Superior Dental Care at MetroPet Veterinary Clinic
Your pet's health and comfort are our top priorities. A dental infection isn't just about bad breath; it involves red, inflamed gums and significant pain. Left untreated, bacteria from the mouth can travel through the bloodstream, leading to systemic diseases affecting the heart and kidneys.
The MetroPet Standard of Care
Full-mouth digital x-rays (pre and post-extraction) to identify hidden disease under the gum line. This is the cornerstone of good dentistry. You can’t perform good dentistry without x-rays.
- Professional scaling using high-speed water scalers, followed by polishing and fluoride treatment.
- Comprehensive pain management: Medication is provided before, during, and after surgery, including prescriptions to take home.
- Anti-nausea injections to ensure a smooth recovery.
Advanced Anesthesia & Monitoring
- EKG (heart), Oxygen, and Carbon Dioxide monitors.
- Constant blood pressure and temperature monitoring.
- Patient warming systems, including heat mats, IV fluid warmers, and even baby socks on their little feed if needed, to maintain body heat.
A Fear-Free Experience
