Caring for your pet's teeth is every bit as important as tending to the rest of their body. If you need assistance with pet dental care, the veterinary professionals at Crosspointe Animal Hospital are ready to assist you. Our veterinarian serves residents of Fairfax Station, Clifton, Lorton, and the surrounding areas. Here are some frequently asked questions about pet care and dental procedures to read over to help you realize why veterinary help is needed.

Pet Dental Care FAQs

What Happens If A Pet's Teeth Are Ignored?

A dog or cat that does not have routine teeth cleaning sessions and checks of the mouth could suffer from discomfort and pain. Tartar tends to build up on teeth if it is not removed regularly. This causes gingivitis and eventually tooth loss. Broken teeth could cut the interior of a pet's mouth. If dental issues become present and they are not addressed, other portions of the body could become inflicted with medical problems as a result.

How Can I Tend to My Pet's Oral Hygiene?

It is important to check your pet's mouth on a routine basis for any potential issues. If you notice swelling of the gums, bleeding, or loose or broken teeth, it is best to contact our mobile veterinarian immediately. Brushing your pet's teeth will remove any bacteria buildup. This is done with a pet toothbrush and toothpaste. Simply brush your dog or cat's teeth after meals or when their breath is not pleasing. It may take several sessions to clean your pet's teeth at first because they will need to get used to the procedure provided. If your pet does not enjoy the process, our staff can assist with veterinary care, giving you the peace of mind that health issues are treated properly and without waiting.

What Will Our Mobile Veterinarian Do to Help?

If you have difficulty giving your pet teeth cleaning sessions or if you notice they have a dental issue that needs to be checked, contacting our mobile veterinarian is an option to consider. Our practitioner will tend to your dog or cat, checking over their oral hygiene, cleaning their teeth thoroughly, and remedying any dental issues without delay. We provide emergency services, as well as wellness checks and preventative measures.
