Teddy and Pelle will visit the Vet’s today for a check and also some work on their teeth. It’s important that they have this done in order to keep them safe and well with their general health.
It’s quite strange the reaction from them when we are coming near to the practise, they are barking and some what a little stressed until they come into the reception where they always receive a warm welcome from the staff working there.
80% of Dogs have a dental disease by the age of 3. It’s usually the most common clinical disease seen in dog’s. It’s not only common but can turn into a SERIOUS health problem later in life.
By cleaning your Dog’s teeth it will make chewing easier but also it will stop bad breath, tooth loss and most important it will stop bacteria from growing under the gums which can travel to the heart, kidney’s and liver.
Professional dental cleaning is required to remove plaque and tartar from your Dog’s teeth and to assess the health of your Dog’s mouth.
Dental disease begins when bacteria turns into plaque that sticks to the surface of the teeth. Minerals in Saliva harden plaque into tartar which spreads under the gum line. Bacteria under the gum line secretes toxins which contribute to tissue damage.
