Smartypups Peptide Grain Free Adult Dog Dental Care

Taking care of your dog’s dental health is crucial as it affects their overall well-being, comfort, and happiness. One of the main issues to watch out for is periodontal disease, a common health problem in dogs.

WHAT ARE PEPTIDES?

To understand peptides, it’s important to first grasp proteins. Proteins are large molecules made of smaller units called amino acids. Similar to a long beaded necklace that’s been scrunched up into a tangled ball. The Gastro-Intestinal (GI) tract breaks these protein strings into shorter chains called peptides, making them easier to digest. Shorter peptide chains are not only more digestible but also less likely to trigger allergic reactions in animals.

THE POWER OF THE PEPTIDES FOR DENTAL CARE

• Increases the digestibility and bioavailability of the protein
• Improves the palatability of the recipe
• Ensures an ideal supply of amino acid building blocks required for the renewal, maintenance, and repair of gum cells
• Ensures an ideal supply of amino acid building blocks required for the synthesis of structural proteins such as collagen
• Ensures an ideal supply of amino acid building blocks required for the production of antimicrobial peptides that support healthy gums by reinforcing the oral barrier and reducing inflammation

In addition to the inclusion of hydrolysed protein, the Dental Care diet contains a range of functional ingredients. Including a unique dental blend called Plaque Defence. This is a multi-functional combination of five ingredients designed to promote optimal oral health.
It includes sodium hexametaphosphate, seaweed, cranberry, green tea extract, and peppermint. These ingredients work synergistically to reduce plaque, inhibit bacterial growth, prevent tartar formation, and provide relief from inflammation.
Additionally, Dental Care is formulated with postbiotics to support fresher breath and a healthy oral microbiome. Several studies suggest that each of these ingredients also contributes to improved oral health in dogs, supporting their inclusion in pet-specific oral care products.
