Why Does My Pet Need a Dentist?
Our pets are part of our family, and we want to give them the best care we can, especially when they live so closely with us, and bad breath is not a pleasant thing for anyone to have to endure – human or animal! Bad breath is also one of the first signs that there is a problem in the mouth, and that is where you need a
pet dentist.
As we know from our own teeth, plaque can build up and cause bad breath, gum inflammation, infection and tooth decay, which can be very painful and make us feel unwell. We try to prevent it by cleaning our teeth twice daily and regularly visiting the dentist. We understand the importance of dental hygiene, and that’s why at
Vets Of Geelong we offer a full
dog dental service so your furry friend doesn’t have to suffer with troublesome teeth either.
Looking For a Dog Dentist in Geelong?
When you think about how much care we give our own teeth, and how little care our pet’s teeth get, it is no wonder problems happen, and you need a
dog dentist to help out. We offer top-quality professional
pet dental care with the same gold standards as all the services we offer here.
If you need to come for
dog teeth cleaning in Geelong, then your pooch will be in the best hands. Unlike us they will not sit still with their mouths open while we descale and polish their teeth, so we need to administer a general anaesthetic, of which we use only the highest standards of anaesthesia. If there are any extractions needed, we can do this safely while your dog is asleep, and although their mouths may be a little tender for a day or two after, the benefits of a good
dog dental service reach far beyond simply having more pleasant breath. Infections in the mouth can spread to other organs like the heart, kidneys and liver and cause disease.
Prevention Is Better Than Cure
Our
dog dentist in Geelong will advise you on ways you can improve the oral health of your dogs and cats. Our experienced team of
Geelong vets can show you how to brush their teeth with special pet toothpaste and recommend dental diets and treats to help keep plaque at bay.
