FAQs:
How often should my pet receive a dental cleaning?
Most pets should receive a dental cleaning once a year. However, this frequency can vary depending on your pet’s age, breed, overall health, and dental care received at home.
How do I know if my pet needs dental care?
If you notice that your pet has bad breath, stained teeth, or swollen gums, or you notice them having difficulty eating, then you should schedule a dental consultation.
Is anesthesia safe for pets?
Yes, anesthesia is safe for pets—especially when administered and monitored by our veterinarians and trained veterinary staff.
Does my pet really need a tooth extraction?
A tooth extraction can relieve your pet from pain and prevent serious infections—leaving your pet in better overall health and comfort. Your pet may need a tooth extraction due to periodontal disease, a fractured or broken tooth, oral tumors, or tooth decay.
Why does my pet's oral health matter?
Poor dental hygiene can lead to serious oral health issues, and can even cause health issues that may impact their heart, kidneys, and liver. Proper maintenance is crucial to ensure your pet’s overall health and longevity.
