Small Animal Dental Care

Good oral health plays a vital role in your pet’s overall wellbeing. At Prebbleton Veterinary Hospital, we offer comprehensive dental care for dogs and cats — regular dental check ups, cleaning and treatment help to prevent pain, infection, and disease.

Our experienced team uses dental equipment and imaging along with gentle handling techniques to ensure your pet’s comfort throughout every visit. From routine cleaning to complex dental procedures, we’re here to keep those tails wagging and purrs coming with bright, healthy smiles.

Preventive Dental Care

Routine dental checks and cleaning help prevent common issues such as tartar build-up, gum disease, and bad breath. We recommend regular oral exams to detect problems early — before they cause pain or affect your pet’s health.

Dental Cleaning & Scaling

Our professional dental cleanings include ultrasonic scaling and polishing under general anaesthetic. This allows us to safely and thoroughly remove plaque and tartar above and below the gumline, reducing the risk of periodontal disease.

Tooth Imaging Extractions & Treatment

When teeth are damaged or diseased, we use our imaging equipment to evaluate and diagnose. Extraction may be necessary to relieve pain and prevent further infection. Our veterinarians perform extractions with precision and care, supported by effective pain management and post-operative monitoring.
