Allentown Pet Dentistry & Advanced Veterinary Dental Services

Prioritizing Your Pet’s Oral Health

Did you know that nearly 70% of all pets over the age of three have some form of dental disease? Excessive plaque build-up can lead to internal problems including organ malfunctions and even death. Since our pets are unable to tell us that they are experiencing pain or discomfort, dental problems can often be overlooked or mistaken for other things. If your pet has lost interest in their kibble, chew toy, or other once-cherished item, he or she may have underlying dental issues.

Our highly trained doctors and nurses at Allentown Animal Clinic offer a wide array of pet dental services, including:

• Dental x-rays
• Extractions
• Flap surgeries
• Ultrasonic cleaning

Why is pet dental care important for my pet's overall health?

Proper dental care is crucial for your pet's overall health and well-being. Dental disease can lead to serious health issues, including infection, tooth loss, and even organ damage. By prioritizing your pet's dental health, you can help prevent these problems and ensure a happier, healthier life for your furry companion.

How can I maintain my pet's dental health at home between veterinary visits?

In addition to regular dental cleanings, there are several ways you can help maintain your pet's dental health at home. Brushing your pet's teeth regularly with pet-safe toothpaste, providing dental chews or toys, and feeding a balanced diet can all contribute to good oral hygiene. It's also essential to schedule regular dental check-ups with your veterinarian to catch any potential issues early on.
