Because pets often show no obvious signs of oral discomfort, we highly recommend regular dentistry examinations, where one of our veterinarian experts can spot the following common problems before they deteriorate further:
Baby teeth that have not properly fallen out
Pet dogs and cats are at risk for painful malocclusion (crooked teeth), excessive tooth crowding, and increased plaque and calculus buildup if baby teeth that haven't fallen out aren't pulled (tartar). Baby teeth must be extracted since they are weaker and more likely to shatter.
Plaque and tartar build-up
Early tartar treatment can stop gum disease and the need for tooth extractions. Regular dog teeth cleaning can significantly contribute to keeping your loved one in good health.
Puppies and kittens may have a cleft palate before birth or may get one after trauma. Early detection allows us to act and surgically seal the mouth's roof.
Severe periodontal disease
By having these teeth removed, we can stop the jawbone from deteriorating, which, if left untreated and severe, can result in pathologic jaw fracture.
When your pet’s tooth is discovered to be discolored, a root canal can be done to save the tooth before it becomes infected.
Broken or shattered teeth hurt. They might also result in tooth-root abscesses or infections. Infections in the teeth can cause excruciating face swelling. Early detection of a damaged tooth may allow for root canal therapy to salvage the tooth rather than extraction.
