Dental X-Rays for Your Pet

We were one of the first hospitals in the Maryland area to offer digital dental x-rays.  Without dental x-rays it is impossible to properly evaluate your pet’s dental health.  Just like in people, many pet dental problems are below the gum line and can only be detected with x-rays.  Without x-ray technology, many painful dental conditions are missed, leaving your dog or cat’s teeth, gums and dental health at risk.  Our veterinarians are able to accurately diagnose these problems and treat them appropriately. 

Why are dental x-rays so important for your pet? Untreated dental disease is not only painful for your pet, but can lead to many other problems such as liver, kidney and heart infections.

Dental Cleanings for Your Pet

Routine dental cleanings are vital for the overall health and well-being of our pets.  In fact, 80% of cats and dogs three years and older have periodontal disease and require professional dental cleaning to keep their mouths healthy and smelling fresh.  “Doggie breath” is not normal and chances are if you’re noticing it, your pet is in need of dental care.

Not sure if your pet needs a dental cleaning?  Germantown Vet offers complimentary dental exams by our veterinary nurses for our dog, cat and other animal patients to help determine if your pet is due for a cleaning.  Call our veterinary clinic in Germantown, Maryland (MD) today for a complimentary dental exam for your dog or cat!
