Brighter Smiles, Healthier Pets in Cartersville, GA
Dental health is more than just a bright smile—it’s an essential part of your pet’s overall well-being.
At Westside Animal Hospital, we provide exceptional dental care to keep your pet’s teeth and gums healthy and support overall well-being.
Why Dental Health Matters
Proper dental care can prevent serious health issues. Untreated dental disease may lead to more serious health concerns:
- Bone Loss: Weakening the jaw and surrounding structures.
- Tooth Loss: Causing discomfort and difficulty eating.
- Systemic Issues: Resulting in infections that can affect the heart, liver, or kidneys.
Comprehensive Dental Care
Routine dental care helps your pet live a longer, healthier, and more comfortable life. That’s why our veterinary team provides comprehensive dental services to meet the individual needs of your pet.
Complete Dental Examinations
Our dental exams assess your pet’s oral health from top to bottom. We evaluate their teeth, gums, and overall oral condition to identify any issues early.
Dental X-Rays
With advanced dental X-ray technology, we can assess the health of teeth and bone structures beneath the gumline, detecting problems that can’t be seen during a visual exam.
Professional Cleanings
We perform thorough dental cleanings under anesthesia to remove plaque and tartar buildup to reduce the risk of periodontal disease. If a tooth is damaged or infected, we provide safe and effective extractions to relieve pain and help your pet feel better.
Safe and Effective Dental Care
To ensure your pet’s safety and comfort, all dental procedures are performed under anesthesia. This allows us to clean thoroughly and address any issues without causing stress or discomfort to your pet.
- Pre-Anesthetic Bloodwork: We recommend bloodwork on the day of the procedure to ensure safe anesthesia for your pet and identify any potential health issues.
- Comprehensive Monitoring: Your pet will be closely monitored for heart rate, breathing, and comfort by our skilled veterinary team who prioritizes their safety at all times.
Once the procedure is complete, we provide clear and detailed aftercare instructions to help your pet recover comfortably. Our team is here to answer any questions and support you through the recovery process.
Protecting Your Pet’s Dental Health
Regular dental checkups and cleanings are vital for maintaining your pet’s health and happiness. Together, we can create a customized dental care plan to keep their teeth and gums in top shape.
