Signs of Dental Disease in Pets

Pets often hide their discomfort, so it can be hard to detect dental problems. Many pets with poor oral health continue to eat normally, but there are several signs to watch for that may indicate your pet needs a dental cleaning:

  • Red, swollen gums
  • Loose or broken teeth
  • Bad breath
  • Discolored teeth (yellow or brown)
  • Excessive drooling
  • Dropping food while eating
  • Swelling around the face
  • Pawing at the face or mouth

At-Home Teeth Cleaning for Cats and Dogs

For optimal oral health, we recommend brushing your pet’s teeth twice daily. Starting when they are young helps them get used to the routine. Other at-home options include dental wipes, chews, treats, or a dental-specific diet. We’re happy to help you develop the best dental care plan for your pet.
