“Does my pet REALLY need a dental?” 🐶🐱
We hear this question a lot—and we totally understand why! If your pet is eating normally, chewing their toys, and doesn’t seem bothered, it can be hard to imagine that they need a dental cleaning.
But here’s the thing: pets are really good at hiding dental pain.
🦷 Dental disease often starts below the gumline, where you can't see it just by looking at your pet's teeth.
🦷 Plaque and tartar can lead to gingivitis, infection, bone loss, and painful teeth.
🦷 A professional dental cleaning allows us to clean above AND below the gumline, where brushing at home can't reach.
🦷 During a dental procedure, we evaluate each tooth and take dental X-rays to find problems that aren't visible from the outside.
And here's the surprising part: your pet may feel so much better after a painful tooth is treated that you notice changes in their appetite, energy, or personality! ❤️
