Our animal patients get tremendous benefits from routine dental cleanings and treatments. When the gums become inflamed due to the presence of plaque, tartar, and bacteria, the infection can spread to other parts of the body causing serious health problems such as heart and kidney disease.
Dental cleanings must be performed under general anesthesia to provide a safe and quality cleaning. A dental cleaning includes, IV fluids, extensive anesthetic monitoring, both, hand and ultrasonic scaling, polishing, and antiseptic rinse.
