Dental Disease
Dental disease is the most common infectious disease of our pets. Over 80% of cats and dogs over the age of 3 require dental treatment now.
This is really quite frightening. Hundreds of thousands of pets are walking around suffering from disease - often without their owners being aware of a problem.
Whilst dental disease is unpleasant - leading to bad breath, pain, discharges and often the loss of teeth; the effects do not stay confined to the mouth. Bacteria spread via the bloodstream and can attack the kidneys, heart, liver – indeed the whole body. This is why pets often feel so much better after proper dental treatment – owners often reporting that they seem like puppies or kittens again.
