These substances are very hard and will frequently crack the teeth.  Therefore, we recommend that you use nylon chew toys such as Nyla-bone and Nyla-frisbee.  Rawhide is another acceptable treat and may help exercise the gums.
