Our goal is to keep your pet's teeth as clean and disease
free as possible.
Pets, like people, need teeth cleaning on a periodic
basis. The interval between professional dentals depends
on many factors, but most importantly, on the home care(brushing
teeth at home) and on the genetic make-up of your pet.
Our licensed veterinary technicians perform teeth cleaning
for our patients. Pets must be anesthetized for this
procedure to enable us to properly remove tartar from
all surfaces of the teeth.
We use an ultrasonic descaler and a high speed polisher.
We extract any teeth with root decay. Dental x-rays
are used to diagnose any decay or disease of the mouth
that lies underneath the gum’s surface. Having
a dental x-ray machine gives us the capability of a
complete oral exam. The patient is admitted to the hospital
in the morning, and is discharged in the afternoon.
Please ask us what you can do to keep your pet's teeth
healthy and breath fresh. We will be happy to discuss
with you any questions that you may have about dental
cleaning.
