Dentistry
Walnut Grove Animal Hospital takes pride in providing comprehensive dental services to our esteemed clients. Dental disease is prevalent among pets and if left unmanaged, can result in secondary health complications. Therefore, early detection and preventive measures are imperative for maintaining optimal oral health.
Common Dental Problems in Pets
Services Offered
Our dental services include:
Preventative Care
It is generally more advantageous to adopt a proactive approach in contrast to a reactive one. Regularly brushing your pet's teeth can effectively reduce the accumulation of harmful bacteria and plaque within its oral cavity. Human toothpaste should be avoided, as this can contain xylitol (also known as birch sugar), which is toxic to house pets.
Signs Your Pet Needs Dental Care
Should your pet exhibit signs of distress, such as excessive drooling, vocalizations indicative of discomfort, or a reluctance to consume food, it is advisable to promptly arrange for an examination with your veterinarian.
