Impact of Pet Treats

All pets enjoy a tasty treat, but as good as they are, some treats can pose issues that require dental care. To help avoid dental problems and a visit to an animal clinic, consider treats, such as dental chews, biscuits, and bones approved by the Veterinary Oral Health Council (VOHC). These types of approved treats promote your pet's oral health. Pet food approved by the VOHC can also be helpful because it is formulated to help reduce tartar and plaque. You can ask our vet or visit the VOHC website to find approved products that provide effective control of tartar and plaque.

Pet Dental Cleaning 101

Since pets are prone to having dental issues, along with providing safe food and treats, we also recommend a scheduled visit with our vet near you for a dental examination at least once a year. While visiting, ask our veterinarian about the best way to start a daily tooth brushing regimen for your pet and the type of toothpaste to use that is approved for pets.

Along with a pet dental cleaning appointment, ask our vet about the type of treats that should be avoided. For example, hard treats, such as cow hooves or beef bones for dogs can cause tooth breakage, especially if your pet's teeth are already damaged.

Pets enjoy fresh meat, but it is recommended not to give your pet pigs' ears or a fresh bone with cartilage and meat. Both treats may be contaminated with bacteria that infect the gums, leading to periodontal (gum) disease.

Kitten Care and Puppy Care

When you bring your puppy or kitten to our pet clinic for an initial preventive care examination and vaccinations, our vet will also check their dental health.
