DENTAL CARE
| Regular dental care is essential to helping your pet's teeth and to have a longer and healthier life. We use an ultrasonic scaler to clean each tooth thoroughly, both above and below the gum line. Dental technicians polish teeth to create a smooth, lustrous tooth surface more resistant to plaque buildup. Fluoride treatments help strengthen enamel and reduce tooth sensitivity. Our digital dental x-rays help us reveal dental disease above and below the gum line. |

LASER SURGERY
Laser surgery is a less invasive alternative to traditional surgery. Lasers replace scalpels in many procedures and are useful for treating a wide range of conditions such as Soft Palate Resection, Stenotic Nares Correction, Declawing as well as cyst, tumor and wart removal. Laser procedures result in less pain, less bleeding and less swelling. They reduce risk of infection and result in less post-operative discomfort.
