An essential part of dental care is regular dental scaling. Plaque buildup over time can lead to bad breath, gingivitis, and even damage to the gum bone and periodontal ligament, causing pain and discomfort to your pet. If this condition persists, bacteria can penetrate deeper, increasing the risk of infection and serious damage to the teeth and gums. Therefore, maintaining a routine of regular dental checkups and dental scaling will help keep your pet healthy, comfortable, and avoid dangerous complications.

Tumors in the oral cavity of pets are often malignant, requiring early diagnosis and intervention to ensure effective treatment. At Sky Animal Medical Center, veterinarians carefully assess the extent of removal to make the surgery safer and more effective. In addition, cases of jaw fractures due to illness or trauma may also require surgical intervention to restore chewing function. We work with an experienced surgical team to bring the best results for pets. In addition, other problems such as periapical abscesses and broken tooth extraction are also carefully treated, helping pets stay healthy and comfortable.

Common dental problems in cats include osteolytic lesions of the teeth (FORL) and stomatitis. The exact cause of FORL is unknown, but this condition accounts for about 30% of dental diseases in cats, causing bone loss in the root or crown of the tooth. To make an accurate diagnosis, your veterinarian will carefully evaluate the condition of the teeth and perform tooth extractions when necessary, while minimizing damage to the jawbone. For stomatitis, the treatment regimen will be adjusted according to the severity of the disease. At SKY Veterinary Hospital, we always focus on using appropriate methods and medications to reduce side effects, improve treatment effectiveness, help cats recover quickly and have a healthier life.
