Professional dental cleanings for pets are more complex procedures than it is for their owners.
We perform professional dental cleanings under general anesthesia. We understand anesthesia can be scary for some pet parents, which is why we always perform a physical exam prior to surgery. With proper pre-anesthetic protocols, anesthesia can be very safe. Every patient that goes under general anesthesia has a pre-operative blood panel performed based on age. While under anesthesia vital signs monitored consistantly to make sure your pet is safe.
While under anesthesia your pet will be monitored by a dental technician. A thorough oral exam is performed, including coding each tooth and full mouth xrays. We perform xrays to make sure every tooth is healthy under the gumline. After the teeth are coded and xrayed, the cleaning begins. Every tooth is scaled and polished. If the doctor discovers any additional treatments that need to be done, they will move forward based on your wishes.
After the cleaning is complete, your animal will move to a recovery kennel with comfortable bedding. The dental technician will complete a go home packet for you to know exactly what the state of your pets teeth are. You will also recieve before & after photos of your pets mouth, a sample pack of toothpaste, and a toothbrush. Home care is a very important part of professional dental cleanings.
