Feline and Canine Pet Dental Health Services
Pet Dental Care
At Happy Paws & Claws, we understand the importance of comprehensive oral health care for your pet. Just like regular checkups are essential for monitoring your pet’s overall wellness, annual dental evaluations are crucial in preventing and treating dental disease.
What to Expect During a Dental Cleaning
To ensure a thorough and safe cleaning for your cat or dog, all dental procedures are performed under general anesthesia. This allows for a complete examination and treatment of all dental surfaces, including those below the gum line.
Our dental cleaning service includes:
- Digital Dental X-rays: These x-rays provide a detailed view of the tooth roots and jawbone, allowing us to detect hidden abnormalities and ensure the best course of treatment.
- Ultrasonic and Hand Scaling: This technology effectively removes built-up plaque and tartar from the surface of the teeth, both above and below the gum line.
- Polishing: Polishing the teeth smooths the enamel surface, making it more difficult for plaque and tartar to adhere in the future.
- Extractions (when necessary): Severely damaged or diseased teeth may require extraction to prevent further complications and discomfort for your pet.
