Pet Dental Care

Just as it’s important for you to see a dentist regularly, it’s important for pets as well. Their oral health is directly connected to their overall health.

From routine teeth cleaning to complex dental surgeries, our experienced team is equipped to handle all of your pet’s dental needs.

Poor dental health can lead to pain, infection, and other problems. At Town and Country Animal Hospital, we offer comprehensive dental care for pets of all ages. We recommend that all pets have a yearly dental exam so that we can catch any problems early. We also offer teeth cleaning, x-rays, and other services as needed.

We understand that dental care can be a daunting task, but we’re here to help. Our knowledgeable staff will take the time to answer all of your questions and help you choose the best course of treatment for your pet. We’re committed to providing outstanding care for all of our patients, and we’ll work with you to ensure that your pet receives the best possible care.

Dentals

We use the term “dental” to refer to the procedure performed under general anesthesia that consists of full mouth dental radiographs, an ultrasonic scaling to remove all tartar above and below the gum line, a high-speed polishing to provide a smooth enamel surface, and fluoride treatment to help strengthen the teeth. During this procedure that doctor will also examine each tooth, noting in the medical record any abnormalities such as fractured, worn, missing, discolored or loose teeth and any gum irregularities that may be present. Often it is impossible to tell if extractions will be needed until your pet is anesthetized because we are unable to examine all surfaces of all teeth.

We perform dentals Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, and typically schedule them about one week in advance.
