Understanding Pet Dental Disease

Like humans, pets can develop plaque on their teeth. Also, like humans, if your pet’s teeth are not regularly brushed, the plaque can begin to build up and cause problems in your pet’s mouth. This is called periodontal disease. It is the most common disease among cats and dogs.

Periodontal disease can be identified by the following symptoms:

  • Bad or smelly breath
  • Blood in your pet’s saliva or water dish
  • Difficulty eating or loss of appetite
  • Excessive drooling
  • Loose or missing teeth

If you notice any combination of these symptoms, bring your pet in to see our Boothwyn veterinary team as soon as possible! We’ll be able to help fix your pet’s smile.

In the early stages of periodontal disease, brushing your pet’s teeth or giving them especially toys or treats can help dislodge plaque from their teeth. However, as the disease progresses, the plaque can move below the gumline and begin to cause infections or pain. The only way to remove plaque at this stage is through a professional dental cleaning under anesthesia.

Importance of Veterinary Dental Care

Dental care is crucial for your pet's overall health and well-being. Regular dental check-ups and cleanings can prevent periodontal disease, which can lead to pain, tooth loss, and systemic infections. Maintaining good oral hygiene also ensures fresh breath and contributes to your pet's comfort and longevity.
