Comprehensive Veterinary Dental Care
Dental disease is the most common disease of both dogs and cats. Over 50% of cats and 85% of dogs over the age of three require professional dental treatment.
When left untreated, dental issues can lead to complications that may require further veterinary care. Our dental specialists offer the services needed to prevent and treat a number of dental concerns.
Our veterinary dental team has extensive experience which helps them to address and manage your companion's oral health. From dental evaluations to specialized services such as restorative care and endodontics, your pet is in good hands.
We believe in communication and patient education and will keep you informed throughout your dog or cat's dental treatment, discussing our findings and any recommendations we have with you.
