Pet Dental Care in Aloha, OR
Like humans, pets require regular dental care to maintain healthy teeth and gums. Dental disease in pets can lead to serious health issues if left untreated. Common signs of dental problems include bad breath, reddened gums, drooling, discomfort while chewing, and loose or missing teeth.
Signs Your Pet Needs Dental Care
It’s important to recognize when your pet may need dental care:
- Bad Breath: Persistent bad breath (halitosis) is often a sign of dental disease.
- Visible Tartar: Yellow or brown buildup on teeth indicates the presence of tartar.
- Red or Inflamed Gums: Healthy gums should be pink, not red or swollen.
- Difficulty Eating: Pets may avoid hard food or chew on one side of their mouth.
- Excessive Drooling: Drooling may indicate oral pain or discomfort.
If you notice any of these signs, it’s time to consider professional dental care for your pet.
