Small Animal Dental Care
Comprehensive Dental Care for Your Pets
Healthy teeth and gums are vital for your pet’s overall health and happiness. At Simon Veterinary Surgical (SVS), we specialize in small animal dental care for dogs and cats. Our expert team offers advanced dental cleanings, diagnostics, and treatments tailored to your pet’s needs.
Why Does Dental Health Matter?
Dental disease is one of the most common health issues in pets, affecting over 80% of dogs and cats by age three. If left untreated, conditions like periodontal disease can lead to pain, tooth loss, and even systemic health problems such as heart, kidney, and liver disease.
Routine dental care can help prevent these issues and keep your pet healthy and comfortable.
What’s Included in a Dental Appointment?
Our dental procedures go beyond simple cleanings. Here’s what you can expect:
Comprehensive Oral Examination
Before the cleaning, our veterinarians thoroughly examine your pet’s mouth to identify any issues such as tartar buildup, gum inflammation, loose teeth, or oral masses.
Dental X-Rays
Many dental issues occur below the gumline. We use advanced imaging to detect hidden problems, ensuring a complete diagnosis.
Ultrasonic Cleaning and Polishing
We remove plaque and tartar from your pet’s teeth, both above and below the gumline, followed by polishing to reduce future buildup.
Extractions and Treatments
If necessary, we perform extractions or other treatments to address severe dental issues. Your pet’s comfort is our top priority, and we use the latest pain management techniques to ensure a stress-free experience.
Personalized Home Care Plan
After the procedure, we provide detailed instructions and recommendations to maintain your pet’s dental health at home.

FAQs About Pet Dental Care
How often should my pet get a dental cleaning?
Most pets benefit from annual cleanings, but some may need more frequent care based on their age, breed, and oral health.
Will my pet be put under anesthesia?
Yes, anesthesia is essential for a thorough and stress-free dental procedure. It allows us to clean below the gumline and perform x-rays and treatments safely.
What can I do at home to support my pet’s dental health?
We recommend daily brushing, dental chews, and water additives. During your visit, we’ll provide tips and product recommendations tailored to your pet.
