According to the clinic staff, poor oral hygiene is a condition that affects many dogs, cats and small domesticated animals, but regular professional and home dental care can prevent these conditions.
According to Dr. Kellee Campbell, and owner of the Dessau Veterinary Clinic, "Pet dental health is a major contributor to a pet's overall health. Oral infections that go untreated could develop into much larger health issues for the animal including widespread infection or progressive tooth decay." In these types of situations the may be required to remove the infected tooth, provide the animal with medication to heal the infection or perform other surgical procedures in the event that the infection spreads to other areas of the animal's body.
In an effort to promote good pet dental health and encourage pet owners to make pet dental appointments, the clinic is offering 25% off all Dentals during the 29 days of February.

While Dr. Campbell and Dr. Susan Waage recommend that all cats and dogs have a professional dental exam and teeth cleaning once a year, they offered a few tips for pet owners to conduct an at home exam. Dr. Waage said, "Pet owners can conduct a basic assessment of their pet's oral health by examining their pet's teeth, gums and breath. Since oral diseases often occur as a result of plaque buildup and bacteria that settles between the animal's teeth and gums, pet owners should be on the lookout for swollen gums, tooth discoloration and breath that has a strong pungent odor. Pet owners who suspect that their animal may have an oral infection should schedule a visit with our right away for an oral exam."
In addition to professional pet dental care, pet owners can take steps to reduce the risk of oral infection by regularly cleaning their pet's teeth with a small brush and paste that is specially formulated for use with dogs and cats, said the . "In some cases, you may need to work with your pet over time until he or she gets comfortable with the procedure. However, pet owners who would like further guidance with their pet's oral care should visit our ," said Dr. Campbell.
