It is estimated that 80% of pets over three years old will have some degree of dental or periodontal disease. Prevention is better than cure, so it’s important to have regular dental checks at the clinic. At Summerhill Vets, one of our pet vet team can easily and quickly check your pets’ teeth to see if they need dental cleaning and treatment.

Regular dental cleaning and x-rays will prevent future complications, such as infections, gingivitis, and periodontal disease. Periodontal disease can cause bad breath (halitosis), bleeding gums, pain, and may put your pet at higher risk for kidney, liver, and heart disease.
