Dental Cleaning
Routine dental cleanings are a fundamental aspect of pet healthcare.

This proactive approach not only maintains your pet's oral hygiene but also contributes to their overall health, as dental issues can impact vital organs.
Dental Radiology
Our state-of-the-art dental radiology services enable us to assess your pet's oral health beneath the surface. X-rays help identify hidden dental problems such as abscesses, fractures, or tooth root issues. This advanced diagnostic tool allows for a more accurate and comprehensive evaluation, guiding us in providing targeted and effective treatments.
Dental Procedures
In some cases, dental procedures may be necessary to address specific oral health issues. Whether it's tooth extractions or other dental surgeries, our skilled veterinarians can perform many of these procedures with precision and care. If your pet requires advanced procedures best performed by a veterinary dental specialist, Board Certified Veterinary Dentist, we can assist in setting up a referral. Rest assured that your pet's safety and comfort are our top priorities during any dental intervention.
