Healthy Mouth, Healthier Life
Veterinary Dentistry in Virginia Beach, VA
Your pet’s oral health has a direct impact on their overall well-being. At Great Neck Veterinary Clinic, we offer professional veterinary dentistry in Virginia Beach to prevent and treat dental disease before it affects your pet’s quality of life.
Dental issues like plaque buildup, gum infection, and broken teeth aren’t just painful — they can lead to serious health problems involving the heart, kidneys, and liver. That’s why we recommend routine dental exams and cleanings as part of your pet’s preventive care.
Our Dental Services for Dogs and Cats
Oral Exams
We begin with a thorough examination of your pet’s teeth, gums, and oral structures. Signs of dental disease include bad breath, red or swollen gums, drooling, trouble chewing, or visible tartar.
Professional Dental Cleanings
Using ultrasonic scalers and specialized equipment, we clean above and below the gumline to remove harmful plaque and tartar. All cleanings are performed under general anesthesia for your pet’s safety and comfort.
Digital Dental X-rays
We use digital imaging to check for problems beneath the gumline, such as root abscesses, bone loss, or tooth fractures, that may not be visible on the surface.
Tooth Extractions
If a tooth is damaged beyond repair, we provide surgical removal and pain control options to relieve discomfort and prevent future complications.
The Importance of Preventive Dental Care
Just like humans, pets benefit from daily at-home care and routine dental checkups. We’ll show you how to brush your pet’s teeth, choose dental-friendly products, and monitor for signs of dental disease.
