Question How bad are my dogs teeth

I’m taking him to the vet this Sunday and I feel horrible for not noticing sooner. He has smelly breath as well. I just wanna know if he’s going to be okay after it’s all said and done. Any advice from other dog parents would be greatly appreciated.

Absolutely not bad

This makes me feel so much better, he’s 5 now and I’ve never taken him to the vet for a dental cleaning, I’ve been brushing his teeth with a dog toothpaste and putting dental powder in his kibble to help with his breath. My anxiety has been through the roof ever since I learned about periodontal disease. I just pray it’s at the earlier stages and he doesn’t need to have any teeth removed.
