Good dental care can help your pet avoid periodontal disease and the possibility of more serious conditions of the liver, kidneys and heart. We offer the latest products and advice to help you care for your pet’s dental hygiene.  

We will perform thorough oral exams during your pet’s check-up and recommend dental services as needed.   Any presence of tartar means that there is bacteria adhered to the tooth surface.  Bacteria will irritate and inflame the gums causing gingivitis.  When the gums become inflamed they no longer provide a barrier from bacteria, and bacteria can then enter the bloodstream.  Numerous studies have been done to prove that long term exposure to bacteria in the bloodstream can shorten the life span of vital organs such as the kidneys, liver and heart.

Prevention is always best, but when problems already exist, we have all of the dental equipment necessary to address infected or fractured teeth. Additionally, our facility has a digital dental radiology unit. This permits us to examine the parts of the teeth that cannot be seen, and will even allow us to instantly send images to specialists when required.

Along with professional dental cleaning, we offer counseling on home dental care. The more that you can do at home, the less we will have to treat here. Your pet will thank you for it.
