Proper dental care is essential to the health of your pet

Proper dental care is essential to the health of pets. Pets develop gum disease and dental problems just like people. This is why our hospital provides for your pet’s dental needs. Our doctors thoroughly examine the teeth and oral cavity for any signs of gum disease and dental problems. Whether it may be a diet to slow tartar formation, at-home brushings or yearly dental cleanings, we can help you maintain your pet’s oral health.

Veterinary Dental Care

Maintaining good oral health can add years to your pet’s life and can make their later years more comfortable and happy. The following are signs and symptoms of poor oral health:

• Persistent Bad Breath
• Sensitivity Around the Mouth
• Pawing at the Mouth
• Loss of Appetite
• Bleeding, Inflamed, or Receding Gums
• Tartar (Creamy Brown, Hard Material)
• Loose or Missing Teeth
• Difficulty Eating or Chewing Food

Bacteria associated with periodontal disease may damage the kidneys, liver, and heart.

Daily brushing and professional veterinary dental care at regular intervals help promotes oral health and longevity.

During an annual visit, the doctor will examine your pet’s mouth for signs of gum disease, tartar build-up, and decay. If you notice any of the warning signs listed above, do not wait for the next annual visit. Call our office and set up an appointment today.

We perform dental cleaning every 6 months to 1 year in which consist of ultrasonic scaling, polishing and extractions. We perform dental x- rays to insure all roots are removed during extractions.
