In the interest of your pet's optimum health and quality of life, we will be providing a dental health procedure today. A full dental health procedure is not a simple teeth cleaning; on the contrary, it is a full anesthetic procedure often involving invasive actions. The standard dental procedure involves, but is not limited to:
- Full general anesthesia with intubation
- ECG, respiratory, and pulse oximetry monitoring
- Deep oral exam, well beyond what can be provided while awake
- Ultrasonic scaling
- Polishing
- Dental radiology
During the procedure, if findings indicate necessity of additional services (extractions, periodontal treatments, etc), the doctor will provide the extra care, but it will be at an additional cost. If the doctor encounters needs beyond the above list, please advise us below how you would prefer we proceed.
