Pet Dental Care

Regular Dental Care Adds Years to Your Pet’s Life  

We use modern and safe ultrasound to clean each tooth thoroughly above and below the gum line. We polish teeth to create a smooth tooth surface more resistant to plaque buildup. Advanced dental care is available, including extraction surgery. 

Our goal in providing these services is to keep your pet’s mouth healthy and pain-free for years to come.  Proper dental care can increase the lifespan of your pet.  Once your pet is placed under anesthesia, we will fully examine your pet’s teeth.  During examination, your veterinarian may identify a condition that may require an advanced dental procedure.  The findings will be discussed with you while your pet is still under anesthesia so that you can make the best treatment decisions.  

At Home Dental Care:

Oravet Chews will help reduce or eliminate plaque buildup, along with brushing your pet's teeth every day.  Plaque, which is an accumulation of bacteria, will progress to periodontitis, which is characterized by pockets of chronic infection, oral pain, and severe infections.  Left untreated, it will eventually loosen and destroy the tooth and possibly lead to bone loss.  The infection under the gum line can also spread to the liver, kidneys and heart.

Signs of oral and dental diseases in dogs and cats:

• Loss of appetite or loss of weight
• Bad breath
• Loose tooth or teeth that are discolored or covered in tartar
• Your pet shies away from you when you touch the mouth area
• Drooling or dropping food from the mouth.
• Bleeding from the mouth
• Loss of appetite or loss of weight

If you think your dog or cat exhibits any of these signs, please call us at your earliest convenience to arrange for a dental exam for your pet.
