Did you know that more than 80 percent of dogs and cats over the age of three have some form of dental disease?
Your pet’s oral health directly affects his or her overall health, and regular dental checkups can prevent serious health issues.

Our pets are as susceptible to plaque and tartar build up as we are. Without the proper attention, this buildup can cause infections in the teeth and gums. If the infection enters the bloodstream, it can negatively affect other parts of the body (including vital organs).
Yearly dental exams and cleanings (in conjunction with home care) can significantly reduce your pet’s risk of developing any form of periodontal disease, which can promote better overall health. Regular dental cleanings are a vital part of wellness and preventive care for your pets.
Signs of Dental Disease in Pets
Pets are notorious for hiding their pain, which is why it’s important for you to pay attention to signs of dental problems. These include:
- Bad breath
- Loose teeth
- Swollen or red gums
- Difficulty eating
- Pawing at or around the mouth
- Broken teeth
If you notice any of the above, it is important to schedule an appointment for a dental check.
