Comprehensive Pet Dental Care
Routine pet dental care is an important aspect of your cat's and dogs' oral and overall health. However, most pets actually don't receive the oral hygiene care they need to keep their teeth and gums healthy throughout their life.
At our Morton veterinary hospital, we provide complete dental care for your pet, from basics such as dental exams, teeth cleanings and polishing, to dental x-rays and surgeries.
We also make a point of providing dental health education to pet owners about at-home dental care for their pets.
Pet Dental Surgery in Morton
We know that discovering that your pet requires dental surgery can be an overwhelming experience. We strive to make sure this process is as stress-free as possible both for you and your pet.
We'll do everything we can to ensure your pet's experience with us is comfortable and easy. We'll break down each step of the process to you in detail before the procedure, including preparation and post-operative care requirements.
We offer dental procedures for dogs and cats including tooth extractions, jaw fracture repair surgeries and gum disease treatments.
Cat & Dog Teeth Cleaning & Exams
Just like your annual checkup at the dentist, your cat or dog should come in for an oral examination at least once each year.
Pets who are more prone to dental health problems may need to visit us more often than that, though.
Stoney Creek Veterinary Hospital can assess, diagnose and treat dental health problems in cats and dogs.
FAQs About Pet Dental Care
Here are some of the most frequently asked questions from our patients about pet dental care.
Veterinary Dentistry: Anesthesia & Your Pet's Oral Health
Cats and dogs do not understand what is going on during dental procedures, and will often react to dental procedures by struggling or biting.
Similar to anesthesia that is provided to nervous or anxious patients by dentists, our Morton veterinary hospital is able to give your dog or cat dental anesthesia before performing any dental procedures. This places less stress on your pets and allows us to X-ray their mouth as required.
