Signs Your Pet May Need a Dental

If you’ve noticed any of the following, it may be time for a dental evaluation:

• Visible tartar on teeth
• Bad breath
• Broken or loose teeth
• Pawing at the mouth or face
• Red, tender, or bleeding gums

Why Dental Health Matters

Dental disease doesn’t just affect your pet’s mouth—it can lead to serious health concerns throughout the body. Untreated dental issues may cause:

• Oral pain and discomfort
• Gum infections or tooth loss
• Fractured teeth or jaw
• Bacterial spread to organs like the heart and kidneys
• A significant decline in quality of life
