Dentistry For Animals

While primarily specialized in dentistry, we provide an oral evaluation as part of a thorough examination to assess overall oral health before planning treatments. This includes a detailed look at teeth, gums, and supporting structures to determine the best course of care under anesthesia. If further generalized health concerns are identified, we coordinate with your primary vet for full-body exams, including a Comprehensive Physical Exam

In addition to traditional radiographs, we now incorporate 3D imaging via Cone Beam CT (a form of advanced radiography) to diagnose complex dental and oral structures with precision.

We utilize full-mouth dental radiographs to visualize hidden issues beneath the gumline, such as fractures, abscesses, or tooth root pathology. Our approach increases detection by 30–40% compared to visual exams alone, ensuring thorough care.

Whether for fractured, diseased, or severely decayed teeth, we perform tooth extractions using techniques tailored to each case, including surgical options for complex cases.

Our clinic specializes in oral surgery, including complex extractions, oronasal fistula repair, mass biopsies, maxillectomy, mandibulectomy, and maxillofacial fracture repair. We employ advanced techniques to ensure the safest outcomes for surgical procedures.

From routine cleanings to advanced periodontal therapy, we treat gum disease through professional prophylaxis and procedures like gingival flaps, open root planing, or bone grafts. Our dental laser further aids in treating periodontal pockets and oral pathologies.

We emphasize at-home dental care education, offering demonstrations (like our toothbrushing video) and recommending VOHC-approved products to help pet owners maintain their companion’s oral health between professional cleanings.

For complex cases requiring recovery, we provide hospitalization & 24-hour monitoring to closely monitor patients post-surgery or anesthesia.

Supportive oxygen therapy is available when needed to aid recovery, especially in patients with respiratory compromise or those undergoing anesthesia for oral procedures.

We implement pain management protocols pre-, intra-, and post-procedure to ensure pets experience minimal discomfort, especially after oral surgeries or extractions.
