Biofilm Water
This spring water is collected from our well and stored in glass bottles. It contains the natural microbial diversity found in our dogs’ mouths—the slime and biofilm that accumulate in their water bowls. This is exactly what we aim to share with your dog or cat.
Over the past 30 years and seven generations, our dogs have never developed tartar, plaque, gingivitis, receding gums, or cracked teeth. I have eight dogs and two cats, and I’ve never brushed their teeth. From my studies with biological dentists, I’ve learned that the biofilm in the mouth is what leads to tartar and plaque formation. When this biofilm is out of balance, it causes dental issues such as gum recession and tooth loss.
Our water not only helps clean the mouth but also supports the balance of the gut microbiome as the microbes travel downstream into the stomach.
How to Use Our Oral Microbiome Water
- Store the water in the refrigerator in a glass jar.
- Prepare your pet’s water bowl by scrubbing it with no chemicals, sterilizing it with boiling water, and then filling it with natural spring water free of chlorine, fluoride, or other chemicals.
- Shake the bottle of biofilm restorative water well to dislodge the biofilm growing on the glass sides.
- Add one teaspoon of our dogs’ biofilm water to the clean spring water in your pet’s bowl.
- Let it sit for about six hours to allow the beneficial microbes to grow on the bowl’s surface.
- Before your pet drinks, apply ozonated olive oil or ozonated glycerin to their gums and teeth for extra oral support.
- Ensure your pet’s diet is free from harmful chemicals, dyes, preservatives, and glyphosate.
- If your pet has thicker tartar buildup, you may need to gently remove some chunks to allow the biofilm to penetrate and recolonize those areas.
Remember, supporting oral health also contributes to a balanced gut microbiome downstream, promoting overall wellness.
