It’s Pet Dental Health Month! PDF Print E-mail

(January 31, 2012   Stillwater, OK) – Oklahoma State University’s Center for Veterinary Health Sciences reminds all pet owners that February is National Pet Dental Health Month and dental health is just as important for pets as it is for their owners!

 

According to the partners in the “Pets Need Dental Care, Too” campaign, which include the American Veterinary Medical Association and the American Veterinary Dental Society, oral health is vital to the overall health of animals.  Bad breath can be an indication of a more serious problem and warrants a visit to your veterinarian.

 

For best results, follow three simple steps:

 

  1. Take your pet to its veterinarian for a dental exam.
  2. Begin a dental care regimen at home in consultation with your veterinarian.
  3. Schedule regular veterinary checkups.

 

Prevent periodontal disease in your pets and provide the optimal health care for your animals.  Schedule your pets’ dental health appointment today!
