Does Pet Dental Really Matter?

Don't be fooled into thinking that an animal's dental health is not a big deal. Dental health can have a dramatic effect on every aspect of your pet's health and longevity. Dental issues that are left untreated will often result in serious infections. When these infections reach the bloodstream, they can cause serious and sometimes fatal health problems.

It is also important for your pets' quality of life, that they have healthy, strong teeth. When teeth are damaged or diseased, they can cause pain for your pets.

The Serious Consequences of Neglected Dental Health

  • Untreated dental issues can lead to serious infections
  • Infections can reach the bloodstream and cause fatal health problems
  • Damaged or diseased teeth cause pain and discomfort
  • Poor dental health affects your pet's overall quality of life

What Type of Dental Care Is Available?

As part of the comprehensive pet care we provide at our animal center, pet dental services can include:

Comprehensive Dental Exam

A thorough dental exam as part of your animal's annual pet exam. During this exam, our vet will be able to determine if your pets have any dental issues that need further examination.

Professional Dental Cleaning

Professional cleaning to remove plaque and tartar buildup that can lead to serious dental problems.

Advanced Dental Treatments

If your pets do need further dental care, we can help with that, too. Our trained veterinary staff and equipment are ready to assist with all of your pet's dental needs.

What Dental Care Should I Do at Home?

You can help keep your pet's teeth healthy at home, too:

Daily Teeth Cleaning

Be sure to clean your pet's teeth once a day or at least several times a week. Talk with our vet about which types of products you should use to clean your pets' teeth.

Avoid Damaging Chew Items

You will also want to make sure your pet does not chew on things that would damage their teeth.
