Dental Health

Happy Tuesday! Today for our #tuesdaytips we will discuss dental health.

Dental disease affects almost 85% of cats and dogs over one year of age. It's caused by the interaction of oral bacteria (plaque) and the animal's response to these bacteria and their toxins. Dental disease is the most common health concern for dogs. Your pet may show few obvious signs, and still suffer from one of the four stages of dental disease.

We offer many different ways to help keep your pet's teeth healthy- dental diets which help clean the tooth surface and fight bacteria-laden plaque; CET chews which carry an enzyme to actually aid in breaking down the plaque; water additives which can also be squirted straight into the mouth, finger brushes, dental cleanings under anesthesia as well as full dental surgery to do extractions.

We also offer an Ultimate Dental Kit - each kit includes a trial size bag of food, bottle of water additive + mister, and for the dogs a finger toothbrush. (See photo) Over 15% in savings!! We are currently out of the cat kits, but hope to have more in soon!

​If you are concerned about your pet's dental health, speak to our veterinarians at your next wellness exam or call us to schedule a consultation so together we can find a plan that works best for you and your pet.
