Dental disease is a widespread condition in our companion pet population. By three years of age, up to 80% of dogs and cats will have some form of periodontal disease. This statistic is not surprising considering oral home care is not seen as necessary by many pet owners. 

Periodontal disease is one of the most common afflictions seen in companion pets. Teeth and the tissue that surrounds them (gingiva, tooth socket, etc.) can easily become infected. Daily oral home care in the form of tooth brushing, oral rinses, and dental treats are helpful to ward off periodontal disease.

We all need assistance and lots of TLC following surgery, and our furry family members are no different. After dental surgery, your pet will rely on you for loving aftercare. Our veterinary dentists at Animal Dental Care and Oral Surgery in Loveland want to support you in giving your pet the best care possible. 

Your pet’s dental health is vitally important to her overall wellness. Routine cleanings and exams are the first step in ensuring optimal dental health for your furry family members. Veterinary dentists are an excellent choice for these regular check-ups. Sometimes a pet’s dental issues require more than a routine cleaning or a simple procedure. That’s where veterinary dentistry stands apart from regular veterinary care, offering highly skilled and specialized care for all of your pet’s dental needs.
