75% of pet's over the age of 3 have dental disease.Dogs are not supposed to have bad breath. Dental plaque, oral diseases, and other conditions can cause bad breath. Brushing your pet's teeth and having regular dental cleanings are beneficial for your pet and your pocketbook. Advanced dental disease can be painful to your pet and costly to treat.
Please remember that this is a wellness schedule and if your pet ever becomes ill, additional examinations and diagnostic test will be necessary.
