Your pet's dental health is an important part of his overall health. According to the American Veterinary Dental Society, 80% of dogs and 70% of cats have oral disease by the age of 3. It is the most frequently diagnosed health problem in pets.
Common signs of oral disease include:
- Tartar buildup
- Red and swollen gums
- Bad breath
- Changes in eating or chewing habits
- Pawing at the face
- Generalized depression.
Dental disease can affect other organs in the body: bacteria in the mouth can get into the bloodstream and cause serious kidney infections, liver disease, lung disease, and heart valve disease. Oral disease can also indicate that another disease process is occurring elsewhere in the pet’s body. A thorough physical exam combined with appropriate laboratory work can determine if this is the case.
The American Animal Hospital Association recommends that all adult dogs and cats receive regular oral examinations and dental cleanings. A veterinarian should evaluate your pet’s dental health at least once a year and will periodically recommend a full dental cleaning performed under general anesthesia.
Dental cleanings are necessary because bacteria and food debris accumulation around a pet’s teeth leads to deterioration of the soft tissue and bone surrounding the teeth. This decay results in irreversible periodontal disease and even tooth loss.
We can recommend and demonstrate preventative measures to implement at home to help avoid costly and extensive procedures. Ask about teeth-brushing services and dental chews at your next visit!
