Chula Vista Veterinarian Offers Pet Dental Services
(firmenpresse) - CHULA VISTA, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 12/29/11 -- The team of pet healthcare professionals at South Bay Veterinary Hospital in Chula Vista, CA includes and cats' teeth as part of their services because of its impact on overall pet health. Similar to humans, healthy teeth can play a pivotal role in ongoing pet wellness. The Chula Vista veterinarians believe it is important to provide this service because nearly 80% of all cats and dogs develop periodontal disease if their teeth are not cleaned regularly. If pets' teeth become decayed or abscessed, it could lower their immune system and increase the likelihood of other medical problems.
Healthy teeth are also important to pets' ability to digest food completely and receive proper nutrition, especially in older animals. The can show pet owners how to begin instilling proper dental care as soon as pets are brought home. Dr. Deo also recommends cleaning dogs' teeth and cats' teeth professionally at the vet clinic as part of an annual pet wellness examination. If there is a significant amount of plaque build-up, the veterinarian removes it in the same way as a dental hygienist removes human plaque. Dental instruments are used to scrape above and below the gum line, and then the teeth are polished.
In addition to and cats' teeth, South Bay offers more advanced pet dental services. In severe cases, the veterinarian may need to extract a tooth while the pet is sedated and closely monitored. Commenting on the pet dental services offered at the veterinary clinic, Dr. Deo said, "If you can imagine what life would be like for a human without proper dental care, then you can imagine what it could be like for your pet. Imagine not being able to chew properly or experiencing pain every time you eat. There's no need for pets to suffer like that when there is so much more we can do to help them with their dental care. I'm glad to offer this service as part of our practice and strongly encourage pet owners to consider dental care an important part of their pets' total health regimen."
The vet also advises pet owners to train their pets to have good eating habits that will build strong teeth and gums. Dry pet food is more helpful than moist food in building strong teeth and keeping them clean. Dry dog bones and rubber chew toys are also a great way to keep teeth and gums plaque-free. South Bay Veterinary Hospital, which is certified by the American Animal Hospital Association, is located at 1038 Broadway in Chula Vista.
