Digestive issues are usually a sign something bigger is going on.
We offer a full range of diagnostic tests right in your home including blood testing and fecal sampling. Whether it’s a chronic issue like constipation, a dietary imbalance, or even a parasite, let’s sort it out.
Dental cleanings start just like yours. An oral exam is performed, full-mouth radiographs are taken, teeth are scaled and polished, and we remove calculus from the tooth’s surface and under gum lines. We then probe the teeth to measure the pockets that exist under the gum lines. If teeth are very unhealthy, we remove them. There is often pain and risk of infection associated with diseased teeth. What we have heard from our clients is that pets seem brighter, eat better, and look happier after a dental cleaning with us!

In dogs and cats, we remove teeth because:
• Teeth have been fractured (after chewing on an antler or rocks, for example).
• Your pet still has baby teeth.
• Teeth have an abscess or pocket of infection at the root.
• Teeth never erupted (these can cause dangerous cysts).
• Teeth are dead causing infection or pain.
• Teeth are mobile and is a source of infection and discomfort.
The pricing for dental care will vary for each pet based on the situation. To inquire about pricing, please submit a dental inquiry and our dental concierge will contact you with details.
It’s important you ease into a tooth brushing routine. Start by getting your pet comfortable with your hands near their mouth. Brush your pet’s teeth every day, and make sure to reward them after every session. Learn how to brush your dog’s teeth here and how to brush your cat’s teeth here.
Yes, dental disease is the most common disease in dogs and cats. Over 68% of all pets over the age of three have some form of periodontal or dental disease. Most pets will show few signs of dental disease.
Because 2⁄3 of the tooth is under the gumline, we perform dental radiographs for every patient to ensure the health of the entire tooth. Dental radiographs can reveal things like abscesses, bone loss, unerupted teeth and more.
Dental extractions are when we remove teeth during a dental cleaning procedure. Teeth need to be removed if the tooth is broken, if the inner part of the tooth called the pulp or dentin is exposed, if the tooth is mobile (wiggly), if the tooth is dead, or if we see evidence of infection. We always hope to take out as few teeth as possible, but after taking dental x-rays, we sometimes find some bad surprises lurking under the gum lines.
If your pet doesn’t require extractions, the process takes under 1 hour. If we do need to perform extractions or your pet has dental disease, however, it will take longer. During the entire dental cleaning, we will keep you informed.

Every pet is required to have a pre-operative appointment. This will consist of a full physical exam and medical history review. We do this to ensure your pet is ready to undergo the anesthesia necessary for the procedure, and that we are aligned on which (if any) teeth need to be removed. Our dental procedures are performed at all of our New York clinics.
Yes, your pet will be under full anesthesia. This protects your pet’s airways while our team uses sharp instruments and a steady flow of water in your pet’s mouth. If you have more questions about this, you can call one of our veterinary hospitals.
Periodontal disease is the inflammation or infection of the tissues surrounding the tooth. Accumulation of tartar and calculus on the teeth contributes to gum recession around the base of the tooth. Left untreated, infection can spread into the tooth socket, and ultimately the tooth loosens and falls out.
