Does your pet have bad breath? It could be dental disease. Not only is it a problem for the mouth, causing loss of teeth, tarter and gingivitis, but can also affect other organs like the heart, kidneys, and liver. Studies have shown that 80% to 85% of dogs and cats over the age of two years have gingivitis or periodontal disease. Keeping your pet's mouth clean helps to keep them healthy.

Regular dental cleaning and polishing is recommended. Our dental suite includes advanced instrumentation for preventative routing cleanings as well as special procedures such as tooth extractions.

Once clean, we can help with suggestions on ways to keep it that way. We now have a vaccine and other products to keep your pet's mouth healthy.

Signs of Poor Dental Health Include:

• Persistent bad breath
• Sensitivity and pain around the mouth
• Pawing at the mouth
• Excessive salivation
• Loss of appetite
• Difficulty eating
• Red, bleeding or receding gums
• Tartar (calculus)
• Loose or missing teeth
