Dental Care Your Pets

Over time, tartar buildup (plaque) on your pet’s teeth leads to a bacterial infection of the gums. The result is bad breath, reddened gums, and can lead to tooth decay and tooth loss if left untreated.  Aside from bad breath and red gums, drooling, discomfort while chewing, and loose or missing teeth may indicate dental problems. Even if you’re using treats and chews to help control tartar, these are frequently not enough to keep dental disease in check. Ask us about the best ways to control plaque and help protect your pet from dental disease.

Dental hygiene is an important part of your pet’s health, because dental disease can be associated with other serious health problems such as heart disease and kidney disease. But how do you know if your pet has a healthy mouth? Let us examine your pet’s teeth and gums to help determine if there are any dental issues you should know about. After a brief visual examination, we may recommend a dental cleaning, or options for at-home dental care.
