Our Dental Services
Dental check-ups are critical in helping your pet stay healthy. For this reason, we recommend a dental examination to determine if there are any potential problems with your pet's gum or teeth. Diagnosing problems early on can often lead to treatment and avoiding pet surgery to have teeth extracted.
The vet will do a thorough examination of your pet from nose to tail to ascertain his or her health status.
The dental portion includes cleaning and removing the build-up of tartar and plaque.
Our vet will discuss with you some of the ways you can help maintain your pet's dental health. This includes how to safely brush your pet's teeth using toothpaste specifically designed for pets and providing dental chews for cats and dogs.
A dental check-up and cleaning schedule will also be recommended, which usually involves a visit to the vet at least once a year.
