february is national pet dental health month
Poor dental hygiene can put both your pet’s health and your pocket book at risk. “Dog breath” – or a cat with a foul-smelling mouth – can be a sign of untreated dental conditions. If left untreated, you may put your pet at risk for greater problems such as periodontitis or heart disease.
A complete veterinary examination can detect hidden health problems. Even if your pet’s breath smells fine, there still could be dental conditions that are hard to spot without an exam.

we take an alternative approach to dentals
Here at MASH, we assess each pet's situation to determine if a dental cleaning can be performed without anesthesia to reduce stress on your pet's immune system and improve the overall recovery time. Our dental surgeries include homeopathic support during and after the procedure to help with pain management and infection. We use ozonated saline to kill bacteria and increase the oxygen flow to the gums in order to reduce inflammation and allow for faster healing.
We recognize that your pet is an important member of your family and our caring, compassionate team is focused on optimizing your pet’s health. From well visits to chronic disease, we assess the whole pet so we can offer therapies that respect the integrity of your pet’s mind, body, and spirit.
