🦷✨ Dental health is more than just a clean smile — it’s an important part of your pet’s overall health. Here’s how we keep your furry friend safe and comfortable during a dental procedure at our hospital:

🔹 Pre-anesthetic bloodwork — This helps us check organ function and ensure your pet is healthy enough for anesthesia.
🔹 Intubation & anesthesia monitoring — Just like in human medicine, your pet is intubated and their vitals are carefully monitored the entire time (heart rate, oxygen, blood pressure, and more).
🔹 Dental radiographs (X-rays) — Since so much of dental disease hides below the gumline, X-rays let us see the full picture and catch problems we couldn’t see otherwise.
🔹 Extractions if necessary — If a tooth is painful, infected, or damaged, removing it relieves discomfort and prevents serious health complications.

By taking these steps, we make sure your pet’s dental care is not only thorough, but also as safe and stress-free as possible. A healthy mouth means a healthier, happier life. 💙🐾
