Pet Dental Cleanings - What to Expect?
We often recommend blood tests be done before dental care is started to help uncover any underlying illnesses. This gives us assurance that anesthetizing your pet is safe. We will also examine the animal’s entire mouth, including lips, tongue, gums and teeth before beginning.
While under general anesthesia, your dog or cat can receive a thorough dental cleaning. We use a safe, local anesthesia and monitor your pet’s heart rate, oxygen and respiration.
