Pet Plans
Dental Health Plan
The Dental Health Plan takes the fee of a dental procedure with no extractions and spaces it out monthly. The plan can vary depending on the age and species of the pet.
Have you heard about our 12 Month Dental Health Plan?
The Dental Health Plan spaces out the fee of a dental cleaning over 12 months so your pet can receive a routine cleaning every year, complete with excellent bonus features.
Costs range from $119.12 to $135.24 (includes taxes). Enrollment is $200.00. Please call the clinic for more details!
Imagine what your mouth would feel like if you never brushed your teeth or went to the dentist.
For many dogs and cats, this is a painful reality. According to the American Veterinary Dental Society, more than 80% of dogs and 70% of cats have dental disease by the age of 3. Dental (or periodontal) disease is the most frequently diagnosed health problem in pets.
Common signs of dental disease include:
- Yellow or brown buildup (tartar) on the teeth
- Red, swollen, or bleeding gums
- Bad breath
- Excessive drooling
- Changes in eating or chewing habits
- Pawing at the face
- Loose teeth
- Depression
Even if your dog or cat doesn’t have these symptoms, we recommend that you have a veterinarian evaluate your pet’s dental health at least once a year. Bacteria and food debris accumulate around the teeth and, if left unchecked, will lead to deterioration of the soft tissue and bone surrounding the teeth. This decay can result in irreversible periodontal disease, tooth loss, and possibly expensive oral surgery.
Dental disease can also affect other organs in the body: Bacteria in the mouth can get into the bloodstream and cause serious infections in the kidneys, liver, lungs, and heart. If these problems aren’t caught and treated quickly enough, they can result in death. A physical exam combined with appropriate laboratory work can determine if infection in the mouth has spread.
Schedule your pet’s dental exam today! We can also show you how to brush your pet’s teeth and recommend foods and treats that will help combat plaque and tartar buildup.
This is why we do not recommend chewing on bones or hard objects
