Why good dental health in cats is so important
Preventing Pain and Discomfort
Dental diseases, such as periodontal disease, can cause significant pain and discomfort for cats. This can lead to difficulty eating and overall reduced quality of life.
Maintaining Proper Nutrition
Healthy teeth and gums are essential for cats to chew their food properly. Dental problems can lead to difficulty in chewing, which can result in poor nutrition and weight loss.
Avoiding Tooth Loss
Advanced dental disease can cause teeth to loosen and fall out. This not only affects the cat's ability to eat but can also lead to further health complications.
Preventing Bad Breath (Feline Halitosis)
While bad breath can be a nuisance, it is often a sign of underlying dental problems that need to be addressed.
Poor dental health has been linked to several systemic diseases
As importantly, poor dental health in cats has been linked to several serious systemic diseases:
Periodontal Disease
The most common dental problem in cats is periodontal disease, an infection affecting the tissues that hold the teeth in place. Bacteria from the mouth can enter the bloodstream, potentially impacting other organs and leading to various systemic health issues and complications.
Heart Disease
There is a well-documented link between periodontal disease and heart disease in cats. Bacteria from the mouth can enter the bloodstream and adhere to the heart valves, leading to endocarditis. This condition is an infection of the heart valves, affecting overall health.
Kidney Disease
The bacteria from periodontal disease can also impact the kidneys. Chronic kidney disease may develop from prolonged exposure to these bacteria, as they enter the bloodstream and cause inflammation. This can lead to reduced kidney function and overall health issues in cats.
Liver Disease
The liver is another organ that can be affected by the spread of oral bacteria. This can result in liver infections and inflammation, which in turn impacts the cat’s overall health and metabolism, potentially leading to serious complications and requiring medical intervention.
Diabetes
Cats with dental disease are more likely to develop diabetes. Conversely, diabetes can worsen dental issues, creating a vicious cycle. Poor oral health can make it more challenging to manage blood sugar levels, which complicates diabetes treatment and impacts overall health.
Respiratory Infections
Infected teeth and gums can result in the inhalation of bacteria, which may lead to respiratory infections like pneumonia. This can cause severe health complications and exacerbate the cat’s condition, potentially leading to more serious respiratory issues and requiring immediate care.
By maintaining good dental hygiene, you can help prevent not only dental diseases but also the broader health issues that can arise from poor oral health.

What is Kelp?
Kelp (Ascophyllum nodosum) is a brown seaweed rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, commonly used as a dietary supplement to support overall health and well-being in both humans and animals.
Kelp is packed with vitamins (A, B, C, D, E, & K), minerals (iodine, calcium, magnesium, potassium), and amino acids, which support dental health as well as overall health and wellbeing.
Benefits for Cats
- Helps to reduce plaque and tartar
- Fresher cat breath thanks to its antibacterial properties
- Contains minerals essential for maintaining strong teeth and good oral health
Studies
Research has shown that Ascophyllum nodosum can support dental health in cats by reducing plaque and tartar build-up. This seaweed is an active ingredient in products like PlaqueOff, which has been scientifically proven to reduce plaque, calculus, and gingival bleeding in pets.
Studies have also indicated that Ascophyllum nodosum can significantly reduce dental plaque and calculus accumulation, making it a beneficial supplement for maintaining oral health in cats and dogs (Frontiers).
How it Works
Kelp supports feline dental health by reducing plaque and tartar. Kelp contains natural enzymes and antibacterial properties that help break down the biofilm responsible for plaque and tartar build-up on teeth, thereby reducing dental issues in cats.
While the antibacterial properties of kelp help to reduce the bacteria in the mouth that cause bad breath, leading to fresher cat breath. Kelp is also high in minerals such as calcium and magnesium, which are essential for maintaining strong teeth and overall oral health.
What are Natural Zeolites?
Zeolites are minerals. Natural zeolites are formed after volcanic eruption. When the lava flows into water (lakes, ocean), it crystalizes and creates unique structured minerals, zeolites. Which explains the name, but the word zeolite is derived from two Greek words that mean boiling stones.
There are around 40 natural zeolites and over 150 synthetic zeolites products available. We only use natural zeolites in our maxxidental gum and dental support for cats.
Benefits for Cats
- Detoxifying, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory agent
- Removes toxins and heavy metals from the body
- Helps to prevent plaque forming and sticking to the teeth’s
- Combats bad breath
How it Works
Natural zeolites form a unique cage-like structure and negative surface charge that naturally draws into the “cage” positively charged particles (heavy metals, like mercury, lead, arsenic). Once trapped inside, these harmful substances are safely and naturally excreted from the body.
Therefore, zeolites are beneficial to balance the body’s pH and to remove heavy metals from the body. This makes natural zeolites popular ingredient in many human supplements, i.e. to promote healing of various conditions, as well as to help with body detox.
Zeolites also remove contamination of the teeth, which helps to prevent plaque forming and sticking to teeth.
Studies
There are some human studies available about using zeolites for oral hygiene.
This small double-blind cross-over study showed that mouth rinse with silver-zeolite greatly reduced dental plaque formation. While this study showed it effectively cuts candida growth and acid production, which are two major causes of dental plaque and oral infections.
Finally, this study showed that zeolite can eliminate volatile odours and combat bad breath.
What is Pediococcus acidilactici?
Pediococcus acidilactici is a species of lactic acid bacteria commonly used as a probiotic that promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria and healthy microbiome. It is especially beneficial as probiotic for cats as it survives the acidic environment of the cat’s stomach and makes it to intestines where it is needed.
Benefits for Cats
- Inhibits harmful bacteria that helps to maintain a balanced oral microbiome
- Helps to reduce inflammation in the gums
- Can help to prevent bad breath, tooth decay and gum disease
How it Works
Pediococcus acidilactici supports cat dental health primarily through its probiotic properties that promote a healthy oral microbiome.
It helps to maintain a balanced oral microbiome by inhibiting the growth of harmful bacteria that can cause dental diseases. By outcompeting pathogenic bacteria, it reduces the formation of plaque and tartar, which are major contributors to periodontal disease.
Pediococcus acidilactici can also help to reduce inflammation in the gums, which is beneficial for preventing and managing gingivitis and periodontal disease, and reduces the risk of oral infections.
By supporting a balanced microbial environment in the mouth, Pediococcus acidilactici contributes to overall oral health, helping to prevent bad breath, tooth decay, and gum disease.
What is Cranberry?
Cranberry is a type of evergreen shrub and offers a host of antioxidants and nutrients that can help fight infections and boost overall health, including oral health.
Cranberries contain a nutrient known as Proanthocyanidins which prevents bacteria from binding together.
Benefits for Cats
- Prevents bacteria from sticking to teeth and gums
- Cuts down the amino acids that bacteria in the mouth requires to survive
- Supports the urinary tract health and can help preventing UTI recurrence
- Offers various other health benefits for cats, including better blood sugar control, improved immunity and reduced risk of heart problems
- Helps to reduce cavities, tooth decay and plaque
- Limits the risk of gum diseases
How it Works
Cranberry is a well-known for supporting the urinary tract system and prevent UTI recurrence (hence one of the key ingredients in our maxxiUtract urinary and bladder support for cats).
The same compounds that prevent bacteria from attaching to the urinary tract also prevent bacteria from sticking to the teeth and gums, as well as cutting down the amino acids that the bacteria need to survive. This can help to reduce cavities, tooth decay, plaque, and gum disease.
Studies
This study on humans shows that the polyphenols of cranberries, appear to have potential for preventing and/or treating dental caries and periodontal disease.
While this study suggests cranberries are good for oral health by preventing ‘bad bacteria’ from sticking to the teeth and gums which could help reduce tooth decay, plaque and gum disease.
This study review confirms above and suggests that cranberry components could serve as bioactive molecules for the prevention and/or treatment of oral diseases.
What is Calcium ascorbate?
Calcium ascorbate combines calcium and ascorbic acid (vitamin C). It is a form of vitamin C that is often used as a dietary supplement because it is less acidic than pure ascorbic acid, making it gentler on the stomach.
Calcium ascorbate provides both calcium and vitamin C, each of which offers distinct health benefits. Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that supports the immune system, promotes healthy skin, and aids in the absorption of iron. While calcium is essential for strong bones and teeth, muscle function, nerve signalling, and cardiovascular health.
Benefits for Cats
- Important role in the growth, repair and maintenance of teeth and gums
- Aids with collagen synthesis
- May help to reverse gingivitis in the early stages
- Strengthens the enamel
Studies
There are number of studies available that have looked at vitamin C role in oral health in humans and this study summarises and links to the different studies.
Among others it confirms that there is clear scientific evidence linking periodontal disease and vitamin C deficiency. Vitamin C is also believed to play a protective role in patients with oral cancers and various studies confirm that vitamin C can play a vital role in preventing the development of dental caries and contributes to collagen synthesis, which is an important protein for providing tooth structure, support, and maintenance.
How it works
Vitamin C and calcium are both key nutrients that promote healthier teeth and gums.
Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that plays an important role in the growth, repair, and maintenance of healthy teeth and gum. It aids with collagen synthesis which helps to develop and maintain healthy gums and may help to reverse gingivitis in the early stages.
As everyone knows, calcium is vital for good bone health. Not everyone realise how important calcium is for teeth development and how it helps to strengthen the enamel (the thin outer covering of the tooth). Calcium has also been proven to be a necessary nutrient in gum health.
What is Yucca schidigera extract?
Benefits for Cats
- Can help reduce inflammation, including in the gums
- Has antimicrobial effects that help to reduce the growth of harmful bacteria in the mouth
- Promotes healing and help protect oral tissues from oxidative stress
- Can help to reduce bad feline breath
How it Works
Yucca schidigera extract supports feline dental health primarily through its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, which contribute to overall oral hygiene.
Yucca schidigera contains saponins and polyphenols that have anti-inflammatory properties. These compounds can help reduce inflammation in the gums, which is beneficial for preventing and managing gingivitis and periodontal disease in cats.
It also has natural antimicrobial properties that help reduce the growth of harmful bacteria in the mouth. This can decrease the formation of plaque and tartar, which are major contributors to dental disease in cats.
While the antioxidants in Yucca schidigera help protect oral tissues from oxidative stress and support the healing process. This can be particularly useful for cats with existing dental issues or those recovering from dental procedures.
By reducing the production of ammonia and other odour-causing compounds, Yucca schidigera can help improve breath odour, which is often a sign of poor dental health.
What is Taurine?
The Benefits of Taurine for Cats
- Reduces oxidative stress in the gums and blood
- Supports overall heart function and can help calm the mind
- Improves oral health
Studies
This study on humans shows that taurine exerts a protective role against the oxidative stress in the management of patients with chronic periodontitis.
How it Works
Taurine has some important functions in the heart and brain, hence one of the key ingredients in our maxxicardio heart support for cats and maxxicalm calming aid for cats.
What is less known is the role taurine has for oral health, but it has been shown to reduce oxidative stress in the gums and blood which helps to promote healing and improve oral health.
What is Papain?
Papain is a proteolytic enzyme derived from the latex of the papaya fruit (Carica papaya). It is known for its ability to break down proteins into smaller peptides and amino acids.
The Benefits of Papain for Cats
- Breaks down proteins in the mouth that contribute to plaque formation
- Has anti-inflammatory effects that can help reduce inflammation
- Can help to improve digestion and nutrient absorption
How it Works
Papain can help to reduce plaque build-up and support oral health by breaking down proteins in the mouth that contribute to plaque formation. It is sometimes included in dental products for pets to help maintain oral hygiene.
