Cleaning Your Pet's Teeth

Even among responsible pet parents who strive to do everything they can to ensure their pets’ health, pet dental care is often overlooked. While pet owners are well aware of how important dentistry is for themselves and the other human members of their families, many people remain skeptical about the importance of cleaning their furry family member’s teeth. Many also do not grasp just how much of an impact poor dental hygiene can have on a dog or cat’s overall health.

Pet Oral Health Facts

If you are still on the fence about the importance of pet dentistry, consider these facts from the American Society of Veterinary Technicians:

70% of pets over the age of 3 suffer from dental disease.

85% of pets over the age of 5 suffer from periodontal disease.

Bacteria from the mouth can make its way into the bloodstream and cause heart, kidney, and liver disease.

Dental disease is the leading cause of premature death in pets.

At ABC Veterinary Clinic of Lewisville, we offer professional pet dentistry to help your beloved companion avoid these problems.

Comprehensive Pet Dental Care

Our veterinarians at ABC Veterinary Clinic of Lewisville typically recommend bringing your furry friend to us annually for pet dental care. However, depending on the condition of your pet’s teeth and their overall oral health, we may suggest scheduling pet dentistry exams twice per year. This proactive approach allows us to catch and address potential dental issues before they develop into serious concerns.

When your companion comes to us for a pet dental cleaning, our first step is to conduct a thorough physical examination, assessing their overall health and suitability for anesthesia. Pre-anesthetic blood testing is also performed to ensure your pet is healthy enough to undergo the procedure safely. This careful screening process is part of our commitment to your pet’s safety.

Once under anesthesia, your pet will receive a complete oral examination. We utilize advanced digital pet dental X-ray technology to identify any hidden issues beneath the gum line, such as tooth root abscesses or jawbone abnormalities that are not visible to the naked eye. Following the examination, we proceed with cleaning and polishing your pet’s teeth to remove tartar and plaque buildup. A fluoride rinse is applied to strengthen tooth enamel and help prevent future decay. In cases where teeth are found to be irreversibly damaged or diseased, we may perform tooth extractions to restore your pet’s oral health. 

After the pet dental procedure, our team closely monitors your cat or dog as they wake from anesthesia. Before your companion heads home, we provide comprehensive aftercare instructions, including at-home dental care recommendations.
