Here are some reasons why dental care is so
important for your pet:
1. A pet with healthy teeth equals a pet
with better breath!
2. Dental disease can actually lead to
problems with your pet’s organs, such as the heart.
3. Retained baby teeth can cause problems
in pets too! Did you know that full grown dogs have 42
teeth and full grown cats have 30 teeth? Before their adult teeth grow in,
though, their baby teeth have to fall out. Sometimes, not all of the baby teeth
want to come out. This can lead to problems like gum irritation and tartar
buildup.
4.
Caring for your pet’s teeth can prevent other health problems, saving you tons of money over the long
term!

5. You need regular dental care and you brush
your teeth everyday – why wouldn’t your pets? Your veterinarian and these handy videos can help you
learn to brush your dog's teeth and your cat's teeth.
6. Did you know that 4 out of 5 dogs over the
age of 3 years have some sort of periodontal disease? It can be caused by the buildup of
plaque, so it’s important to go in for regular dental checkups and
cleanings.
7. Pets that don’t get dental care can
painfully lose their teeth –
this can be terribly painful and cause serious health problems.
8. Your dog and cat are very good at hiding
pain – you might never know that your pet has a serious dental problem until
it’s very advanced. This is yet
another reason it’s important to take your pet in for regular dental checkups.
9. Teeth wear out! Your pets are tough on their
teeth.
10. Periodontal disease affects up to 80% of all adult pets. It is
2.4 times more expensive to treat dental disease than to prevent it.
