One component that’s commonly overlooked by even the best pet parents is dental care.
Routine exams and cleanings are just as important for dogs and cats as they are for people, but unfortunately, many pets go their entire lives without receiving these vital services. At Coastal Animal Medical Center, we believe that dental care is a key component of wellness care for pets. For this reason, we are thrilled to provide comprehensive pet dentistry services in Lakewood Ranch. If your furry friend is in need of dental care, we’d love to have them as a patient.
Why Pet Dentistry Is So Important
By the age of three, 80 percent of dogs and 70 percent of cats suffer from some form of dental disease, which is the most common problem affecting pets. In addition to causing bad breath and tooth discoloration, untreated dental disease can cause pain, difficulty eating, and infections. It can even affect the heart, liver, and kidneys. Despite these disturbing facts, many pets do not receive appropriate professional dental care.
Here at Coastal Animal Medical Center, we perform thorough cleanings and exams to keep pets’ teeth in great shape. Professional cleanings allow us to clean below the gum line to remove plaque and tartar that cannot be removed during at-home cleanings. We also take digital x-rays, perform extractions, and apply bonded sealants and antibiotic gel as needed.
