What’s Included in Our Pet Dental Care Services?

Professional Teeth Cleaning

Prevent gum disease and freshen your pet’s breath with a thorough cleaning. Our team provides scaling, polishing, and fluoride treatments to remove plaque and tartar buildup, promoting long-term oral health.

Dental Radiography

Some dental problems aren’t visible on the surface. We use dental X-rays to examine below the gum line, ensuring that any hidden issues are identified and treated early.
