Dental care can help prevent oral disease in dogs.
Not all dogs have to undergo anesthesia or even be tranquilized to have their teeth cleaned.

The bacteria that lurk in a pet's mouth may be the cause of bad breath and more. Bacteria accumulation can lead to oral disease and increase the risk for disease in other organs, such as the heart, liver and kidneys, according to research by The American Veterinary Dental Society.

Protect your dog's teeth with regular cleaning. Brushing alone doesn't remove all debris or plaque build up leading to tarter and gum disease. Overwhelmed by your dogs breath? Regular cleaning will help! Having your dogs teeth cleaned does not need to be traumatic for your dog. Many dogs can have their teeth cleaned without the use of anesthesia or tranquilizers.
