FROM TEETH TO TAIL
Pet Dental Care in Mill Creek
A healthy mouth is the foundation of a healthy body. We provide comprehensive oral health assessments and treatments to protect your pet's smile and overall wellbeing.
Protecting Vital Organs Through Oral Health
Did you know that by age three, over 80% of dogs and 70% of cats show signs of active dental disease? It is the most common clinical condition occurring in adult pets.
Dental health isn't just about sparkling teeth. Bacteria from a mouth infection can enter the bloodstream and spread to vital organs like the heart, liver, and kidneys, causing serious long-term health issues.
Regular dental care adds years of comfort and vitality to your pet's life. Start with a Wellness Exam. We'll evaluate your pet's mouth during their routine visit and grade their dental health.
Signs Your Pet Needs a Checkup
Noticeably bad breath (halitosis)
Pawing or rubbing at the face or mouth
Difficulty chewing, dropping food, or chewing on one side
Red, swollen, or bleeding gums
Loose, discolored, or missing teeth
Reduced appetite or unexplained weight loss
Swelling under the eyes or around the jaw
Cats in particular are masters at hiding pain. Even if they are eating normally, severe dental disease may still be present.
