If you are looking for a quality veterinary clinic for your pet's dental care, look no further than West Toledo Animal Hospital. Our team of veterinarians and staff are here to make sure your pets' teeth stay healthy and to treat any dental conditions they may have.
Your pet's oral health is just as important as their overall health to us. Many oral and non-oral health issues can be detected and treated early at oral health exams. During your pet's oral exam, our veterinarian will check the jaw, gums, and teeth to make sure they look healthy. They may also suggest getting your pet's teeth cleaned.
Here are several oral issues to look out for that may cause health issues for your cat or dog:
You also want to watch for any changes in your pet's behavior, since this can also be a sign that they are not feeling well or in pain.
There are some causes of dental issues to look out for as well. These include:
Bring your pet in to us if they have any of the above conditions. Periodontal disease is the most common dental health issue in cats and dogs. Most pets have signs of periodontal disease by the time they are three years old. A detailed dental cleaning and X-rays can help determine the severity of the disease. Get your pet in early for a dental checkup can also help prevent the disease from worsening.
Pet dental care requires anesthesia to keep your animal and the staff safe. Since your animal does not understand what is being done, they may try to get away or bite. To keep everyone safe and make sure our dental care is performed smoothly, anesthesia will be used. Most pets can go home the same day as their procedure. We will also monitor your pet before, during, and after their procedure to make sure they are safe.
We also recommend you brush your pet's teeth at home to keep their gums and teeth healthy in between oral health visits. One of our veterinarians would be happy to show you how to correctly brush your pet's teeth during your visit with us.
You can email, call (419) 750-5056, or visit our office to make an appointment or request an appointment online from our website. Please contact us if you have any questions about our veterinarians, facility, or practice. We are here to help you and your pets.
