The free dental includes scaling to remove tartar build-up and a polish including dental radiographs plus a dental and gum health assessment. Corrective dental procedures can be expensive. An annual dental check that includes a scale and polish is designed to take preventative action before dental disease takes hold and expensive treatment and surgery are needed. If dental disease requiring more extensive action, such as dental extractions is identified Best Mates members receive 10% off these procedures. You will receive a full dental report at the time of your pet’s dental that identifies if any further action is required. Remember that 80% of dogs and 70% of cats have some form of dental disease by age 3!
