Comprehensive Pet Dentistry

An essential component of your dog or cat’s wellness is a tailored and well thought-out plan to maintain his or her dental and oral health. Our veterinarians will perform tooth and mouth assessments at each check-up and work with you to establish a teeth-cleaning schedule customized to suit your pet’s needs.

Dental and Oral Assessments

At every wellness visit, our veterinarians will perform a visual examination to review the condition of your pet’s teeth and gums. For a more comprehensive evaluation, we utilize digital dental radiography. We recommend periodic digital dental x-rays to better understand the health of your pet’s teeth and detect other conditions that visual exams could miss.

Cleanings

The frequency and methods used for teeth cleaning depend upon the size and age of your pet. For example, small dog breeds need their teeth cleaned more often than large dog breeds. At Arlington Animal Hospital, we’ll work with you to arrange a convenient, yet effective teeth-cleaning schedule that has been suited uniquely to your pet. We also will provide guidance on the most effective tools to maintain your pet’s oral health at home.

Surgery

We utilize the most advanced technology to perform all surgeries, including tooth extractions, on site. Our team of experts will closely monitor your pet and ensure his or her comfort and safety throughout the procedure.
