Studies show that 70% of dogs and 80% of cats have some degree of dental disease by age three. If left untreated, continued accumulation of tartar and bacteria can affect the health of your pet’s mouth as well as become a dangerous source of infection, impacting your pet’s kidneys and heart function.
Northern Liberties Veterinary Center provides the most comprehensive, contemporary pet dental services, care and oral surgery available. We offer digital x-ray technology and state-of-the-art dental prophylaxis equipment. We use only the best dental health materials. We provide a local, long-acting nerve block to every dog and cat that requires extractions. This maximizes patient comfort while allowing us to use very light levels of anesthesia.
Dental care is not something that can be left to periodic visits with your veterinarian. Because plaque buildup—the primary cause of poor oral health—is a gradual process occurring throughout the life of your pet, it is important to practice good home dental care. As with humans, this means regular tooth brushing and in some cases additional steps may be necessary.
Our staff will show you the proper method for caring for your pet’s teeth as well as help you select the most effective dental products for your pets dental hygiene.
