Essential Pet Dental Care Services
Are you maintaining your pet’s oral health? Just like humans, pets can suffer from gum disease, tooth pain, and other serious dental issues. We recommend regular dental exams, along with cleanings, diagnostic care, and specialized treatments as needed to keep your pet’s smile healthy.
Dental Examination
Annual dental cleanings and oral exams help protect your pet from diseases like Gingivitis and Periodontal Disease. The bacteria in plaque and tartar can lead to serious health issues, including heart, lung, liver, and kidney disease.
Signs of dental disease, such as Gingivitis and Periodontal Disease, can cause significant pain and discomfort for your pet.
These symptoms may include:
- Bad breath
- Excessive drooling
- Difficulty chewing
- Yellow or brown plaque buildup on teeth or gums
- Loss of appetite
- Teeth chattering
- Weight loss
- Sneezing and nasal discharge
- Irritability
Dental Radiography
Dental radiographs are essential for fully assessing your pet’s dental health. Since half of each tooth (the roots) cannot be seen by the naked eye, radiographs are crucial for making an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan. They are vital during dental procedures and help evaluate the success of the treatment.
Dental Cleaning
We take every precaution during dental cleanings to ensure your pet leaves with a healthy, sparkling smile! The procedure is performed under general anesthesia, and our skilled medical team will monitor your pet closely throughout the entire process and during recovery until they are stable and alert. Before the procedure, we conduct pre-surgical blood tests to ensure your pet is fit for anesthesia. Your furry companion will be monitored just as carefully as a human undergoing anesthesia, as we prioritize safety and take every precaution necessary.
At-Home Dental Care
Brushing your pet’s teeth daily, especially after meals, is highly beneficial for their oral health. If your pet is resistant, we can guide you through the process of getting them accustomed to brushing. We recommend starting at a young age to help your pet get used to the routine, making it easier for both of you in the long run!
