Aside from well-pet examinations, consistent dental care is perhaps the most importance maintenance item you can provide your pet. Normal aging in pets, just as in people, results in gradual stress on the dentition and gums. Poor oral health can haunt your pet as it grows older. Complications of tooth and gum disease include poor appetite, weight loss, and systemic disease caused by absorbtion of bacteria and toxins from an infected mouth.
