Dental Care

Keep your pet’s mouth fresh and clean

Contrary to what many pet owners believe, bad breath is not normal for animals.

While your dog or cat’s breath will likely never smell minty fresh, it shouldn’t have a foul, overly unpleasant odor, either. Bad breath is often a sign of periodontal disease, and when left untreated, it can lead to serious complications. From pain and tooth loss to systemic infections and organ damage, periodontal disease can cause a wide range of problems for your furry friend.

At Orting Animal Hospital, we offer pet dentistry in Orting to keep your pet’s mouth fresh and clean. From exams and cleanings to dental x-rays and extractions, we provide the dental services necessary to keep your dog or cat’s teeth and gums in good condition.

Why Dental Care Is Important

Dental care is just as important for companion animals as it is for people.

Unfortunately, far too many pet parents neglect this crucial component of wellness care because they are unaware of the potential consequences. Without routine dental cleanings and exams, most dogs and cats develop some degree of tooth and/or gum disease by the time they reach three years of age. And depending on its severity, it can cause pain and difficulty eating as well as contribute to heart valve infections and kidney disease.
