The Importance of Pet Dental Health

The Importance of Pet Dental Health

Dental disease is one of the most common health issues in pets, yet it often goes unnoticed until advanced. By age three, most dogs and cats (up to 90%) already have some level of gum disease. Regular dental exams and cleanings are the best way to prevent this painful condition.

  • Bad breath or foul odor

  • Inflamed gums that may bleed

  • Buildup of yellow or brown tartar

  • Trouble chewing or dropping food

  • Pawing at the mouth or rubbing the face

  • Missing, broken, or loose teeth

  • Excessive saliva

  • Swelling of the mouth, jaw, or face

If your pet shows any of these signs, schedule a dental exam right away.

How Frequently Should Pets Have Dental Care?

Every pet is different, but routine care is key to preventing dental disease. Factors such as breed, age, and existing oral health can affect how often cleanings are needed.

General guidelines include:

  • Annual cleaning for most healthy adult dogs and cats

  • Twice-yearly dental exams for seniors or pets prone to dental problems

  • At-home support with daily brushing, rinses, or approved dental treats to maintain results

Our veterinarians will help you decide on the best schedule for your pet.
