We want your pet to live a long and happy life. Dental Care is important for the overall health of your pet. Dental tartar and gingivitis can progress to infected teeth that can cause pain and need to be extracted. Infection in your pet’s mouth can spread through the blood stream to other parts of the body such as the kidneys or heart. We recommend comprehensive dental examination and cleaning to keep your pets mouth healthy and happy. We offer a range of products to slow tartar accumulation (tooth brushes, tooth pastes, diets, chews, water additives). We are well equipped to handle your pet’s dental cleaning and oral surgery if needed. We can perform dental x-rays and extractions, if necessary, with the same instruments your own dentist uses. We want your pet to have a comfortable dental experience and use nerve blocks (freezing), antibiotics, and pain medications when appropriate for all dental surgery.
In the month of February we celebrate Dental Health Month, during which we offer a complimentary dental examination and a discount on dental cleanings. If your pet requires professional dental care, we will provide you with a free estimate.
