Dental
Dental disease is very common in dogs and cats and can cause significant discomfort if left untreated.
Our dental services include routine scale and polish treatments, investigation of oral growths, treatment for maxillofacial trauma and dental X-rays. Dental radiography allows us to assess the roots of the teeth and surrounding bone, which often reveals problems that cannot be seen during a standard examination.
Where necessary we perform tooth extractions and other dental procedures to relieve pain and improve oral health.
