Why Dental Care for Pets Is Essential
Why should you consider routine dental care for pets important? Your pet's dental health can affect them in ways that go beyond their gums and teeth. For example, pet oral health has a strong and direct correlation with heart and kidney disease.
The Risks of Neglecting Your Pet's Dental Care
What happens if you neglect your pet's dental care?
- Plaque can build up quickly when you don't brush your pet's teeth. The bacteria can spread through the animal's body.
- When bacteria spreads to the gum, they can swell, feel painful, and even bleed. Your pet may struggle to eat.
- Tooth decay causes severe pain and can prevent your pet from obtaining all the nutrients they need from food.
- Other consequences of ignoring your dog's or cat's oral health include bad breath, loss of appetite, trouble sleeping, and increased aggressive behavior.
Benefits of Regular Animal Dentistry
When you frame animal dentistry as an opportunity to benefit your pet, you can see why you should consider it a good investment. Regular animal dental care provides them with the following advantages:
- By keeping your animal's teeth and gums healthy, you help them avoid the pain associated with dental problems.
- When your pet can chew food properly, they can receive all the nutrients they require.
- You deserve to spend as much time as possible with your pet, and maintaining their dental health helps prevent life-shortening health complications.
- You avoid paying for emergency interventions and more serious health complications when you schedule regular dental visits.
Our Professional Pet Dental Services
At Midway Road Animal Clinic, we provide the following dental services and more.
Comprehensive Dental Examinations
When you see signs of poor pet dental health, you need an expert pet dentist to diagnose and treat the problem. Our pet dental examination can detect cavities, gum disease, infections, and more. Once we know the issue, we devise a custom treatment plan.
Pet Teeth Cleaning and Polishing
Pet teeth cleaning is a fundamental component of your pet's healthcare. Consider it like an oil change for your car. When you allow a professional to regularly clean your dog's or cat's teeth, you give them the greatest chance of avoiding more serious issues.
Treatment for Dental Diseases
How can we treat dental diseases in pets? We don't assume what works for one animal works for another. We find the right solution, which can range from changing your pet's lifestyle to taking prescription medication and even surgical intervention.
Signs You Need a Pet Dentist
You should seek treatment from a pet dentist if you notice any of the following symptoms in your animal:
- Bad breath
- Excessive drooling
- Tooth discoloration
- Problems chewing
- Swollen gums
- Appetite loss
What to Expect During a Pet Dental Visit
What happens during your animal dental care visit? The process starts with a consultation and ends with post-treatment support.
Initial Consultation and Examination
When you first visit us, we examine your pet and discuss your pet's dental history. This helps us determine whether your animal needs a routine cleaning or more intensive intervention. No matter what we find, we treat you and your pet with compassion and dedication.
Anesthesia and Teeth Cleaning
Many pets feel anxious when they need teeth cleaning. We use anesthesia to keep them calm and safe so we can provide a detailed cleaning. Our anesthesia has a very low chance of side effects or allergic reactions.
Post-Treatment Recommendations
After treatment, we continue supporting you with advice, follow-ups, and treatment plans. We empower you to care for your animal's dental health at home between appointments. You should schedule routine appointments for your pet at least once a year.

At-Home Dental Care Tips for Pets
You can care for your pet's dental needs at home between your annual appointments using these useful tips.
Brushing Your Pet’s Teeth
You should try to brush your dog's or cat's teeth daily. Choose a toothbrush that matches their size and feels comfortable on their teeth. Find a veterinarian-approved toothpaste your dog or cat likes the taste of.
Dental Chews, Toys, and Diet
Dental treats provide entertainment for your pet while keeping their teeth clean, though they're not a substitute for cleanings. Chew toys can also serve the same function. If your dog or cat has a higher chance of dental complications, choose a food specifically designed to reduce plaque buildup.
