Preventive
We all know that preventing disease or catching it in its early stages is far better than treating it once it has had time to progress. Preventive health care on a regular basis will save your pet from needless suffering.
Dental Care
Proper dental care is extremely important in dogs and cats. Lack of attention to teeth and gums can lead to gingivitis, periodontitis, bone infection, dental abscess, and tooth loss. Besides the unpleasant odor, oral disease is painful and can lead to disease in other parts of the body.
Most dental procedures in dogs and cats require some level of anesthesia. All patients receive pre-anesthetic blood testing, are maintained on IV fluids, and receive continual monitoring of vital signs throughout the procedure.
At Coit North Veterinary Hospital, we provide dental care to prevent problems with your pet's teeth and gums, including:
- Dental Examination
- Routine Dental Prophylaxis (Cleaning)
- Tartar Removal
- Gingival & Periodontal Disease Management
- Vaccination Against Periodontal Infections
