Complete Dental Care for Your Pet

Just like us, our pet's dental health impacts their overall well-being. Poor dental hygiene can lead to issues not only in the mouth, but also with other body systems. This is why we consider dental health a key part of your pet’s overall wellness. At Pet Dominion, our veterinarians believe in providing thorough dental care to help our patients live longer, healthier lives.

During annual wellness exams, we thoroughly check your pet’s mouth, looking for signs of potential dental issues like bad breath, discomfort while eating, or decreased chewing.

Why Is Dental Care So Important?

Regular cleanings help to prevent painful dental diseases and save you money in the long run by avoiding costly treatments for advanced issues.

Signs of Dental Problems

In addition to bad breath and loss of interest in food or chewing, be on the lookout for these additional signs of dental issues:

  • Red or swollen gums
  • Excessive drooling
  • Difficulty or pain while eating
  • Loose or missing teeth

What to Expect During a Dental Cleaning

At Pet Dominion, we take extra care during cleanings to ensure your pet's safety and comfort. One of our veterinarians will begin the process with a thorough exam, followed by general anesthesia to keep your pet safe and relaxed. Dental cleaning appointments include:

  • A complete mouth-cleaning
  • Scaling away tartar and plaque
  • Polishing
  • Full mouth radiographs are taken to identify any underlying dental issues

Our highly skilled team will provide detailed post-care instructions to help support your pet’s oral health.

Annual cleanings are typically recommended for most pets, but our care plans are tailored to meet each patient's unique needs.

At-Home Preventive Measures for Oral Care

Consider us your partner in neutralizing bad breath. We’ll take care of the exams and cleaning, and you keep your pet's teeth healthy by brushing regularly with pet-safe toothpaste. Dental chews and water additives can also be used to help reduce plaque buildup.
