Spotting Dental Disease in Dogs and Cats

Spotting Dental Disease in Dogs and Cats

Dental disease often develops quietly. In fact, most pets over the age of three show some level of periodontal disease.

Watch for common signs such as:

  • Persistent bad breath

  • Tartar buildup on teeth

  • Red, inflamed, or bleeding gums

  • Increased drooling

  • Pawing at the mouth or face

  • Changes in eating or chewing habits

  • Avoiding hard food or chew toys

Left untreated, dental disease can lead to more serious health issues affecting the heart, liver, and kidneys.
