Did you know that by the age of three years, three out of four dogs already show signs of gingivitis and periodontal disease? Regular dental cleanings do more than just prevent bad pet breath. They are also an important part of regular veterinary care. These cleanings help remove the build-up of plaque and tartar from the gum line. Left unchecked, plaque build-up can cause periodontal disease and puts pets at risk for bacterial infections. If this infection enters the bloodstream, it can cause serious damage to a pet's internal organs, including the kidney, heart and liver.
