Dental health is a huge part of your animals overall wellbeing.
Like us, plaque turns into tartar within 24 hours, so daily brushing, with a pet specific toothpaste*, is the best way to prevent the development of plaque into tartar and eventually calculus.
Once calculus is formed the only way to remove it is with a surgical cleaning. When dental disease is allowed to progress, eventually extractions will be needed to prevent the spread of infection and avoid irreparable bone loss.
A thorough oral examination is part of every doctor’s visit with us. If you have concerns for your pets dental health, we routinely perform dental procedures including cleanings and extractions.

*human grade toothpaste contains too much fluoride and often contains xylitol, both of which are toxic to dogs.
