Pet Dental Care In Claremont, NH

Pet Dental Care

Dental health is one of the most important, and often overlooked, parts of your pet’s overall well-being. Untreated dental disease can cause chronic pain and may affect vital organs such as the heart, liver, and kidneys. At Claremont Animal Hospital, we take dental care seriously and offer comprehensive, professional dental services to keep your pet healthy and comfortable.

We provide professional dental cleanings under general anesthesia to allow for a thorough and safe procedure. While your pet is anesthetized, our team performs a complete oral examination and uses an ultrasonic scaler to remove plaque and tartar above and below the gumline, areas that cannot be safely or effectively cleaned while a pet is awake. Teeth are then polished to help slow future plaque buildup.

If dental disease or damaged teeth are present, tooth extractions are performed as needed, with pain medication and antibiotics provided to ensure comfort and proper healing. Intra-oral dental radiographs may be used to evaluate the health of tooth roots and surrounding bone, allowing us to identify problems that are not visible on the surface.
