Here at Chess Veterinary Clinic, we understand that your pet’s oral health is just as important as any other routine preventative treatment. Like humans, pets can develop a build-up of tartar, leading to tooth decay and gum disease. Brushing your pet’s teeth once or twice a day is the best option for good oral hygiene.
