Our Veterinary Service
Pet Comprehensive Oral Health Assessment and Treatment with Digital Radiography
Although we make every effort to preserve your pet’s natural teeth, in severe cases of periodontal disease, tooth resorption, or fracture, it is advisable to extract the affected tooth.
Pet Comprehensive Oral Health Assessment and Treatment with Digital Radiography
A comprehensive oral examination, full-mouth X-rays, periodontal charting, ultrasonic scaling and polishing, and, if required, surgical extractions of diseased teeth are all included in your pet’s dental operation, also known as COHAT. We work very hard to keep your pet’s natural teeth, but in cases of severe periodontal disease, tooth resorption, or fracture, extraction of the afflicted tooth is the best course of action.
Your pet may exhibit some of the following clinical signs of periodontal disease: pawing at the mouth or rubbing its face, facial swelling, dropping food, bad breath, sneezing, loss of appetite or weight, chattering of the lower jaw, excessive drooling, vomiting, resenting touch or head manipulation, oral bleeding, or poor grooming (dull and matted coat in cats).
While we conduct standard COHAT operations and teeth extractions, if your pet requires more complex dental care than we can provide, we can refer them to boarded dental professionals.
