February is National Pet Dental Health Month!

Our receptionists are waiting to schedule your pet a Dental cleaning now! We are also offering a complimentary Dental Exam with one of our technicians ahead of time to evaluate the oral health of your pet. Bad breath isn’t the only reason to schedule a dental for your pet.  Studies show that the condition of your pet’s mouth could have an impact on their overall health.  The bacteria associated with dental disease can have an adverse affect on the heart, liver, and kidneys.  A physical exam and blood work will be performed before starting the dental procedure. This is important to evaluate your pet's general health. After the physical exam, your pet will be anesthetized for a safe and painless cleaning.

During the cleaning, tartar is removed from your pet's teeth using a hand scaler. A periodontal probe is used to check for pockets under the gumline where plaque and tartar often build up. Next, an ultrasonic scaler is used to clean above and below the gumline. A curette is used to clean and smooth the teeth under the gumline. Your pet's teeth are then polished, creating a smooth surface. Finally, an antibacterial solution is used to wash your pet's teeth and gums. This helps delay tartar build-up. We also use digital dental radiology to better evaluate your pet’s teeth inside and out.  This diagnostic tool allows us to determine if a tooth can be saved by periodontal therapy or if extraction would be appropriate. 

We look forward to seeing you and your pets for their dental cleaning soon.
