Dental care
Dental health is often overlooked, but it’s a crucial part of your pet’s overall wellbeing.
Dental disease can be very painful and can affect your pet’s quality of life. Left untreated, it can lead to secondary infections and health complications in other parts of your pet’s body.
At Rouken Glen Veterinary Surgery, we’re dedicated to helping you care for your pet’s teeth at home with practical advice on dental hygiene.
We offer a range of veterinary dental services to keep your pet’s teeth and gums in optimal condition. From professional cleaning to more advanced treatments for dental disease, we provide expert care to help prevent and treat any dental concerns, ensuring your pet maintains a healthy, pain-free mouth.
Signs of poor dental health
- Exceptionally bad breath
- A build-up of tartar (solid yellow/brown substance)
- Red, swollen, bleeding gums
- Sensitive to touch
- Broken or misaligned teeth
- Holes in teeth – typically in cats
- Overgrown teeth in rabbits and small furry pets
- Change in appetite/difficulty eating
- Change in demeanour/behaviour
At the forefront of veterinary dental care
We prefer to take a preventative approach to the enhancement of oral health so the surgery has a dedicated and fully equipped dental suite. Our Vets are highly experienced when it comes to routine scale and polishes, as well as extractions and other more complex dental procedures.
We prioritise continuous professional development which ensures our vets and veterinary nurses are always up to date with the latest advancements in veterinary dentistry.
If you are concerned about any aspect of your pet’s oral health, book a dental check-up with our team.
Rouken Glen Veterinary Practice understand that your pet is a loved member of your family and we treat them with the same care and compassion as if they were our own, supporting your pet’s long-term wellbeing.
We advise, diagnose and care for all pets at our modern, friendly practice.
