Importance of Pet Dental Care:
Oral health doesn’t exactly top the list when it comes to pet care. Of course – dogs and cats don’t need to brush their teeth 3 times a day.
But just like us humans, cats and dogs’ teeth can have plaque buildup which eventually hardens into tartar. This is no less unpleasant for our furry friends.
This can cause Dental Disease, which consequently causes tooth loss. Not only very painful, but removes one of the very basic functions – to be able to eat.
It’s also important to carefully watch your cats and/or dogs. They’re very good at hiding their pain in the early stages of this disease
Most dogs and cats have some sort of oral disease by the time they’re three years old.
If you have a puppy or a kitten, make sure to start a tooth-brushing routine by the time they’re 6-9 months old.
Meanwhile, if you have a pet that doesn’t have a brushing routine, make sure to get them checked by a vet before taking any other actions. Depending on the severity, you might need your pet to be professionally cleaned.
