Dentistry

Animals also need good and beautiful (healthy) teeth. If you observe any of the following signs in your pet, call or come to the clinic our Veterinarian will determine if your pet needs dental care.

• Staining of the teeth and tartar starts to build up on teeth
• Bad breath from your pet
• Infected gums
• Loose teeth
• Broken teeth
• Sore mouth

As with people, the extent of dental disease cannot be fully determined without an in-depth examination and possibly dental x-rays.

Tartar and Periodontal disease Grades

GRADE 1: Tartar is on the crown of the tooth, but not against the gums.
GRADE 2: Tartar is on the crowns and is touching the gums.
GRADE 3: Tartar is against the gums and gums are inflamed.
GRADE 4: Tartar is thick against the gums, loose teeth, possibly pus present.
