Pet Dental Care Cincinnati, Middletown, Newport

Despite what you might think,

dealing with your dog or cat’s foul-smelling breath isn’t a normal part of pet parenthood.

Bad breath is actually a sign of periodontal disease, which affects most companion animals by the age of three. Periodontal disease usually begins with relatively minor symptoms, like stinky breath and tooth discoloration, but it quickly evolves into a much more serious issue. Without treatment, it can cause everything from tooth loss and difficulty eating to organ damage and premature death. We provide comprehensive pet dental care in Cincinnati right here at Mariemont Veterinary Clinic, and our team would be honored to be entrusted with caring for your companion’s pearly whites.

The Importance of Dental Care for Pets

Many folks are unaware of just how crucial dental services are for pets. Even well-meaning pet owners often fail to realize that their four-legged family members can suffer from pain and other unpleasant symptoms due to insufficient dental care.

Pets with periodontal disease may experience:

Pain
Dropping food while eating
Refusal to eat
Tooth discoloration
Foul-smelling breath
Loose or missing teeth
Bleeding gums
Infections
Heart, kidney, and liver damage
Premature death

Even if you brush your dog or cat’s teeth at home, they need regular checkups and professional cleanings. During their appointment, we’ll take digital dental x-rays and then examine and clean their teeth both above and below the gum line. We’ll also search for signs of periodontal disease and address any problems we may find. All dental services are performed while the patient is under general anesthesia to ensure comfort and safety.
