Why does my cat or dog have bad breath?

The main cause is a buildup of bacteria in dental tartar, which causes gum inflammation (Gingivitis). If left untreated, these bacteria can spread to the heart and kidneys.

Can teeth scaling be done at home?

NOT RECOMMENDED. Dental scaling requires an ultrasonic device and full anesthesia to clean thoroughly beneath the gumline without causing pain. We only perform initial examinations at home, then refer to our partner clinic.

Is teeth scaling painful?

Not at all, because it is performed under full anesthesia. Your pet will sleep comfortably through it, and wake up with clean teeth and fresh breath.

Pet Bad Breath & Tartar Buildup? Don't Wait Until Their Teeth Fall Out!

Have you ever pulled away when your pet tried to cuddle because of their terrible breath? Do not ignore it! Bad breath (Halitosis) is a warning alarm.

Dental tartar is not just a cosmetic issue. The bacterial buildup on teeth is a "time bomb" that slowly destroys the gums, causes loose or missing teeth, and can spread infection to the heart valves.
