If your pet could talk, dental disease would probably be one of the first things they’d complain about. Unfortunately, dogs and cats are incredibly good at hiding oral pain, which means dental issues often go unnoticed until they’re advanced. So how do you know when it’s time for a professional dental cleaning?
Dental disease is the most common medical condition in dogs and cats, and it often causes pain long before pets show obvious signs. Plaque and tartar buildup can lead to gum disease, tooth loss, and infection. Left untreated, dental disease can impact your pet’s heart, kidneys, and liver, making routine dental care essential for their overall health.
