Pet Dental Services
At Downtown Animal Hospital, we are devoted to keeping your pet’s teeth, mouth and gums as healthy as possible. Doing so can help prevent the development conditions that can cause not only discomfort, but also substantial amounts of pain and other health conditions for your pet. No matter their age, size or breed – all pets can benefit from a dental health plan tailored specifically for their unique needs and lifestyle.
What types of dental care do you offer for dogs/cats/pets?
We offer dental services ranging from dental x-rays, ultrasonic scaling and polishing to oral surgeries and extractions. We will also offer advice on how to maintain your pets’ dental health at home. Individualized care plans for cats and dogs are available for tartar removal, red gums, broken teeth, bad breath and sore gums. Please feel free to call us at 613.634.2440 and we would be happy to talk in more detail about our services.
How often should dogs/cats/pets get a dental exam?
Generally speaking, pets should go through a full dental exam at least once per year. At home, the best-case scenario is that your pet’s teeth are brushed once per day. Dental health has long been an overlooked part of the care many people provide their cats and dogs. Dental disease is a very common and very significant problem in our companion animal population. Poor dental health can contribute to other seemingly unrelated health problems, can be extremely painful and is often preventable.
