Dental care

Preventative Dentistry

Preventative dentistry is a vital component of your pet’s overall healthcare plan. Appropriate periodic assessment of your pet’s oral health, combined with dental scaling, subgingival curettage, and polishing can help prevent the kind of dental disease that leads to tooth loss, unnecessary oral pain, and increased risk of other illnesses.

Just as we have come to expect of our dentists when we visit them, each of our patients receives a full oral examination and dental x-rays during the dental care procedure.

Therapeutic Dentistry

When dental health becomes compromised, pets develop gingivitis and periodontal disease. These conditions can lead to bad breath, oral pain, tooth loss, and weakening of the jawbones. In addition, they may make pets more susceptible to kidney infections and other illnesses. Parkway Animal Clinic is equipped to treat most dental conditions. When advanced dental therapy is indicated and desired, we will refer your pet to a board-certified veterinary dentist.
