Dental Care
Dental care is an important aspect of your pet’s overall health and well-being. Poor dental hygiene can lead to a range of health problems, including gum disease, tooth decay, and even systemic infections that can affect the heart, kidneys, and other organs.
Dental care services Intervet offer includes:
- Dental exams: During a dental exam, our veterinarian will examine your pet's teeth, gums, and mouth to check for signs of dental disease, such as plaque buildup, tartar, or gum inflammation.
- Dental cleanings: If your pet has significant plaque buildup or other signs of dental disease, our veterinarian may recommend a dental cleaning. This procedure involves the removal of tartar and plaque from the teeth using specialized dental tools, followed by polishing to smooth the teeth and discourage future plaque buildup.
- Extractions: If a tooth is severely decayed or damaged, it may need to be extracted to prevent infection and further damage.
Regular dental care is essential to keep your pet’s teeth and gums healthy and prevent serious health problems. If you have any questions about dental care or would like to schedule a dental exam for your pet you may contact us.
