No, that is not recommended. Human toothpaste contains ingredients that could be harmful or toxic to dogs. But there are some good toothpastes made specifically for dogs; these are formulated for a dog's tastes, which will make brushing his/her teeth much easier for you, and for the dog. If the dog likes the flavor of the toothpaste, then you won't have to fight them to brush their teeth.

No, you should never use human toothpaste on a cat, as the fluoride alone is toxic and can make a cat ill if ingested. If you wish to brush your cat's teeth, use a pet toothpaste that has no fluoride in and is safe to ingest (I cat cannot spit out toothpaste like humans do).


Can you use baby toothpaste on dogs?

You should not use baby toothpaste on a dog. Many of them contain one or more chemicals that could be toxic to dogs. There are special toothpastes available at most pet stores and veterinarians specifically formulated for dogs. I use one called BreathaLyser using a soft toothbrush. If your pet does not react well to a toothbrush, try using your finger instead.
