The Importance of Dental Care
Good oral health is an important part of your pet's overall health. Dental disease affects approximately 85% of dogs and cats over 1 year of age. Every day you make choices regarding your pet`s nutrition, level of exercise and overall well-being. Dental health care is a key component in your pet`s health. Improved oral health care can reduce the discomfort and medical problems that accompany periodontal disease:
- Bad Breath
- Inflamed/swollen gums
- Drooling, difficulty chewing
- Loss of teeth
- Bacterial infections that can spread to vital organs
How to prevent periodontal disease:
- Daily brushing
- Schedule a dental (and overall) health checkup
- If needed a prophylaxis (dental cleaning) to remove tartar and plaque buildup and any unhealthy teeth present in the mouth.
