Tartar is the hard, chalky deposit that forms on the teeth which can not only become unsightly but enables bacteria to multiply and infect the gums and teeth, leading to bad breath, receding gums, loose teeth and sometimes more serious problems. Recently the homeopathic remedy Fragaria has received a lot of publicity regarding its effectiveness in both reducing and preventing tartar build up on the teeth. It is made from a mother tincture of the fruit and root of Wood Strawberry. It has a treatment and a preventative role to play in dental health as results indicate that it both helps tartar removal and prevents future build up. For animals with tartar build up on the teeth it can be given on a daily basis, usually for about one month, to soften the tartar on encrusted teeth and so make it easier to remove Thereafter, giving just one pillule of Fragaria once a week or a few drops of the liquid form will help prevent the formation of further deposits and so is also ideal following de-scaling to prevent the build-up of new tartar. This will not only improve the appearance of the teeth but also cause less stress for your cat by making the weekly teeth brushing sessions less arduous and the teeth quicker and easier to clean. Nevertheless, regular brushing is the basis of good dental hygiene and if you are concerned about your cat's teeth at any time you should consult your veterinary surgeon.
