What is Healthy Gums?

Designed by a holistic veterinarian, Healthy Gums is a potent infused herbal product with added nutrients for gum and oral health: coenzyme Q10, vitamin C, and zinc. It does not contain alcohol or harsh ingredients that can cause further irritation of the gums.

The base of this product is medium chain triglyceride (MCT) oil. Unlike regular coconut oil, MCT oil remains in a liquid state at room temperature. It is known for its incredible ability to keep skin tissue healthy and provide nutrition to the layers of the skin. Furthermore, MCT oil helps to maintain the natural immunity of the tissues, assisting the skin's barrier capability.

What is Healthy Gums used for?

Periodontal health is something every dog owner needs to be aware of once a canine reaches age two to three. Multiple factors determine oral health status and these will become more critical as your pet ages. In particular, consider the type of diet your pet eats (including treats) and anything else your pet chews.

The bacteria in the mouth (which builds up between the teeth and gums) will cause bad breath and this is a first clue that oral health needs attention. If not dealt with, the issue can lead to problems. Regular hygiene is important for the overall health and comfort of your dog.

Healthy Gums is designed to:

  • Soothe gums and oral membranes
  • Balance the normal bacterial growth in the mouth

Healthy Gums can be used at any time, regardless of the condition of the gums. As a good measure, use Healthy Gums intermittently to keep the oral environment balanced.

Please consult with your veterinarian for a complete oral health program if your pet shows signs of canine gum issues.

A note from our veterinarian...

The bottom line is:  maintaining good oral health supports your pet's comfort and the ability to eat well to ensure proper nutrition. Overall good health depends in part upon good oral health for the lifetime of your pet. You can learn about routine oral hygiene specific to your pet.

Good oral health includes:

  • Ability to eat hard foods
  • Wants to eat
  • Does not have "dragon breath"
  • Teeth look white all the way to the gumline
  • Behaviour is normal

Talk to your veterinarian if you notice anything in your pet's mouth or on the teeth so you can develop a plan. Healthy Gums is an excellent addition to an oral hygiene strategy.

Nutrition:

Many references talk about kibble cleaning a dog's teeth. This is simply not true. Consider giving your canine a "natural toothbrush" of raw bones every week to help maintain oral health and naturally scrape the teeth as your dog gnaws on the bones. Many experts feel that a raw meat diet is the best in terms of oral health. Talk to your butcher about raw bones for your dog. You can keep them in the freezer and even give them to your dog frozen to avoid any risk with bacteria. We recommend letting your dog chew these outside as they can be messy! Take them away after a couple hours and never give raw meat to your dog if it has been at room temperature long enough to spoil. Always give raw (uncooked) bones rather than leftover, cooked bones.

Healthy Gums is Formulated With:

  • Calendula flower (Calendula officinalis):  The yellow-orange petals of Calendula flowers have shown notable antimicrobial and natural antiseptic-like properties. Used to support normal healing of the skin, Calendula also soothes inflamed skin and has been used for gingivitis.
  • Marshmallow root (Althea officinale):  Marshmallow root is high in mucilage which soothes and protects the delicate tissues of the mouth and gums. 
  • Goldenseal root (Hydrastis canadensis):  Goldenseal has been shown to have powerful, natural antimicrobial properties and is especially beneficial for conditions involving the mucous membranes. 
  • Bayberry root bark (Myrica cerifera):  Bayberry is one of the best herbal astringents, meaning that it tones and tightens mucous membranes. It works particularly well for treating the lining of the alimentary canal (which includes the tissues inside the mouth and the gums) and also has a mild antibacterial property.
  • Chinese Skullcap (Scutellaria baicalensis): Baikal Skullcap is high in flavonoids and has natural antimicrobial and antioxidant properties. It is used in oral preparations to help reduce inflammation of the membranes inside the mouth.
  • Licorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra):  Also called "sweet root" and the "universal herb," Licorice demonstrates natural antimicrobial properties. It also has a mild demulcent (softening) quality and a natural sweetness.
  • Prickly Ash bark (Zanthoxylum americanum): Used in Native American medicine, the bark of this tree has been called "toothache bark" and possesses astringent qualities.
  • Coptis root (Coptis chinensis):  High in berberine, Coptis has similar properties to Goldenseal. It has particular application with ulceration of mucous membranes.
  • Myrrh gum (Commiphora mol-mol):  One of the most well-known herbal antiseptics, Myrrh has antimicrobial and astringent qualities that make it ideal for oral health.
