🦷 What Is Plaque?

Plaque is a soft, sticky film made of bacteria, food particles, and saliva that forms on your dog’s teeth every day. If not cleaned, it hardens into tartar, which can lead to:

• Gum disease (gingivitis)

• Painful infections

• Tooth loss

• Bad breath

• Even heart or kidney problems if bacteria enter the bloodstream

🐾 Signs Your Dog May Need Plaque Removal

• Bad breath that doesn’t go away

• Yellow or brown buildup on teeth

• Red, swollen gums

• Drooling more than usual

• Trouble chewing or dropping food

• Pawing at the mouth

🧼 How Do We Remove Plaque?

Our professional dental cleaning is done safely under anesthesia, so your dog stays comfortable and still while we:

1. Examine the mouth – checking for loose teeth or gum disease

2. Scale the teeth – removing plaque and tartar above and below the gumline

3. Polish the teeth – to smooth the surface and slow down future buildup

4. Take dental x-rays – if needed, to check for hidden issues

Your dog wakes up with a fresh, clean mouth – and often more energy too!
