Did you know 80% of dogs and 85% of cats over the age of 3 have some sort of dental disease? Could your pet be one of them?
Cats and dogs are more prone to dental disease than us humans, as not only is their saliva more alkaline than ours, making them prone to plaque formation, they also don’t brush their teeth!
Plaque and tartar buildup on teeth can lead to gingivitis, gum disease, and tooth decay, causing pain and difficulty eating. Beyond the mouth, bacteria from untreated dental issues can enter the bloodstream, affecting the heart, liver, and kidneys over time.
Signs of Dental Problems in Pets
While pets often hide their pain, there are signs to watch for that could indicate dental trouble:
- Bad breath
- Red or swollen gums
- Difficulty eating or chewing
- Drooling
- Pawing at the mouth
- Discoloured or broken teeth
If you are concerned about your pet’s teeth or would like some advice on how to care for their teeth to help prevent dental disease, please take advantage of our FOC Dental Health Nurse Clinic. We look forward to helping your pet maintain a healthy smile!
