When to Schedule a Dental Appointment for Your Pet

Many pet owners don’t even think to check on their furry friend’s teeth, but good oral hygiene can make all the difference in your pet’s overall health and well-being.

We recommend scheduling an appointment at least once a year, or more frequently if you notice problems such as:

• Bad breath
• Broken, loose, or missing teeth
• Severely discolored teeth
• Strange chewing or drooling habits
• A refusal to eat or a lack of appetite
• Bleeding from gums
• Swelling in or around the mouth

Do not hesitate to reach out to our veterinarians if you have any questions about your pet’s oral health or if you have any pressing concerns. We would be happy to help and to conduct a thorough dental checkup.
