Our services
Dentistry
Professional dental care, from scale and polish to extractions, to keep your pet’s mouth healthy and pain free.
Healthy teeth, happier pets
More than 80% of dogs and 70% of cats over the age of three have some form of dental disease. It is painful, and bacteria from infected gums can affect the heart, kidneys and liver. Because pets are very good at hiding pain, dental disease often goes unnoticed.
Signs to look out for
- Bad breath
- Red or bleeding gums
- Yellow or brown tartar on the teeth
- Chewing on one side, dropping food or reluctance to eat
- Pawing at the mouth

Frequently asked questions
Why does my pet need an anaesthetic for a dental clean?
Anaesthetic allows us to clean below the gumline, where most disease starts, and to examine every tooth safely and without stress for your pet.
How can I prevent dental disease at home?
Daily tooth brushing with a pet toothpaste is the gold standard. Dental diets and vet approved chews also help. Our nurses are happy to show you how.
