Good Oral Hygiene Goes a Long Way
The American Animal Hospital Association recently devised new guidelines for veterinarians in order to highlight the need for more professional oral hygiene care for pets. The organization stressed the necessity of going beyond the traditional “scraping the surface” of routine dental cleanings, known as “prophies.” Veterinarians are encouraged to teach owners the importance of good oral hygiene when puppies and kittens are only a few months old in order to begin a lifetime of healthy benefits that go far beyond sweet smelling kisses.

Frequently Asked Questions
Typically, young pets with healthy teeth might only need cleanings every 1-2 years. However, senior pets or those with dental problems may require cleanings more frequently. Our veterinarians will recommend a cleaning schedule tailored to your pet’s individual needs.
A dental cleaning is an outpatient procedure performed under general anesthesia. This ensures your pet is comfortable and doesn’t experience any pain during the cleaning. The veterinarian will thoroughly examine your pet’s mouth, clean their teeth with specialized scaling tools, and polish them to remove plaque and prevent future buildup.
Continue brushing your pet’s teeth regularly at home. You can also offer dental chews or toys specifically designed to promote oral health. Provide your pet with a soft diet for a few days following the procedure, especially if any extractions were performed.
