How to Care for Your Dog’s Teeth
There's nothing better than getting home after a long day of work and being greeted by your tail-wagging, furry friend.
Unless, of course, your dog suffers from bad breath.
Just like humans, a dogs mouth needs to be taken care of to ensure proper oral health. In fact, one survey of Swedish dog owners found that a staggering 80% of canines over the age of three had some degree of periodontal disease.
Like us, a dog’s oral health is connected to their overall health! Here are a few steps you can take to manage your dog's dental needs.
Crunchy apples or celery sticks help to rid a human's mouth of plaque and tartar, but for dogs, dry, crunchy kibble is ideal to tackle tartar buildup. Soft foods are more likely to get stuck to their teeth. Of course, we recommend speaking with your vet before making any dietary changes.
Choose toys that promote oral health. One popular brand called Kong makes toys out of hard rubber, which is a perfect substance for removing plaque as it's hard, yet soft enough that they won't break their teeth when chewing on it.
Brush their teeth. Just like humans, daily brushing is recommended. It's best to make this a part of their daily routine during whatever time of day they're most calm and relaxed. If daily brushing seems impossible, aiming for even three days per week can make a difference in their oral health.
Take your dog to the vet for a dental exam once each year. Your vet will typically look for things like bleeding, red, or swollen gums as well as broken or discolored teeth. If they find any issues, they'll be sure to let you know what type of treatment or care is needed.

Just because you don't see a cavity doesn't always mean you don't have one. Sometimes cavities aren't visible to the bare eye but may show up in dental x-rays. That is why it is important to have your teeth periodically x-rayed and examined by a dental professional. Warning signs of a cavity may include sensitivity to sweets and temperatures. 😁
A lip or mouth sore that doesn’t heal. A white or reddish patch on the inside of your mouth. Ear or mouth pain. Difficulty swallowing. These are some symptoms that could indicate oral cancer. During your regular dental visits, we’ll check for any signs of oral cancer by looking for suspicious spots and feeling for lumps in and around your mouth, inside your cheeks, under your tongue, and other areas of your head and neck. Be healthy and safe by calling to schedule your oral cancer screening today. 512-258-9130 😁
A recent survey conducted of 2000 Americans found 76% of people base their first impression of others on their smile. How's your smile and what impression are you making?

If you suddenly notice you are experiencing bleeding and irritated gums and have never had an issue before, your symptoms may be related to a COVID exposure. It is a good idea to get tested for the virus to rule out the cause and have your dentist examine your mouth.

Happy Valentine’s Day from Dr. Scaff, Team and Gina’s adorable grandson Dawson! 🥰
Got yuck mouth? Well, you could if it’s been awhile since your last teeth cleaning. Tartar build up can occur when you don’t keep up with your dental care and typically requires professional removal which is key to maintaining your oral health. Left unchecked, tartar can cause tooth decay, cavities, erosion of gum tissue, gum disease and other medical and dental problems. So if it’s been awhile since your last teeth cleaning, get back on track and schedule one today.
Happy National Groundhog Day! Here’s to 6 more weeks of winter.

If your toothbrush is starting to resemble an Island Boy after a couple of weeks of use, then you probably are brushing too hard. A typical toothbrush head should last you 3 months with everyday use before needing to be replaced.
