During National Pet Dental Health Month each February, pet owners are reminded that dogs and cats need good oral care (хороший уход за полостью рта). An educational campaign to consumers, sponsored by the American Veterinary Medical Association and the American Veterinary Dental Society with an educational grant provided by Hill's Pet Nutrition, Inc., helps pet owners understand the importance of regular dental care (регулярный уход за полостью рта) for their pets.

Particularly at risk are small dog breeds (порода маленьких собак), such as Pekingese and Shih Tzu. Experts say these breeds are more likely to develop tooth problems (проблемы с зубами) because their teeth are crowded into small mouths. This can create a haven for plaque buildup (развитие налета).

Cervical line lesions (CLL) (поражение линии шейки зубов) are the most common dental disease of domestic cats. Studies show that about 28 percent of domestic cats that veterinarians examine have CLL. Because the lesions often begin beneath the gum line (линия десны), owners usually are unaware that there is a problem until the tooth is seriously damaged.
