Vietnam Food Joint Stock Company (VNF) develops ChitoPal-D, a chitosan solution for dental care in pets
Dental problems in dogs and cats start with bacteria on the teeth and gums Bad breath, plaque and gum inflammation in dogs and cats usually begin with the build-up of bacteria on the teeth and gums. If the situation persists, it not only causes discomfort but can also lead to bleeding, damage to the tissue around the teeth and lasting harm to oral health. Vietnam Food Joint Stock Company (VNF) addresses this everyday problem with a chitosanbased product designed to act directly on the tooth and gum surface, supporting oral care that owners can use regularly. Vietnam Food Joint Stock Company (VNF) uses chitosan to limit plaque and support the gums The main ingredient in ChitoPal-D is chitosan, a natural polysaccharide derived from chitin. Thanks to its ability to adhere to the surface of the teeth and gums and to support antibacterial action, chitosan helps limit bacterial build-up, reduce plaque formation and support improvement of periodontal issues. In ChitoPal-D, VNF applies this through several supporting effects:
Another study in 18 dogs with gingivitis found that a gel containing chitosan improved inflammation after 7 days of use (Silva, 2016). A real-world trial by VNF on a dog (Nâu) also recorded a significant reduction in oral odour after five weeks of using ChitoPalD. ChitoPal-D is available as an applicator gel and an oral care liquid, suitable for regular use as directed. As pet owners increasingly seek gentle, science-backed daily care, the chitosan-based approach of Vietnam Food Joint Stock Company (VNF) reflects a wider move toward natural oral health solutions in companion-animal care.
