GOOD ORAL CARE IS IMPORTANT TO YOUR PET’S HEALTH

Did you know poor oral health can have a big impact on your pet’s overall health? That’s why it’s important to establish an oral care routine to keep your pet’s teeth clean.

If your pet has developed bad breath, this could signify gingivitis or gum disease. These conditions when severe, not only cause deterioration of the gums, teeth and bone, but could also affect the heart, liver, kidneys and lungs. Gum disease can be prevented with regular brushing and dental assessments.

Traveling Tails Veterinary Clinic performs dental procedures on pets comfortably under sedation; allowing us to safely treat issues below the gum line and make tooth extractions if necessary. Let us make your pet smile!

To ensure the safety of your pet Traveling Tails offers pre-anesthesia physical examination, pre-operative blood work and ECG screening for at risk patients. Our well-trained staff closely monitors all patients throughout and during recovery. We utilize advanced monitoring equipment to evaluate ECG, blood pressure, pulse oximetry, capnography and temperature readings.
