Pet Dental Cleaning

Dr. Jeana Ohlen Stresses the Importance of Pet Dental Cleaning

A pet's dental health is very important to their overall health. Many health problems can be caused by poor dental care which can cause many health problems in other parts of the body as well. It is important to try to do all that you can at your home in Bastrop, Cedar Creek, Del Valle, or Austin, to take care of your pet's teeth. Try to regularly brush your pet's teeth and also talk to Dr. Jeana Ohlen about other products that are marketed to help with pet dental care. Not all products work especially well, but our team would be happy to make recommendations.

Pet Dental Cleaning at Our Office in Cedar Creek

Our veterinarian and veterinary technicians will perform dental cleanings under anesthesia so that the animal can remain still and comfortable. This allows a thorough examination, the chance to take x-rays to see below the gum line, the opportunity to thoroughly remove plaque and tartar, and polish the teeth. It is important to have your pet's teeth checked at least once a year by a veterinarian. Bring them in sooner if you notice any problems such as pain, bleeding, or swelling in the mouth, broken or discolored teeth, reduced appetite, extra teeth, or abnormal drooling or chewing.

There are many dental problems treated by veterinarians. The sooner the problems are found, the better. These include periodontal disease, tumors or cysts in the mouth, broken jaw, misalignment of the teeth, abscessed or infected teeth, palate defects, and broken teeth. If your pet begins behaving strangely, it is always a good idea to get them into our office and have them checked out. It could be one of these problems. Always be careful when trying to look in your pet's mouth, as they may bite.

All who live in Bastrop, Cedar Creek, Del Valle, Austin, and surrounding areas are invited to make an appointment with Dr. Jeana Ohlen for a pet dental cleaning at Highway 71 Veterinary Hospital in Cedar Creek, TX.
