Ensuring Your Pet's Oral Health and Comfort
Dentistry
Your pet’s teeth need to be treated with the same care as your own. By age 3 and up, a majority of dogs and cats develop some form of dental disease, whether gingivitis or periodontal disease, because poor oral hygiene is extremely common among pets. Thankfully, a majority of dental problems are treatable and most are preventable.
At Zia Vet Clinic, we offer a wide variety of dental procedures for dogs, cats, rabbits and other small mammals. These procedures range from important preventative health-care, routine descaling, tooth extractions and periodontal surgery to advanced maxilofacial trauma management. Our clinic has its own Digital X-ray Machine to support our dental services, providing expert advice and a range of dental products. (Please feel free to reach out to our team for more information).


SIGNS YOUR PET MAY REQUIRE PROFESSIONAL DENTAL WORK
Often, dogs and cats don’t show that they’re struggling with oral pain. However, there are a few signs you can look out for to determine whether a visit to the vet is necessary:
- Noticeably bad breath
- Red, swollen gums
- Yellow/brown buildup on the teeth along the edge of the gum line
- Dropping food and/or eating less than usual
- Eating awkwardly, such as smacking lips and/or sticking tongue out
- Drooling
- Blood-tinged saliva
- Loose or broken teeth
HOW TO CLEAN YOUR PET’S TEETH AT HOME
The most effective way to slow plaque and tartar buildup is to brush your pet’s teeth daily (if possible). All you need is a pet tooth brush, pet-friendly toothpaste, and some patience. If you start when your pet is still a puppy or kitten, they will grow accustomed to the process more quickly.
First, get them used to having their teeth and gums touched, and then introduce the toothbrush. Let your pet taste the toothpaste first as well. To brush, just gently move the toothbrush in a circular motion along their gum line, without pressing too hard. Be sure to reward your pet for their good behavior, and take your time in introducing this activity into your pet’s regular oral hygiene. You can always call us if you need help!
