Dog tartar is a concern for many pet owners. If left untreated, tartars can cause the decay and fall of teeth and roots. This will have a great impact on the dog's daily diet and physical health. If the dog has rotted the roots due to severe tartars, what should it be done?
First, the pet owner should immediately take the dog to the veterinary clinic for examination and treatment.
The veterinarian performs a comprehensive oral examination, including oral X-rays and oral cleaning, to determine the extent of damage to the teeth and roots.
If the teeth are severely damaged, of course, tooth extraction is required.
However, before tooth extraction, the veterinarian needs to evaluate the dog's physical condition to ensure that the dental removal surgery is safe.
In addition, a veterinarian may prescribe oral antibiotics to the dog to prevent infection and pain.
For dogs' teeth rotten, the veterinarian can perform filling surgery.
Filling is like filling the root with a cement block to support the dog's jaw and helping the dog recover its ability to chew food in future life.
In addition to veterinary treatment, pet owners also need to adopt the correct feeding methods and oral care to maintain oral health of their dogs.
For example, special tools for cleaning dog teeth can be used or a veterinarian can perform dental cleaning and examinations annually.
In addition, pet owners also need to regularly check for changes or abnormalities in the dog's mouth to promptly detect oral problems, such as tartars or rotting teeth.
Finally, pet owners should also take some precautions to avoid serious dentifritics in dogs.
This includes regular brushing of teeth, providing a clean diet, avoiding sweets and excessive human food for dogs, and regular drinking of water for dogs.
Pet owners can also use some dental health care products for their dogs, such as oral cleaning fluids and drinking water additives.
In short, dog tartar is a common oral problem, but its severity is avoidable.
To maintain the oral health of the dog, pet owners need to adopt the correct feeding methods and oral care, and take the dog to the veterinary clinic for treatment when dental problems arise.
Through these measures, the oral health of the dog will be greatly improved, thereby improving the quality of life of the dog.
