Did you know? Dental disease affects 70-85% of dogs and cats over two years old. Proper dental care is essential for your pet’s overall health, as gum disease is one of the most common conditions veterinarians encounter. Plaque and tartar buildup can lead to serious health issues, including heart, liver, and kidney diseases.

If you notice any of these signs, your pet may benefit from a dental cleaning.
