Pet Dentistry
Animal Medical Care Center and Cat Hospital offers a wide range of comprehensive dental procedures to address various dental issues and promote your pet’s oral health.
Comprehensive Dental Procedures
Animal Medical Care Center and Cat Hospital treats your pet’s teeth and mouth as part of their overall well-being with comprehensive dental care to prevent and address their oral health. Our experienced veterinary team is dedicated to providing gentle and effective dental care to keep your pet’s teeth and gums healthy and pain-free.
Dental Examination
Every dental procedure begins with a thorough dental examination. Our veterinarians carefully assess your pet’s teeth, gums, and oral cavity for signs of dental disease, such as tartar buildup, gingivitis, periodontal disease, and oral tumors. We also perform dental radiographs (X-rays) to evaluate the health of the tooth roots and surrounding bone.
Dental Cleaning (Prophylaxis)
Routine dental cleanings are essential for maintaining your pet’s oral health. During a dental cleaning, our veterinary technicians or assistants use specialized instruments to remove plaque and tartar buildup from your pet’s teeth, both above and below the gum line. This process helps prevent dental disease and promotes healthier gums and fresher breath.
Periodontal Therapy
If your pet is diagnosed with periodontal disease, our veterinarians may recommend periodontal therapy to address the infection and inflammation of the gums and surrounding tissues. This may involve scaling (removing plaque and tartar), root planing (smoothing the tooth roots), and applying antimicrobial agents to promote healing and reduce bacterial growth.
Tooth Extractions
In cases of severe dental disease, trauma, or malformation, tooth extractions may be necessary to alleviate pain and prevent further complications. Our veterinarians are skilled in performing dental extractions using advanced techniques and equipment, ensuring minimal discomfort and optimal healing for your pet.
