Dental Care

Healthy teeth play a major role in the well-being of your animal. Bad breath may be a sign of dental disease. Gingivitis, tartar, and periodontal disease can release bacteria into the bloodstream stressing internal organs, leading to disease. Starting with your pet’s first exam our doctors will check your pet’s mouth for any signs of discomfort or disease. Your doctor will set up an individualized plan for your pet’s healthy teeth and mouth.
