Pet Dental Care Services in Kitchener

It would be hard to digest, but around 80% of pets suffer from minor to major periodontal disease. This number is soaring as pet owners overlook the dental health issues of their pets. Pet owners need to understand that just like humans, pets also require dental services. A minor dental problem can lead to pain or discomfort, which can impact your pet's overall health. At Westheights Veterinary Hospital, we offer a range of oral health assessments and treatments at highly competitive prices.

Our pet dentistry service begins with a thorough assessment of your pet's teeth and gums. It includes probing the gums and a range of other dental treatments. Every year, we celebrate February as National Pet Dental Health Month.

Periodontal disease is associated with the gums, affecting the supporting structure of the tooth. Poor dental hygiene can lead to bad breath, bruxism, anorexia, and other diseases that can affect the teeth and overall health of pets.

Pet dentistry is as essential as human dentistry. Our vets place a strong emphasis on pet oral health care services for both cats and dogs. We educate owners about their pets’ oral health needs and how to control periodontal disease at its initial stage.

Neglecting your pet's oral health will not only cost you hundreds of dollars but also compromise its health. Pets are entirely dependent on their owners for their healthcare. Thus, it’s the owner's foremost responsibility to take their pets in for a routine oral health checkup.
