Pet Dental Care in Burlington, North Carolina

Pet dental care is similar in nature to what you would have done at your next dental checkup. We take x-rays to look at their teeth, perform cleanings, even work with cavities and extractions when necessary. We also are happy to take the time to work with pet parents and show them how to use dental treatments like specialized toothbrushes for oral care homework. Working together, we can ensure that your dog or cat has a set of teeth that will be useful for them and not painful.

Many people don’t realize that pet dental care is closely related to the overall health of their pet. The amount of plaque and bacteria in the mouth can negatively impact the health of your pet, especially when their oral health is poor. We want to make sure that your pet is well-cared for in every aspect, including in their mouth. Please come and talk with us today if you would like to learn more or make an appointment for pet dental care.

FAQs About Pet Dental Care

Good dental health is essential for your pet’s overall wellbeing, which is why our comprehensive pet dental care services are here to support your pet’s needs. From routine cleanings and dental exams to X-rays and extractions when needed, we protect your furry friend’s teeth and gums while reducing the risk of more serious health issues. Read through our frequently asked questions to learn more about how we help.

Why is dental care important for my pet?
Dental care provides so much more than fresh breath. It helps to prevent painful oral diseases and other serious health issues. Regular dental exams and cleanings address plaque and tartar buildup, reducing the risk of gum inflammation or bacterial infections, and supporting your pet’s quality of life.
What do your pet dental services include?
We provide a thorough oral exam to assess your pet’s teeth and gums. We also offer professional cleanings, take X-rays, and provide treatments as necessary. During your visit, we’ll discuss at-home care strategies to help maintain optimal oral health.
How often should my pet have a dental exam?
We recommend aiming for a dental exam at least once per year, ideally during their annual wellness check. Some pets, particularly seniors or those with existing dental issues, may benefit from more frequent visits. Regular exams help us to catch problems early before they impact your pet’s quality of life.
What are common signs of dental problems in pets?
Keep an eye out for symptoms such as persistent bad breath, yellow or brown tartar buildup, red or swollen gums, or difficulty eating. Many pets hide discomfort, so even subtle changes in behavior related to eating or play can signal a dental concern.
