Step-by-Step Guide to Using Oral Cleansing Gel

Here's a detailed guide on how to properly use oral cleansing gel:

1. Prepare the Gel:
   • If you notice that the gel has settled (globule drops at the bottom), shake the bottle until dissolved. This ensures an even distribution of the active ingredients.
2. Dispense the Gel:
   • Rub or squeeze a small amount of the gel onto your fingertip or a suitable applicator. The reference recommends a pea-sized droplet for cats. Adjust the amount depending on the size of your pet.
3. Apply the Gel:
   • Apply the gel directly to your pet's gums, specifically on each side above your pet's back upper teeth and gums.
4. Allow Natural Distribution:
   • The gel is designed to have a natural cleansing action, which means it will distribute itself to remote areas of the mouth.
5. Use Daily:
   • For the best results, use the oral cleansing gel daily. Consistent application will help to keep your pet's teeth and gums clean and healthy.

Tips for Effective Application

• Consistency is Key: Daily application will achieve best results.
• Gentle Approach: Be gentle when applying the gel, especially if your pet is sensitive.
• Positive Reinforcement: Reward your pet after applying the gel to create a positive association with the process.
