Warning Signs of Dog Dental Care Problems

Dogs are skilled at masking oral discomfort, which can make it challenging to detect dental issues. Watch for these subtle signs that may indicate your dog is experiencing dental problems:

  • Persistent bad breath (halitosis)
  • Red, swollen, or inflamed gums (gingivitis)
  • Tartar buildup or discoloration on teeth
  • Loose teeth or sensitivity around the mouth

If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s important to schedule a dog dental examination with Eastcott Vets. Early detection and intervention can prevent more severe dog dental problems, sparing them from unnecessary pain and discomfort.

Advanced Dog Dental Care Issues

Left untreated, dog dental disease can progress to more severe conditions that significantly affect your dog’s health and well-being. Signs of advanced dental issues include:

  • Excessive drooling or hypersalivation
  • Bleeding from the mouth or gums
  • Difficulty eating or chewing on one side of the mouth
  • Swelling around the jaw, mouth, or face (potential tooth root abscesses)

Advanced dog dental care may involve professional cleaning procedures such as scaling and polishing or more extensive treatments, including tooth extractions, performed under general anaesthesia. Regular checkups and professional cleanings can help catch these problems early, reducing the need for complex procedures.

If you detect any of the above signs, please contact Eastcott Vets in Swindon to book an appointment for a vet to examine your dog as soon as possible.

Preventing Dog Dental Disease

Prevention is always better than cure when it comes to your dog’s oral health. Here are some essential steps to keep your dog’s teeth and gums in top condition:

  • Daily Brushing: Regular tooth brushing your dog’s teeth is the best way to prevent plaque and tartar buildup. Starting early makes it easier, but brushing can be introduced at any age with patience and the right technique.
  • Routine Dental Checkups: Regular veterinary checkups ensure that any signs of dog dental disease are caught early. Professional scaling and polishing, as needed, can prevent more serious issues from developing.
  • Specialised Products: Veterinary-recommended dental diets, chews, and water additives can help reduce plaque and maintain fresh breath between brushings.

At Eastcott Vets, we are here to support you in maintaining your dog’s dental care up to date. Whether you need advice on brushing techniques or product recommendations, our team is happy to help.
