I think pet dental care is hugely important - but I must admit I've been a bit lax with it lately myself. I give them pet teeth cleaning chew treats, but it's been a little while since I actually brushed their teeth.
It's amazing though the correlation good dental/oral health has with avoiding disease -- I'm sure I even read about it being related in humans. I think it was an article about the benefits of regular flossing and that helping to avoid heart disease...amazing, right?
I can't believe the figure they quoted in your article though, that around 80% of pets over 3 years old have some sort of periodontal disease - that's such a high number. I appreciate you posting this as it's been a big wake up call for me that I need to ensure I am more regular with cleaning my pets teeth!
