Surgery – We offer a wide range of soft-tissue and orthopedic surgical procedures for both elective and more critical needs.  

We will answer your questions and describe your pet’s surgical procedure and expectations for healing and recovery.

 

Dentistry – In all that we do, our goal is for your pet to have a pain-free and disease-free mouth.  Our well equipped dental suite helps us to provide modern prophylactic cleanings and disease prevention as well as advanced dental disease diagnosis and treatment.  We utilize a stepwise approach for every patient called the Oral ATP (Assessment, Treatment, and Prevention of disease).

 

Assessment – Thorough oral evaluation before and during anesthesia, including detailed dental charting and x-ray imaging.

Treatment – Includes gross calculus removal, subgingival (below the gumline) cleaning, tooth polishing, irrigation, fluoride application, and OraVet™ (Pro) plaque barrier application.  Therapeutic extractions, restorations, and gingival surgeries may be needed depending on the disease present.

Prevention – Always tailored for the individual patient, we will discuss the best approach for long term oral health and comfort.  We will help you understand which home care methods and products are best.

 

Vaccinations – We want to provide your pet with the best protection against serious infectious diseases.  We will discuss our specific recommendations based on age, general health, lifestyle and risks of infection to help you make informed choices.  Throughout your pet’s life these factors will change, vaccine technology will change, and we will reevaluate the best strategy for your pet.
