Periodontal disease affects 85% of adult dogs and cats and can lead to pain, bad breath and tooth loss. Even worse, chronic oral infection can spread harmful bacteria to other parts of the body, including the lungs, heart, liver and kidneys. Fortunately most periodontal disease is preventable through a program of oral hygiene and regular professional care.
Routine home dental care should be a part of every pet's preventive medicine program.
