š¦· Itās Pet Dental Health Month š¶š±
Did you know that up to 80% of dogs and cats over age 3 have periodontal disease ā even if their breath smells ājust a bit offā? It starts with plaque buildup that eventually leads to inflammation, infection, and pain beneath the gum line if not properly managed.
A healthy mouth helps your pet eat comfortably, stay pain-free, and live a happier life ā because dental disease doesnāt just affect the mouth; it can impact their overall well-being.
āØ What you can do:
Brush your petās teeth regularly with a soft brush and pet-safe toothpaste
š Schedule a dental exam during your petās annual wellness visit
Ask us about dental diets, chews, and at-home care options tailored to your pet
If youāve noticed bad breath, drooling, difficulty chewing, or red/swollen gums, give us a call ā your furry friend might benefit from a professional dental evaluation! ā¤ļø
