Healthy Teeth, Happy Pets: Complete Dental Care You Can Trust

Regular dental care is essential to your pet’s overall health. Cleanings and exams not only help prevent painful dental disease, but they also reduce the risk of serious issues like infections, abscesses, resorptive lesions, and broken or misaligned teeth. At Highbury North Pet Hospital, we take a thorough and gentle approach to dental care to ensure your pet stays comfortable and healthy for years to come.

Dental disease can be silent—but with routine cleanings, digital x-rays, and targeted treatments, we can catch problems early and keep your pet smiling. Our highly trained team uses the latest techniques and technology to deliver safe, effective, and compassionate dental care every step of the way.

A professional dental cleaning includes:

• Pre-anesthetic exam
• General anesthesia and IV fluids
• Full-mouth dental X-rays
• Comprehensive oral exam of every tooth and gum surface
• Monitoring by both equipment and our experienced team
• Ultrasonic scaling and polishing above and below the gumline
• Nerve blocks and local anesthesia for extractions, if needed
• Pain management before, during, and after the procedure
• And of course—plenty of TLC throughout!
