Comprehensive Pet Dental Care in Knoxville
Just like humans, pets need regular dental care to stay healthy. Without it, dental disease can lead to pain, infections, and serious health complications. At West Hills Animal Hospital, we offer complete veterinary dentistry services in Knoxville, TN, to keep your pet’s mouth clean and comfortable. From routine dog and cat dental cleanings to advanced tooth extractions and digital dental radiography, our skilled team provides gentle, thorough care in a safe, stress-free environment.
Professional Pet Dental Cleanings
Regular dental cleanings are the best way to prevent periodontal disease, which affects most pets by the age of three. During a dog or cat dental cleaning, we remove plaque and tartar buildup both above and below the gum line using ultrasonic scaling tools. We polish the teeth, check for signs of disease, and provide personalized recommendations for at-home dental care. All cleanings are performed under anesthesia to ensure a thorough and safe experience.
Digital Dental X-Rays
Many dental problems in pets lie below the gumline, where they can’t be seen with the naked eye. That’s why we use digital dental X-rays to examine the roots, jawbone, and internal tooth structure. This advanced imaging helps us detect infections, fractures, abscesses, and other issues that may require treatment, even in pets with no outward signs of discomfort.
Pet Tooth Extractions
If your pet has a damaged, loose, or infected tooth, an extraction may be necessary to relieve pain and prevent further health complications. Our veterinary team performs tooth extractions with precision and care, using local anesthesia and pain control protocols to ensure your pet’s comfort during and after the procedure. We’ll provide detailed aftercare instructions and follow-up support to help your pet recover smoothly.
