Dental exam for a happy dog

Dental Care Services

Professional veterinary dental care to maintain your pet's oral health and overall wellbeing throughout their life.

Although many people frequently disregard it until issues get serious, dental health is an essential part of your pet's general well-being. Preventive dental care is crucial for preserving your pet's quality of life and avoiding major health issues that may result from dental disease, according to us at MyPets Veterinary Urgent Care & Wellness.

One of the most common preventive health problems in veterinary practice is dental disease, affecting more than 80% of dogs and cats by the time they reach three years old. Dental issues can cause pain, tooth loss, and severe systemic infections that can harm the kidneys, liver, and heart if left untreated. Our all-inclusive dental care programme prevents these problems and maintains your pet's oral health throughout their life.

To ensure safe and efficient dental procedures, our cutting-edge dental suite is equipped with state-of-the-art ultrasonic scaling equipment, digital radiography, and advanced monitoring systems. All of our dental cleanings are performed under general anaesthesia, which ensures your pet's comfort throughout the procedure and allows us to thoroughly clean below the gum line, where most dental disease occurs.

In addition to professional cleanings, we stress the value of at-home dental care and offer thorough instruction on how to keep your pet's teeth clean in between appointments. We'll assist you in creating a home care regimen that promotes your pet's dental health, from dental diets and treats to brushing methods and oral rinses.

Both standard dental care and sophisticated oral surgery techniques are taught to our skilled staff. We offer compassionate, professional care with an emphasis on pain management and quick recovery, whether your pet needs a routine cleaning, tooth extraction, or treatment for oral tumors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about veterinary dental care

How often does my pet need dental cleanings?

Most pets benefit from professional dental cleanings every 1-3 years, depending on their age, breed, diet, and home care routine. Smaller breeds and senior pets often need more frequent cleanings. We'll assess your pet's individual needs and recommend an appropriate schedule during their wellness exams.

Why does my pet need anesthesia for dental cleaning?

Anesthesia is essential for thorough dental cleaning because it allows us to clean below the gum line where most dental disease occurs, take dental X-rays, and perform any necessary extractions safely. It also eliminates stress and discomfort for your pet during the procedure.

What are signs that my pet needs dental care?

Warning signs include bad breath, yellow or brown tartar buildup, red or swollen gums, difficulty eating, pawing at the face, loose or missing teeth, and excessive drooling. However, many pets hide dental pain well, so regular dental exams are important even if no symptoms are visible.

How can I care for my pet's teeth at home?

Daily tooth brushing with pet-safe toothpaste is the gold standard for home dental care. Dental chews, special diets, and water additives can also help. We'll teach you proper brushing techniques and recommend products that are safe and effective for your pet.

Is dental care safe for senior pets?

With proper pre-anesthetic evaluation and monitoring, dental procedures can be safely performed on senior pets. In fact, dental disease often causes more health risks than the anesthesia itself. We perform thorough health assessments and use modern anesthetic protocols to minimize risks.
