Keeping up with dental care is an important part of being a good pet parent.
Dental health problems can be an indicator of a deeper problem with your pet’s health. A veterinarian should examine your pet’s teeth and gums once a year to look for any early indications of dental health concerns. For their best oral health, pets should also have regular cleanings. We provide comprehensive pet dental care in Sarasota and encourage you to reach out to us if your pet is in need of an exam.
Oral Health Issues in Pets
It can be difficult to tell when our pets are experiencing periodontal disease. It may not be overtly clear that your pet is in pain since they can’t communicate that to us directly. Your pet may show signs of dental concerns in more subtle ways. Some of these signs include:
Bad breath
Discolored teeth
Abnormal chewing
Swelling in or around the mouth
Broken, loose, or missing teeth
Excess tartar
Pain in the mouth
Increased irritability
Extra teeth or baby teeth that remain
Unusual eating habits
Bleeding in the mouth
Broken teeth
Infected teeth or gums
Palate defects
Broken jaw
Periodontal disease
Abscesses
Misalignment of the teeth or bite
