Proper dental care can detect dental disease that not only affects
the mouth, but can also lead to more serious health problems such as heart,
lung, and kidney disease. Good dental hygiene is just as important for pets as
it is for humans.
Yet, it is one of the most overlooked areas in pet
health. Studies by the American Animal Hospital Association
(AAHA) reveal that nearly two-thirds of pet owners do not provide the
dental care recommended by veterinarians. AAHA’s Dental Care Guidelines for
Dogs and Cats are a working framework for small animal dentistry practice,
including dental examinations, cleanings, and surgical procedures.
