By age three, 80% of dogs and 70% of cats have some evidence of periodontal disease. Periodic dental exams help maintain proper oral hygiene and prevent future problems.
We offer complete pet oral health services, including:
Simple and complex tooth extractions
How Will I Know If My Pet Has Dental Disease?
How Do I Prevent Dental Disease?
As part of our annual examination, we will evaluate your pet’s teeth and will recommend an oral health care plan. This typically involves daily toothbrushing, dental diets, chews, water additives or sealants.
How Is Dental Disease Treated?
If your pet has evidence of periodontal disease, we will recommend further treatment. To perform a thorough oral examination, dental cleaning and dental radiographs, general anesthesia is required. A dental cleaning involves using a dental scaler and cleaning above and below the gum line, followed by polishing and a fluoride treatment.
Dental radiographs are performed to evaluate for disease below the gum line. We provide all our patients with IV fluids and monitor them closely during the procedure. We will provide pain medication or antibiotics if necessary. Our dental patients can go home the same day as their dental procedure. If during our examination, we find that your pet needs a more complex dental procedure such as a root canal or crown, we may refer you to a veterinary dental specialist.
