Did you know 80 percent of dogs and 70 percent of cats over three years of age suffer from some form of dental disease? This makes dental disease the most common pet health issue among our pet population.
Dental care is vital to the overall health of any animal, as dental disease can further lead to health issues with the heart, liver, kidneys, and can affect the entire body through the bloodstream.
There are a lot of different ways to improve your pet’s dental hygiene. Some ways include home brushing, dental chews, and water additives. However, the most effective way to protect your pet from dental disease is through veterinary professional cleanings. Here at Lakeshore Road Animal Hospital, we perform these thorough cleanings under general anesthesia to ensure full patient comfort during this extensive process.
