Dental health is a crucial, yet often overlooked, part of your pet’s overall well-being. At Kenilworth Vets, we believe that keeping your pet’s teeth and gums healthy is one of the best ways to ensure a long, comfortable, and pain-free life. Dental procedures, in particular, can be one of the best ways to help improve the quality of life in senior pets by sorting out unseen issues below the surface.
Your pet can’t tell you if their mouth hurts, so it’s up to us as pet owners to look for the signs. If your pet has issues in their mouth, we are here to help.
Look out for these common symptoms of pet dental problems:
This comprehensive price includes the anaesthetic, dental x-rays (which are vital for seeing problems below the gum line), and anti-inflammatory pain relief to take home. During the procedure, we scale all the tartar from your pet’s teeth and take out any teeth that are causing pain.
We stage our dentals to provide the best and safest care. While we will do all that we can to improve your dog’s or cat’s teeth and gums, anaesthetic procedures increase in risk the longer they go on. If a pet’s dental issues are extensive, we will prioritise sorting the most urgent problems likely to be causing pain first. This may mean that a further procedure is needed down the line, but it ensures your pet will be much more comfortable having had their most pressing issues addressed.
While professional care is essential, you can also support your pet’s oral hygiene at home. At Kenilworth Vets, we have an array of oral hygiene products you can use to help keep your pet’s mouth healthy between appointments.
Just ask one of our friendly team members during your next visit and we can recommend the best products for you and your pet’s needs.
