Signs Your Pet Needs Dental Care

Our pets are like our kids but, unlike children, pets can’t always let us know when something is wrong. Because of this, it’s important that you’re aware of the commons symptoms of dental/oral issues in cats and dogs so you can schedule an appointment for your pet at the first sign of trouble.

Some of the most common signs that your pet may need dental care include:

• Very bad breath, or a change in typical breath odor
• Yellow or brown stains on the teeth or around the gums
• Unwillingness to chew food (swallowing food whole, lack of appetite, etc.)
• Inflamed, swollen, red, or bleeding gums
• Excessive drooling, especially if drooling appears to be more than usual
• Visible growths on the gums (typically present as lumps or bumps)
• Pawing at the mouth or other signs of obvious discomfort

If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s a good idea to schedule an appointment with a professional animal dentist who can examine your pet and diagnose any present conditions. Your pet may simply need a routine teeth cleaning or he or she could be dealing with a larger issue, like gum disease. Only a qualified veterinarian will be able to make an accurate diagnosis.
