| You should periodically bexamine your ferrets teeth and make sure food is not collecting to cause decay. A toothpick can be used to remove deposits. And a cotton swab with ferret toothpaste used to brush if necessary. Never use toothpaste made for humans. Those contain atrificial sweeteners and often floride. Both can be toxic to a ferret, causing liver or kidney damage. Never allow your ferret to have anything with artificial sweetener, this includes gum, candies and many other things. |

| Thank you for sharing this information. Good dental health is just as important for our ferrets as it is for us. I would love to get an article up here at the site about dental care to share useful tips and techniques. If anyone would like to submit an article to The Hidey Hole Website, please visit the Write An Article page. |
