Dental health isn’t just important for humans – it’s essential for our pets too! Take a look at these incredible before and after images of a 2.5-year-old, 50lb dog who received a professional dental cleaning. The transformation is not only impressive- it’s life changing for them.

Before (Top Image): You can clearly see the buildup of plaque and tartar, along with significant dental disease. This level of dental neglect can lead to pain, infection, and even damage to internal organs over time.

After (Bottom Image) ✨ : What a difference! The teeth are now clean, white, and healthy. A clean mouth means healthier, more comfortable, and a happier pet. Just like in humans, good dental care supports overall health.

🦷 Why Pet Dental Care Matters

Did you know that dental disease is one of the most common medical conditions seen by veterinarians? Most dogs show signs of dental disease by age 3 – yet with proper care, its largely preventable.

According to the American Veterinary Dental Association (AVDA), here’s what they recommend:

✔️ First dental cleaning before age 3

✔️ Follow-up cleanings annually

By starting early and maintaining regular dental care, you can help your dog live a longer, healthier life.

🪥 Tips for Pet Parents

  • Brush your pet’s teeth at home regularly with pet-safe toothpaste
  • Offer dental chews and toys that help reduce plaque buildup
  • Schedule annual dental exams and professional cleanings with your vet
