According to the American Veterinary Dental Society, 70% of adult cats and 80% of adult dogs show symptoms of oral disease.
If you’ve noticed yellowing of your pet’s teeth, bad breath, bleeding, or broken teeth, something just isn’t right. Your pet’s oral health is directly connected to their overall health. If you are noticing issues, it could be as simple as tartar buildup. However, it could also be as serious as periodontal disease, a medical condition that can spread infection throughout your pet’s entire body.
Dental Care with Dental Radiographs
Dogs and cats cannot tell us when their teeth are diseased. X-rays are the only way for us to know your dog or cat has a serious dental problem that can be treated. Cleaning a pet’s teeth without X-rays often results in missed opportunities to improve the quality of life and health of your animal. At Green Valley Veterinary Care we will do what is best for your pet and their oral health care.
We will teach you at-home care for your pet’s teeth, as well as providing all dental services at Green Valley Veterinary Care to keep your pet’s teeth clean and healthy.
