Welcome to FurWell Veterinary Hospital, where our veterinary team provides professional dental cleanings to protect your pet from gingivitis, periodontal disease, and the serious health problems associated with poor oral health.
Dental disease is one of the most common health problems affecting dogs and cats, with most pets showing signs of gum disease by age three. Gingivitis, the early stage of periodontal disease, is caused by plaque and tartar buildup along the gum line. Left untreated, it progresses to deeper infection that can damage teeth, bone, and even affect the heart, kidneys, and liver. Professional dental cleanings under anesthesia allow our team to thoroughly clean above and below the gum line, remove tartar buildup, assess tooth and gum health, and take dental radiographs to detect hidden problems. At FurWell Veterinary Hospital, dental care is a cornerstone of whole-body wellness for your pet.
Before your pet’s dental cleaning, our veterinary team performs a thorough physical exam and blood work to ensure they are healthy enough for anesthesia. We review the results with you and answer any questions about the procedure.
Your pet is placed under general anesthesia to allow safe, thorough cleaning of all teeth, including areas below the gum line. Our team scales away plaque and tartar, polishes tooth surfaces, and inspects each tooth and the surrounding gum tissue for abnormalities.
Dental X-rays are taken to evaluate tooth roots and bone that are hidden beneath the gum line. If any teeth require extraction or other treatment, we discuss options with you and proceed with your consent.
Professional cleanings remove the plaque and tartar that cause gingivitis and periodontal disease, preventing tooth pain, infection, and tooth loss.
Oral bacteria from untreated dental disease can enter the bloodstream and damage the heart, kidneys, and liver. Regular dental care helps protect your pet’s entire body, not just their mouth.
Pets with healthy mouths eat better, play more comfortably, and show fewer signs of pain or discomfort. A clean, healthy mouth is a key part of a happy, comfortable life for your pet.
Professional dental cleanings remove plaque, tartar, and bacteria that cause gingivitis and periodontal disease. They are performed under anesthesia to allow safe cleaning above and below the gum line. To schedule, call (864) 292-6433.
Most dogs and cats benefit from at least one professional dental cleaning per year. Pets with a history of dental disease or those prone to tartar buildup may need more frequent cleanings. Our veterinary team will recommend a schedule based on your pet’s needs.
Your pet will need to fast before their dental cleaning. Our team will provide specific preparation instructions, including fasting guidelines and any pre-dental bloodwork requirements, when you schedule.
Dental cleaning at FurWell Veterinary Hospital involves pre-anesthetic blood work, general anesthesia, professional cleaning above and below the gum line, dental X-rays, and post-procedure recovery monitoring. Pricing depends on your pet’s specific needs. For an estimate, call (864) 292-6433.
