Does your pet's mouth smell eww? Odor can signal serious health problems.



Bad breath is often an indication of periodontal disease that can be minor tartar buildup or severe calculus buildup with loose teeth. At times, it can also be an indication of more serious health issues. To provide the best care for your pet, it's best to visit your veterinarian regularly for a wellness exam, including a dental check-up. Your veterinarian will be able to help you determine the best schedule of care for your pet, including any additional tests that may be needed to find the source of the bad smell, and any at-home care that you can provide.
