The Unseen Pain of Dental Problems

If you notice these things in your pet, it could mean their teeth aren’t doing well: their breath smells bad, they have a lot of stuff on their teeth, they drool a lot, their gums bleed or hurt when they eat or chew, or they don’t want to eat much. These might seem like small things, but they can show that your pet has dental problems that make them uncomfortable.

That’s where pet dentistry services come in to help. These services include things like cleaning your pet’s teeth and fixing any dental issues they have. The goal is to make your pet feel better and keep their teeth healthy. It’s important to look out for these signs and take care of your pet’s dental health so they can be happy and healthy.

Why Choose The Collegeway Animal Hospital for Pet Dentistry?

We believe in prevention and early intervention. That’s why every examination at our hospital includes a meticulous oral examination to assess your pet’s teeth and gums for signs of dental disease. But we go further. We offer a comprehensive range of pet dentistry services to address your furbaby’s oral health:

Anesthetic Dental Cleanings: Our experienced team is equipped to perform thorough anesthetic dental cleanings. This process ensures that we can access all areas of your pet’s mouth to remove tartar, plaque, and bacteria, leaving your pet’s teeth clean and their gums healthy.

Digital Dental X-Rays: We use state-of-the-art digital dental X-rays to assess for hidden tooth root disease. This technology allows us to uncover issues that might be invisible during a routine oral examination, enabling us to provide the most accurate and effective treatment.

Comprehensive Tooth Evaluation: We meticulously chart all teeth, evaluating for any periodontal pockets, increased mobility, and gum recession. This level of detail is essential for identifying and addressing dental problems before they escalate.

Ultrasonic Scaling and Polishing: Our licensed technicians employ a state-of-the-art dental unit to perform ultrasonic scaling and polishing of your pet’s teeth. This process ensures your pet’s teeth are not only clean but also free from rough surfaces that can attract bacteria.
