When left untreated, dental disease can impact your pet's heart, kidneys, and overall health - but it can be prevented!

In addition to regular at-home dental care, healthy pets should have their teeth professionally cleaned once a year. Thorough dental cleanings remove plaque and tartar, which cause periodontal disease.

Does your pet have bad breath? This could be a sign of dental disease.

Dental disease, common in pets by the age of 3, is a painful condition that is easily preventable. If left untreated, bacteria can be absorbed into their blood stream and contribute to both heart and kidney disease.

With annual dental exams, we will look for any signs of dental disease. To keep your pet’s breath smelling fresh and their overall health on track, contact us to schedule their dental exam!

Did you know 40% of dogs and cats experience some level of pain due to Osteoarthritis (OA)?

OA is arthritis that develops when protective tissue in the joints deteriorates, leading to friction between the bones. Pain from OA can decrease your pet’s willingness to play or exercise.

Take the Pain Checklist quiz to see if they could be showing signs of OA: https://bit.ly/3Z5m7u6

If you suspect your pet may have signs of OA, please contact us so we can help them feel their very best!
