Dentistry

Is bad breath coming between you and your pet?

Despite what you may have heard, foul breath isn’t something that pet owners simply must learn to live with. To the contrary, it’s probably a sign that your pet needs to visit the dentist. 

Without proper care, your companion’s mouth can attract and harbor dangerous bacteria, which can spread through the bloodstream and cause many other health problems. Left untreated, dental disease can even shorten your pet’s life. 

Fortunately, with the right support, this can all be prevented.

The professional dentistry services at Cherry Hill Dog & Cat Clinic include both routine, preventative care as well as advanced treatment for existing oral conditions. 

Some of the signs of dental disease in dogs and cats include, but are not limited to:

• Bad breath
• Excessive drooling
• Dropping food 
• Sudden disinterest in chew toys
• Loss of appetite
• Swollen or painful face
• Pawing at the mouth
• Yellow, broken, loose or missing teeth
• Gums that are red, swollen or bleeding

If your pet is exhibiting any of these signs, it’s time to schedule a dental exam. We’ll identify the problem and address it quickly, improving the prognosis for your loved one. We’ll also show you things you can do at home to help keep your pet’s teeth and gums healthy and disease-free in between visits. 

You deserve to enjoy lots of close snuggles with your pet. The comprehensive dental services at Cherry Hill Dog & Cat Clinic can help get you there!
