Pet Dental Care in Wayne, NJ
Wayne’s Leading Pet Dental Care Providers
Dental care is an important part of caring for your pet. Just like humans, dogs and cats can have teeth and mouth problems if professional dental care is not a part of their regular routine. Aside from bad breath, poor dental health can result in oral infections, tooth loss and damage to your pet’s heart and kidneys. Periodontal disease also results in pain and discomfort for your pet, which can all be avoided with appropriate dental care.
Professional Pet Dental Care in Wayne
Prophylactic dental treatments at Tri-County Animal Hospital along with at-home brushing can prevent your pet from experiencing the major health effects of advanced periodontal disease. Our prophylactic dental care includes complete ultrasonic scaling, root planing and polishing. We place your pet under anesthesia and perform a comprehensive oral examination and examine individual teeth for mobility, fractures, malocclusion and periodontal disease. We remove plaque and tartar using hand instruments and power scaling equipment, and finally give your pet’s teeth a thorough ultrasonic cleaning and polishing.
During examination, it is possible a condition requiring an advanced dental procedure may be identified. The findings will be discussed with you while your pet is still under anesthesia so that you can make the best treatment decision.
