Dental Care

Dental (periodontal) disease is one of the most common and overlooked health issues in dogs and cats, affecting most pets by age 3.

Left untreated, early signs like bad breath, inflamed gums (gingivitis), and tartar buildup can lead to chronic pain, infection, and even organ damage.

Fortunately, dental disease is largely preventable, and it’s never too late to care for your pet’s oral health.

Prevention begins with routine care

 We offer comprehensive dental services to protect your pet’s health, including:

  • Dental exams as part of every routine visit
  • Oral health assessment and charting
  • Dental cleanings under anesthesia to remove plaque and tartar
  • Full-mouth digital X-rays to spot hidden problems below the gumline
  • Dental extractions (tooth removal) for damaged or infected teeth
  • At-home care guidance, including tooth brushing and dental diets

Safe, comfortable anesthetic dentistry

Because pets won’t sit still like people do, veterinary dental cleanings are performed under general anesthesia. This allows us to clean below the gumline, take accurate X-rays, and safely identify and treat problem areas while keeping your pet relaxed and stress-free.

Every patient is continuously monitored and receives comprehensive pain management for the highest level of safety and comfort.

Is it time for a dental visit?

 Signs that your pet may need a dental cleaning include:

  • Bad breath
  • Red or swollen gums
  • Broken or loose teeth
  • Visible brown or yellow tartar
  • Drooling or changes in eating habits
  • Facial swelling or pain

Dental disease is a progressive condition, but it’s not too late to restore your pet’s oral health. Contact our team to schedule a dental consultation.
