Does Your Pet Have Bad Breath? Oral Care Probiotic, ProBioraPet®, Champions Pets' Oral Health

TAMPA, Fla., Feb. 25, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Poor oral health in pets is often the root cause of bad breath – and costly dental work and extractions. ProBioraPet®, a safe, veterinarian-recommended oral care probiotic specifically developed for dogs and cats, offers help for both.

Developed by ProBiora Healthᵀᴹ, each scoop contains a patented, science-based probiotic blend which helps improve pets' breath and, even more importantly, their oral health between dental cleanings at the vet's office. ProBioraPet is formulated specifically for oral care versus commonly known digestive probiotics, which are designed to improve gut health.

"Dogs and cats experience very similar oral care issues that people do," says ProBiora Health CEO Christine Koski. "The same 'battle' occurs in a pet's mouth that humans also experience – good bacteria must overcome the bad. We all love our pets and this patented formula is proven. Simply mix the all-natural powder, which is tasteless and odorless, into the pet's food daily. It's one of the easiest and most effective ways to boost overall pet health."

According to the American Veterinary Dental Society (AVDS), 80 percent of dogs and 70 percent of cats show signs of oral disease by age three. Without proper veterinary and home preventive care, pathogenic bacteria in the mouth overgrow and promote plaque and tartar buildup which can lead to periodontal disease.

Similar findings can be found on PetMd.com. Poor oral hygiene in dogs is linked to other health issues, including diabetes and heart disease, and it can even lead to a broken jaw. Dogs can be very good at hiding pain, and owners may not even realize there's a problem.

"The patented ProBiora3® bacteria enters the mouth and saliva activates the freeze-dried probiotics which attach themselves to the teeth and gum tissue," says Martin Handfield, M.Sc., PhD, a researcher who worked on the development of ProBiora products. The ProBiora3® strain establishes Colony Forming Units (CFU) of live, active bacteria on the surface of the teeth and deep beneath the gum line.

Oral probiotics reinforce the positive bacteria in a pet's mouth and crowd out the unhealthy bacteria, including those that can case gum problems and create bad breath. Plus, just like in humans, poor oral health in pets can not only cause bad breath, but also negatively impact overall health. Compromised oral health in pets has been linked to the painful loss of teeth, heart disease, cancer, renal failure, diabetes and is believed to be a cause of preventable premature death.
