Your pets are a part of the family, and they deserve the best care possible. That’s why we offer a range of dental services to help keep your pet’s teeth and gums healthy and strong.
Do Pets Really Need Dental Care?
Your pet’s oral health is just as important as their general health. Just as you would take your dog or cat to the vet for regular check-ups and vaccines, you should also be scheduling regular visits for dental check-ups and preventative treatment.
Routine dental care will not only help prevent common problems like tooth decay, excessive drooling, and gum disease, but it will also help with the early detection of more serious issues like oral cancers, tumors, and abscesses. On top of that, keeping your pet’s teeth and gums healthy will reduce bad breath and help them maintain a healthy diet and weight.
If you ignore your pet’s dental needs, you run the risk of more serious problems down the road. Untreated dental problems can become a major source of pain and discomfort for your pet. Unsurprisingly, the longer these issues go unaddressed, the greater the impact they will have on your pet’s behavior and general health.
Remember, even small problems can snowball into potentially life-threatening conditions if you don't take steps to address them early on. If you notice your pet has bad breath, red or swollen gums, or altered eating or drinking habits, it's time for a visit to the doctor.
