📣 🦷❓Toothy Trivia 📣 🦷❓: By what age, on average, do we start to see signs of dental disease in our pets?

Well in this pets case, we are seeing evidence at 1.5 years old!!!
Did you know that 80% of dogs and 70% of cats show signs of dental disease by age 3? The key to a lifetime of healthy teeth and fresh breath starts young!

**📚What is Periodontal Disease?**
It’s a common yet often unnoticed condition where invisible plaque accumulates beneath the gum line, leading to:
- **GINGIVITIS**: Inflammation of the gums
- **PERIODONTITIS**: Damage to the tissues supporting the teeth
- **TOOTH LOSS**: Resulting in pain and discomfort

**🔎 Why Early Detection Matters:**
Periodontal disease progresses silently, often without visible signs until advanced stages. Regular dental check-ups are crucial to catch and address issues early.

**Preventive Measures:**
- **REGULAR BRUSHING **: Keep those pearly whites clean
- ** DENTAL CHEWS**: Help reduce plaque buildup. Look for those products with the VOHC Seal
- **PROFESSIONAL CLEANINGS**: Schedule routine dental exams with us

This month, take the time to brush up 🪥on your pet’s oral health! 💙 🐶🐱 🦷
