Carpenter Pet Dental Care: Keeping Your Pet's Teeth in Good Health

carpenter-pet-dental-care-keeping-your-pets-teeth-in-good-health

If they don't have regular dental cleanings and exams, the majority of companion animals over the age of three have some degree of periodontal disease. Unfortunately, this type of illness frequently leads to pain, swallowing issues, and other serious issues like organ damage, infections, and even premature death when left untreated.

Contact Shepherds Vineyard Animal Hospital for pet dental care near Carpenter if it's been a while since your pet's last checkup. You can be sure that, with our assistance, your pet will have a happy, healthy smile. For more information on preserving your pet's oral health, keep reading.

Brush Their Teeth Frequently

The best way to protect your pet's long-term oral health is to begin brushing their teeth at home when they are young. However, even pets who are older might get used to having their teeth brushed. We recommend brushing their teeth every day using pet-safe toothpaste and a toothbrush made for dogs/cats. We can show you how to safely brush your pet's teeth at home during their next appointment. 

Buy Dental Toys and Treats

Choose something that will help keep your dog or cat's teeth clean the next time they require a new treat or toy. They don't replace professional dental care or routine at-home brushings, but they do aid in reducing plaque and tartar development. Some of them even improve pets' breath

Schedule Pet Dental Care Appointments Near Carpenter Every Year

We recommend bringing your pet in for a complete dental checkup and cleaning once a year. We'll take x-rays, clean their teeth thoroughly, and carefully inspect the entire oral cavity. Additionally, we'll look for teeth that are seriously damaged or diseased and, if required, remove them. If your dog or cat needs pet dental treatment near Carpenter, the team at Shepherds Vineyard Animal Hospital can help. Contact us today to learn more or schedule an appointment.
