Did you know that dental disease is the most commonly diagnosed medical condition in adult dogs and cats? This serious condition can cause everything from bad breath to tooth loss, and can eventually spread disease throughout the entire body, including the heart, liver and kidneys. If left untreated, dental disease can even shorten your pet’s life. The reason so many companion animals are affected by this ailment is because their owners overlook one of the most important components of their pet’s health care plan: dentistry. You can prevent your pet from becoming a part of this statistic by making a commitment to regular dental care.
Ocean Breeze Animal Hospital offers comprehensive preventative and advanced pet dentistry services to help manage your pet’s dental health and tackle any problems as they occur throughout the course of your pet’s life.
