Did you know that your Husky may need to have routine dental care throughout his lifetime? Some dogs may only require a few short dentist office visits while others need daily care. For instance, if your Husky has gingivitis then he should have his teeth brushed one to two times a day. Cleanings should also be followed up with professional vet cleanings as well. In some cases where brushing isn’t enough to cause a change, you will need to take your pup in for professional dental cleanings and dental exams. Professional cleanings can help rid the mouth of tartar and plaque buildup. During the dental exam your Husky will be sedated and your vet may check the teeth and gums for plaque and bacteria. Your veterinarian Fort Collins, CO may also take this time to scrape excessive plaque, calculus build-up and other debris from your Husky’s teeth.
