Dentistry

Dental care plays an important role in your pet’s health, just as it does for you. In our well-equipped animal hospital, highly trained staff perform routine dental cleanings and consultations with owners for home dental care.

Our dental cleaning procedures include:

- Series of radiographs with a digital xray machine to check for loose teeth, cavities, pockets, or other abnormalities.

- Thorough oral exam to check for loose teeth and gum health.

- Ultrasonic scaling to remove buildup of tartar and plaque from the teeth and under the gum line.

- Polishing to remove plaque or film left by the scaling and to restore luster.

- Rinsing application using a chlorhexidine rinse followed by a fluoride treatment. Fluoride strenghtens tooth enamel and decreases the rate of plaque formation.
