Preventative Care & Dental Treatment
Just like humans, animals need quality dental care to ward off disease and ensure good oral health. It’s important to not only provide your pet with proper at-home dental care but also to schedule regular professional dentistry services for your pet as part of his or her overall wellness plan.
At Quakertown Veterinary Clinic, we provide comprehensive pet dentistry. We offer both preventative dental services and disease treatment.
Contact us online or call (215) 515-8810 for small animal service, or (215) 515-6909 for large animal services, to make an appointment.

What Is Periodontal Disease?
Periodontal disease is the most common dental disease affecting both cats and dogs. In fact, statistics have revealed that up to 80% of cats and dogs exhibit signs of oral disease by age three.
Periodontal disease in animals is most commonly caused by poor dental hygiene. Additionally, it is more common in smaller dog breeds and certain breeds of cats, as there is typically less room in the mouth for teeth, which are then forced tightly together. Periodontal disease is also more common in aging and senior pets.
- Significantly bad breath
- Discolored teeth (yellow/brown)
- Tooth loss
- Bleeding gums
- Excessive drooling
- Change in eating habits
- Seeming unwillingness to chew food
