Protect Against Dental Disease with Cat and Dog Teeth Cleaning in Saratoga Springs, NY

Did you know that many dogs and cats develop dental disease by the age of 2? Dental disease occurs when plaque moves below the gum line, causing damage to both the tooth and supporting structures. Regular cat and dog teeth cleaning appointments are a great way to help prevent dental disease and keep your pet's mouth healthy. At Cornerstone Veterinary Hospital of Saratoga Springs, our team is committed to guiding pet owners on maintaining excellent dental care for their furry friends.

Does My Pet Have Dental Disease?

Pets often hide signs of pain or discomfort, making it challenging to recognize oral health issues. Even with dental problems, many cats and dogs will continue to eat normally. Here are some signs that your pet may need a professional cleaning:

  • Red, inflamed gums
  • Loose or broken teeth
  • Persistent bad breath
  • Yellow or brown stains on teeth
  • Excessive drooling
  • Dropping food while eating
  • Swelling around the mouth or face
  • Pawing at their mouth

 

At-Home Dental Care for Your Dog or Cat

To help maintain your pet's dental health between professional cleanings, we recommend brushing your pet’s teeth daily or as frequently as possible. Starting this routine when your pet is young can make it easier for them to adjust and help maintain their oral health from an early age. Additional ways to care for your pet’s teeth at home include dental chews, wipes, special treats, or a diet designed for oral health. Our team is here to support you in creating a personalized dental care plan that fits your pet's needs. For more information or to schedule an appointment, call us today at (518) 691-3300.
