ABOUT DENTISTRy
Dogs & Cats
Audubon Family Veterinary Center provides the latest in medical/surgical veterinary procedures and treatment for your pet’s oral health. We believe that routine dental care prevents dental disease that can lead to:
• pain and premature tooth loss
• periodontal disease
• infections that can spread throughout the body, affecting the heart, lungs, kidneys and liver
• can lead to a decreased quality of life
Our oral health program consist of three parts, each tailored to fit your pet:
1 - A complete oral exam of the mouth including charting of periodontal pockets for each tooth, and digital x-rays of each tooth and its root structure to evaluate for disease below the gumline.
2 - Cleaning each individual tooth above and below the gumline by ultrasonic scaling followed by polishing each tooth.
3 - Educating our clients about continued dental care to help prevent disease going forward.
