Does your furry family have bad breath? Despite what many pet owners may believe, this is not just a nuisance, it’s a sign of an unhealthy mouth. Regular dental cleanings are important in maintaining not only your pet’s teeth and gums, but his or her overall health as well. During your pet’s dental cleaning procedure, we perform a comprehensive oral exam including dental charting and dental probing, followed by ultrasonic scaling and polishing using our Midmark dental unit. Scaling your pet’s teeth allows plaque buildup to be removed both above and below the gum line. Polishing is important as it creates a smooth tooth surface that is more resistant to future plaque buildup.

We want your pet to live a long, healthy life, and we understand that maintaining a healthy mouth is part of that. Call today to discuss your pet’s dental care needs and how we can help!
