Looking for These Warning Signs

​

* Bad breath - one of the first signs of dental disease

* A yellowish-brown crust of plaque on the teeth near the gum line.

* Red and swollen gums

* Pain or bleeding when your pet eats or when the mouth or gums are touched.

* Decreased appetite or difficulty eating.

​

If your pet displays any of these signs, serious periodontal disease may be present. 

​

Periodontal (Gum) disease is one of the most commom thealth concerns of pets today. The problem begins when plaque and tartart build up on your pet's teeth. 

​

Plaque contains the bacteria that can infect gum tissue and the roots of teeth resulting in disease and tooth loss. In addition to the negative impact on the oral health, bacteria can enter the blood stream through large blood vessels located near the gums and teeth. At this stage the organs with the highest blood flow are most susceptible to infections: lungs, heart, kidneys, liver and even the brain. Damage to these organs caused by infection can shorten the lives of our pets.
