Dental Care

Periodontal disease is one of the most common problems occurring within the veterinary practice. Plaque and calculus are deposited on your cat's teeth near the gum line. This generally occurs at about two years of age. Calcium salts can destroy teeth with their acidity. These salts also promote tarter and plaque. One of the first signs of periodontal disease is offensive mouth odor.
