Dental disease is one of the most common health problems in pets. According to the American Veterinary Dental Society, by the age of three, most dogs and cats have some evidence of dental disease. Dental disease can lead to pain, infection, tooth loss, and even systemic health problems such as heart disease and kidney disease.

At SportsVet Animal Medical Center, we offer a wide range of veterinary dentistry services to help keep your pet's teeth and gums healthy, including:

1. Dental Exams: We recommend annual dental exams for all pets. During a dental exam, our veterinarians will check your pet's teeth, gums, and oral cavity for any signs of dental disease.

2. Dental Cleanings: Dental cleanings are an important part of preventive care for pets. During a dental cleaning, our veterinarians will remove plaque and tartar from your pet's teeth using specialized tools. We will also polish your pet's teeth to help prevent future buildup of plaque and tartar.

3. Dental X-Rays: Dental X-rays allow us to evaluate the health of your pet's teeth and roots below the gum line. X-rays can help us detect problems such as tooth decay, abscesses, and bone loss.

4. Extractions: In some cases, a damaged or infected tooth may need to be extracted. Our veterinarians are skilled in performing extractions and will do everything possible to make the procedure as comfortable and stress-free as possible for your pet.

At SportsVet Animal Medical Center, we believe that prevention is key when it comes to dental health. We offer a variety of products and services to help keep your pet's teeth healthy between dental visits, including dental chews and the Virbac C.E.T. Enzymatic Dog & Cat Toothpaste and Toothbrush.

If you have any questions about our veterinary dentistry services or would like to schedule a dental exam for your pet, please don't hesitate to contact us. We look forward to helping your pet achieve optimal dental health and wellness
