Description: They say you should only brush the teeth you want to keep, and the same is true for pets. Canine and feline companions need dental care, just as much as people do, but unfortunately, oral health is often one of the most neglected aspects of a pet's health. In fact, more than half of all dogs and cats have some form of periodontal disease by age 3, due to the lack of sufficient dental care.Here at Arcata Animal Hospital, we want to prevent dental disease in any way we can. That's why we offer comprehensive dental services and place such a strong emphasis on preventive care, which typically begins with the annual physical exam. During these exams, we will evaluate your pet's teeth and let you know when it is time for a dental cleaning. If cleaning is done early and often, advanced periodontal disease can be avoided - saving your pet from pain and loss of teeth, and saving you money by avoiding more complicated and involved dental procedures.
