Your pet’s oral health is one of the most important aspects of their overall physical well-being. When your pet comes in for their annual physical examination at our animal hospital, we conduct a complete nose-to-tail check, with special attention to their oral cavity. Depending on what we find there, we may recommend a professional dog and cat teeth cleaning in Searcy, AR, to ensure that your pet’s mouth remains healthy, helping them to live a longer life! Get started today by calling us at (501) 268-5381.
What Does Professional Cat and Dog Teeth Cleaning and Dental Care Include?
When your pet is deemed in need of professional dental care from Liles Animal Clinic, their care will include:
Pre-anesthetic blood work
to ensure they are healthy enough for general anesthesia
Anesthetized dental cleaning
using our ultrasonic scaler and hand instruments to remove tartar and plaque buildup on teeth above and below the gum line
Polishing
of teeth & fluoride treatment
Digital dental x-rays
to check for underlying causes or health concerns in the oral cavity—they also allow the tooth roots to be evaluated
Extractions
using our high speed dental hand piece if a diseased tooth is not salvageable
We invite you to explore the gallery of dental photos above to see the difference that a professional dental cleaning can make in your pet’s mouth. If you have questions about your pet’s oral needs, please contact us today!
At Home Dental Care for Dogs and Cats
In addition to professional cleanings, our animal hospital in Searcy, AR, recommends the use of dental health care products for dogs and cats at home. Any dental care product that is accepted by the Veterinary Oral Health Counsel (VOHC) is recommended to maintain good oral hygiene. We invite you to look at the VOHC website to see accepted products here.
