Importance of Pet Dental Health

Taking Care of Your Pet's Dental Health In Columbus, OH

Because our pets provide so much love and joy to our families, we want them to stay happy and healthy for years to come. Spring is the perfect time to remind our clients that pet dental care is a year-round responsibility that requires regular action. Taking care of the dental needs of our pets can help them avoid more serious health issues as they age.

Effective Methods for Meeting Your Pet's Dental Health Needs

Our Columbus area pet parents are amazing pet owners and take the responsibility of dental health very seriously. We'd love to hear more about your preferred dental care tips in the comments section, which methods work best for you and your furry friend? We recommend the following methods be practiced on a regular basis:

• Brushing your pet’s teeth with an enzymatic toothpaste on a regular basis
• Adding an enzyme solution like “BreathLyser Plus” to your pet's water to stimulate teeth and gum health
• Using "OraVet Dental Hygiene Chews” or “Oral Hygiene Chew Sticks” or other chews that help to remove plaque and tartar build-up
• Professional teeth cleaning as recommended by our veterinary staff

Tartar and plaque build-up can increase your pet's chances of developing further health issues. Consistent oral care can help to prevent this build-up and keep your pet's mouth and gums healthy. Tooth loss and the need for extractions can be avoided with effective care that you provide on a regular basis. If you are concerned about your pet's oral care, please make an appointment and our staff can examine their teeth, mouth, and gums and offer their recommendations for further care.
