The Importance of Dental Health

Dental disease is one of the most commonly undiagnosed and untreated diseases that we encounter in animal medicine. Did you know that chronic dental disease can lead to a bloodborne infection that could affect your pet’s heart valves, liver, or kidneys? Human dentists recommend at least one dental cleaning per year, and dogs and cats are no different. We recommend a complete dental cleaning once a year to keep your pet’s mouth healthy. It really can extend and improve your pet’s quality of life. Schedule your pet’s dental care in Bluffton or Ridgeland by contacting one of our convenient locations.

Hidden Risks of Dental Disease

Left untreated, chronic dental disease can cause more than just discomfort. Bacteria from the mouth can enter the bloodstream, potentially leading to serious infections that may affect the heart valves, liver, or kidneys. These complications can shorten your pet’s life and reduce their quality of life.

What’s Involved in a Veterinary Dental Cleaning

Our professional dental cleanings are performed under safe anesthesia to allow a thorough examination and cleaning above and below the gum line. We use specialized tools to remove plaque and tartar, polish the teeth, and check for issues such as broken teeth, infections, or oral tumors.

Better Health, Better Life

A healthy mouth can extend and improve your pet’s quality of life. Preventing dental disease not only reduces pain and discomfort but also supports your pet’s overall health for years to come. Reach out to our friendly staff to book your pet’s dental care in Bluffton or Ridgeland.
