Smile! It’s National Pet Dental Health Month

To promote good oral healthcare for cats and dogs, February has been designated National Pet Dental Health Month. I want to be sure pet owners are aware of some of the veterinary resources available to help keep pet mouths healthy.

Your primary care veterinarian

The first place to start to keep your pet’s mouth clean and healthy is your veterinarian’s office. An oral examination is part of an annual (or biannual if you have an older pet) examination. A quick look in your pet’s mouth will quickly reveal how effective tooth brushing is in keeping tartar under control. Your veterinarian can recommend special food and products to keep teeth healthy and also choose the right time for a full dental cleaning. Keep in mind rabbits also have dental problems from over grown teeth. Your veterinarian needs to see those bunny choppers once or twice a year if you have an older rabbit.dental implants london

Board certified veterinary dentists

The American Veterinary Dental College (AVDC) is the nationally recognized certification body for veterinary dentists. In addition to earning a doctor of veterinary medicine degree, a board certified veterinary dentist has completed specialized training in veterinary dentistry under the guidance of a board certified mentor and successfully completed a certification examination. Your neighborhood veterinarian can provide routine dental care, but for big problems of teeth and gums, these highly trained veterinarians are the experts your pet needs. The AVDC also sponsors the Veterinary Oral Health Council (VOHC).cosmetic dentist london
