HuffPost's shopping desk rounds up dental treats, water additives, gels and chew toys as alternatives for pets who resist toothbrushing, citing veterinarians who warn that untreated dental bacteria can spread to organs like the heart and kidneys. The piece recommends checking for the Veterinary Oral Health Council seal before buying any product.

Multiple veterinarians are quoted endorsing supplemental dental care, though the article's ultimate function is a numbered list of purchasable items, each linked through an affiliate program that pays HuffPost a commission.

The full dispatch is available from the source below.

✒ FROM THE EDITORIAL DESK

A veterinarian telling you plaque can travel to your pet's kidneys is true and worth knowing. A veterinarian telling you that right above a shopping cart button is a different animal, and this piece never quite untangles the two. If the cat's teeth matter that much, a real vet visit beats a nine item list with a referral fee attached to every entry.
