Pet Dentistry in Vista, CA
Regular professional dental cleaning is essential to maintain your pet’s teeth. Our dental services include teeth cleaning and polishing, tooth extractions (if needed), fluoride treatments to help strengthen enamel and reduce tooth sensitivity, and dental X-rays.
Most Pet dental disease occurs below the gum line, where you can’t see it. Your Pet’s teeth and gums should be checked at least once a year by your veterinarian.
SCHEDULE A DENTAL EXAM
if you observe any problems with your pet’s mouth, such as broken teeth, pain, or difficulty eating.
DENTAL CLEANING
Every cleaning consists of ultra-sonic scaling to remove plaque and tartar buildup, a fluoride treatment and tooth polishing (much like the processes used on humans).
ANESTHESIA
Is vital in making it possible to perform dental procedures with less stress, pain, and risk of injury for your pet. It also lets your veterinarian do a complete oral exam below the gum line, where most oral disease occurs to check for oral masses or disease that would otherwise be invisible to their owners..
REGULARLY BRUSHING
Regular brushing with an enzymatic toothpaste is the most effective way to keep your pet’s teeth healthy between dental cleanings. It may reduce the frequency or even eliminate the need for periodic dental cleaning by your veterinarian.
TALK WITH YOUR VETERINARIAN
about any dental products, treats, or dental-specific diets you’re considering for your pet, or ask your veterinarian for their recommendation.
