Professional Dental Cleaning: Keep Your Dog's Teeth Healthy
Just like humans, dogs need regular dental care to maintain healthy teeth and gums. Without proper cleaning, plaque and tartar build-up can lead to bad breath, gum disease, tooth loss, and even serious health problems affecting the heart, liver, and kidneys.

Why Are Dental Cleanings Important for Your Dog?
Many pet owners don't realize that over 80% of dogs show signs of dental disease by the age of three. Dental problems can be painful and costly if left untreated.
A professional cleaning helps:
- Remove plaque and tartar buildup
- Prevent gum disease (periodontal disease)
- Stop bad breath (halitosis)
- Reduce the risk of tooth loss
- Prevent infections that can spread to vital organs
Regular dental care keeps your dog healthy, happy, and pain-free.
Signs Your Dog Needs a Dental Cleaning
If you notice any of these symptoms, schedule a dental exam as soon as possible:
- Bad breath (persistent odor)
- Yellow or brown tartar on teeth
- Red, swollen, or bleeding gums
- Difficulty chewing or loss of appetite
- Loose or missing teeth
How Often Should Dogs Get a Dental Cleaning?
Most dogs benefit from annual dental cleanings, but some breeds—especially small dogs and those prone to dental disease—may need more frequent care. Regular brushing at home and dental chews can also help maintain oral health between cleanings.
