  • Prevents Gum Disease: Plaque and tartar buildup can lead to gingivitis, an inflammation of the gums. If left untreated, gingivitis can progress to periodontitis, a more severe condition that can cause tooth loss and even systemic health issues.

  • Reduces Bad Breath: Bad breath is often a sign of dental problems. Dental scaling can help eliminate the source of bad breath, leaving your dog's breath fresher.

  • Improves Overall Health: Dental health is closely linked to overall health. Oral bacteria can enter the bloodstream and affect other organs, so maintaining good dental hygiene is essential.
