Good Oral Hygiene Starts with Pet Dental Care at our Animal Hospital in Livonia
Our animal hospital in Livonia offers complete pet dental care services for all breeds and sizes of dogs and cats. By getting your pet’s teeth and gums examined at regular intervals, you are helping to prevent periodontal disease, dangerous oral infections and the need for multiple tooth extractions.
Prevent Oral Infections with Pet Teeth Cleanings from our Livonia Veterinarian
Regular oral examinations and teeth cleanings with our Livonia veterinarian can help prevent dangerous oral infections, which can develop if the plaque and tartar are not regularly removed from your pet's teeth. Gingivitis is the early stage of gum disease. It causes red, swollen and bleeding gums. If the gingivitis is left to progress, it turns into periodontal disease, which can lead to dangerous oral infections, like abscesses. If the infections are not treated, they can spread into your pet’s bloodstream and become life-threatening.
Our Livonia veterinarian recommends scheduling a pet teeth cleaning for your dog or cat at least once a year. If you have an older pet, you may need to schedule your pet’s dental cleanings every six months. This is because senior pets can develop oral infections and loose teeth much faster than their younger counterparts.
