Is your pet’s breath getting in the way of close snuggles and slobbery kisses?

Contrary to popular belief, stinky breath isn’t something that pet owners simply must learn to live with. In fact, it’s probably a sign that your pet is due for a visit to the dentist.

Without proper care, your companion’s mouth can harbor dangerous bacteria, which can spread through the bloodstream and cause a number of other health problems. Left untreated, dental disease can even shorten your loved one’s life.

The good news is, with support from the team at Hambright Animal Hospital, this can all be prevented.

Our professional dentistry services include both routine, preventative care as well as advanced treatment options for existing oral conditions.

Some of the common signs of dental disease in companion animals include, but are not limited to:

• Bad breath
• Excessive drooling
• Dropping food
• Sudden disinterest in chew toys
• Loss of appetite
• Swollen or painful face
• Pawing at the mouth
• Yellow, broken, loose or missing teeth
• Gums that are red, swollen or bleeding

If your furry friend is showing any of these signs, it’s time to schedule an exam. We’ll identify the problem and address it quickly, improving the prognosis for your pet. We’ll also show you how you can help keep your companion’s teeth and gums healthy and disease-free year-round.

You deserve to enjoy lots of close cuddles with your pet. The comprehensive dental services at Hambright Animal Hospital can help get you there!
