Pet Dental Care

At Roosevelt Animal Hospital, we understand that dental health is an important aspect of your pet’s overall well-being. That’s why we offer comprehensive veterinary dental care services to help keep your pet’s teeth and gums healthy and strong.

What is veterinary dental care? Veterinary dental care encompasses a range of services designed to keep your pet's teeth and gums healthy, including preventive care, diagnostic services, and treatments for dental conditions. Our team of experienced veterinarians is trained to provide the highest quality dental care services to keep your pet's smile bright and healthy.

Dental care is important for pets for many reasons. Regular dental care can help prevent painful conditions such as gum disease, tooth decay, and tooth loss. It can also help keep your pet's breath fresh and prevent bad odors. By keeping your pet's teeth and gums healthy, you can help improve their overall health and well-being and prolong their lifespan.

We recommend that you bring your pet in for a dental care appointment once a year, or as needed based on your pet's individual dental health. Our veterinarians can also provide recommendations on home dental care, such as brushing and the use of dental chews, to help keep your pet's teeth and gums healthy.
