Gold Standard Dentistry
Helps your pet live a longer, happier life.
Just like our own dental health, dental care for your pet is an important piece of its overall wellness. Dental problems can also happen quickly. Sunshine Animal Hospital provides both routine annual dental care as well as urgent care for problems such as chipped teeth. Daily maintenance of your pet’s oral health is likely not up to the standards of your own oral health. Therefore, an annual dental cleaning is a significant benefit for their well being and long-term oral health. Preventative dental care is similar to human dental exams. For example, it includes charting, cleaning, polishing, examination of teeth and other oral structures, dental x-rays, and extractions. Not only will an annual dental cleaning help combat the dreaded bad breath of your beloved pet, but it also identifies underlying problems that may be present.

Signs your pet needs has dental problems:
Cats often conceal problems more than dogs. Signs include your cat sticking its tongue out of its mouth or your cat is drooling. Another sign of dental problems include your cat not wanting to eat. Signs that your dog has dental problems: Bad breath, visible buildup on teeth, or red gums. Many people believe that their dog will not want to eat if dental problems are present. However, that is often not the case and is a supporting reason to consider annual dental services.
