Good dental care also requires routine examinations by a veterinarian. Veterinarians can catch dental disease early, help you figure out if there is more you can do, and even recommend a professional dental cleaning if the disease is really bad. Professional dental cleanings under anesthesia are the very best way to stop dental disease. We clean your pet’s teeth like your dentist does cleans yours. We can even get underneath the gums, where owners are not able to get to.
After a professional cleaning, it is important to keep brushing your pet’s teeth and provide dental chews to keep dental disease from coming back.
Signs of dental disease include discolored teeth, bad breath, and even difficulty eating. Some pets experience blood in their mouths because the disease has progressed so far. If you notice any of these, you need to schedule an examination as soon as possible.
