Why Pet Dental Health Matters So Much

Dental disease is one of the most common medical conditions we see in both cats and dogs, and it’s also unfortunately one of the most overlooked. While tartar, bad breath, or tooth discoloration might not seem like that big of a deal, untreated dental issues can lead to:

  • Painful infections and abscesses

  • Tooth loss and difficulty eating

  • Damage to the heart, liver, and kidneys from bacteria entering the bloodstream

  • Chronic discomfort and weight loss

Regular teeth cleanings and oral assessments allow us to treat problems early, or better yet, prevent them altogether. Pets who receive routine dental care not only feel better day to day, but they also tend to live longer, healthier lives.

What’s Included in Your Pet’s Professional Dental Cleaning

When your pet comes in for a dental procedure, they’re not just getting a quick polish. We provide a comprehensive oral health assessment and teeth cleaning that digs deeper (literally and figuratively) to ensure their entire mouth is healthy.

Every dental cleaning includes:

  • Pre-anesthetic exam and tailored anesthesia plan to ensure your pet’s safety and comfort.

  • Full-mouth digital dental X-rays to detect problems hidden beneath the gumline, where over 60% of the tooth structure hides.

  • Ultrasonic scaling and polishing to remove plaque and tartar from every tooth surface, above and below the gumline.

  • A detailed oral exam to check for gum disease, loose or fractured teeth, masses, and other abnormalities.

  • Extractions if needed, as we’re highly skilled and comfortable with simple and complex extractions, including full-mouth cases.

  • Pain management and recovery support every step of the way.

  • Post-procedure care plan so you know exactly how to support your pet at home.

Let’s Get to the Root of Oral Health Issues

Dental disease doesn’t show up overnight, but it can sneak up on even the most attentive pet parents. If your pet has bad breath, is drooling more than usual, hesitates to eat, or just hasn’t had a dental check in over a year, it might be time to schedule an oral health exam.
