Dental disease, otherwise known as periodontal disease, is one of the most common ailments affecting our pets. Below outlines the steps taken during a dental cleaning procedure.

Periodontal Probing measures the gingival pocket around the tooth checking for bone loss and tooth mobility

Ultrasonic Scaling removes the plaque and tartar from the crown of the tooth and under the gumline

Before Cleaning & Polishing

Digital Dental Xrays are taken to carefully assess each tooth and to determine if there is hidden disease below the gum line

Polishing smooths the tooth after the ultrasonic scaling to prevent plaque accumulation
