Section 3: Oral Surgery and Additional Preventive DentistryYour pet will receive full mouth dental radiographs during their full anesthetic dental cleaning today. Dental radiographs are the only way to truly evaluate your pet’s complete dentistry needs as most periodontal disease lies beneath the visual surface of the gums. Due to this we often encounter problems that require further intervention unforeseeable until your pet has already been placed under anesthesia. This intervention may include but is not limited to; performing periodontal bonds and sealants to protect teeth from further fractures/damage, use of antibiotic gels to seal the beginning formation or intraoral pocketing and performing dental extractions to prevent the progression of periodontal disease resulting in infection and/or oral bone loss in affected teeth. Please choose one of the options below regarding additional dentistry and our communication with you regarding your pet’s needs:Please select your choice below* Please call me prior to performing any additional dentistry required for my pet.
