It's Crucial to Monitor Your Pet's Dental Health
Caring for your pet’s teeth is an important part of their healthcare that many pet owners overlook. Over time, your pet’s teeth will build up tartar and plaque, which may lead to bad breath, periodontal disease, and tooth decay. It is important when deciding on animal dental care, to have your pet’s teeth checked by a veterinarian yearly. Dental x-rays may also be recommended to look for broken or retained teeth, and bone lesions.
Proper Dental Care for Your Pet
While professional animal dental care often requires anesthesia, which may not be suitable for every pet, neglecting your pet's dental hygiene can lead to serious health issues. These include bacterial infections that can affect the heart, kidneys and liver, as well as changes in behavior, loss of appetite, and depression. At Alpine Veterinary Clinic, we are commited to helping you determine the most appropriate type of dental care for your pet.
