Let's talk about dental disease: Dental disease isn’t just about bad breath. It can lead to heart disease, kidney problems, and painful infections. Up to 70% of cats and 80% of dogs have some level of periodontal disease by age 2. In the photos below you can see a recent case where our Dr. Martin cleaned the teeth, but unfortunately she was not able to save many. This was due to severe periodontal disease found with dental radiographs that showed bone loss and infected pockets (abscess) at the roots of the teeth. In order to avoid problems like this, regular dental care is key!
