Routine Dental care and Your Pet's Health

Pet Dental Care and Your Pet's Health

At Hamilton Road Animal Hospital in Columbus, our veterinarians offer an array of services to keep your pet in optimal health. Pet dental care is one of the aspects of your animal's health that shouldn't be overlooked. These services can include dental cleaning, screening for periodontal disease, and tooth extractions when it is necessary. If it has been a year or more since your pet has had a teeth cleaning, now is a great time to consider our services.

Pet Dental Care Plays a Role On Overall Well-Being

Let's first look at a few reasons why teeth and gums need to be taken care of. Forgoing regular teeth cleaning with a veterinarian can result in an excessive amount of plaque and tartar buildup, which can lead to loose teeth, gum disease and the need to remove teeth. Complications under the gums can also occur, such as bleeding and infections that become quite painful. Poor oral health can even have a major impact on other systems of the body, like the heart, liver, lungs, and kidneys.

Take a Proactive Role in Your Pet's Oral Care

Just like humans, your pet will benefit from a routine visit to get their teeth cleaned and a comprehensive dental exam. You can avoid bigger and more painful problems for your cat or dog if you take them to a veterinarian for this service on an annual basis. You can also do your part at home by brushing their teeth and giving them appropriate toys to chew on. Also, take note of possible dental problems like:

  • Excessive drooling
  • Decreased appetite
  • Broken or discolored teeth
  • Bleeding gums
  • Abnormal bad breath

Testimonials

Read What Our Clients Say

    Wow! Thanks to all the staff at Anderson Vet Clinic. I feel like you all truly love what you do! My kitty, Lola and I always have such a pleasant experience when we come in. Fortunately, it’s usually just for a check-up, but I would not leave Lola in anyone else’s hands but yours. Thank you for your caring commitment!

    I have benefited tremendously from the care my pet received from Dr. Anderson.

    John Doe / San Diego, CA

    Fabio wasn’t eating the food I was giving him and I didn’t feel he was getting the nutrition he needed. Thanks to Dr. Anderson, he evaluated Fabio and his current diet to make some recommendations and now Fabio has gone from barely eating to finishing his meals and he looks healthier than ever. You clearly are an expert in your field...thanks so much!
