From preventing dental diseases to promoting better digestion and comfort, our expert care keeps your pet’s mouth healthy
Imagine how your teeth would look and feel if you didn’t brush them for years – or even for just a couple of weeks.
Ur pet’s teeth are no different. Pets are able to develop periodontal disease, tooth decay or other oral health issues just like people can. Just like in humans, when animals eat, plaque sticks to their teeth and can build up into tartar if not brushed away regularly. And while it’s recommended that pet parents brush their pet’s teeth at home, we know how hard this is to do regularly.
Many pet owners do not realize the importance of pet dental care and it is by far the most common major health problem of cats and dogs. According to the American Veterinary Dental Society, more than 80 percent of dogs and 70 percent of cats show signs of oral disease by the time they are three years old.

Yes — poor oral hygiene in pets can cause infections that spread to vital organs. That’s why early and consistent veterinary dental care is crucial.
Dental disease is one of the most common health issues in dogs and cats, especially in cities like New York. Over 80% of dogs and 70% of cats show signs by age 3. Without treatment, it can cause pain, tooth loss, and other serious health problems. Early detection and professional veterinary dental care help keep your pet healthy and comfortable.
To maintain your pet’s dental health between professional veterinary dental cleanings, brush their teeth regularly using pet-safe toothpaste and provide vet-approved dental chew toys to help reduce plaque. Avoid giving your dog or cat hard bones or toys that can damage their teeth.
