Pet Dentistry
Dental health plays a vital role in your pet’s overall wellbeing. We offer professional dental examinations and treatments to help prevent pain, infection, and dental disease, keeping your pet’s teeth and gums healthy.
At Leeming Vet, we know that dental disease is one of the most common health issues seen in dogs and cats, and it often goes unnoticed until it becomes more advanced. Regular dental care is essential not only for maintaining a healthy mouth, but also for supporting your pet’s overall health, as dental disease can impact the heart, kidneys, and other vital organs over time.
Dental procedures are performed under general anaesthesia so we can carry out a complete and pain-free assessment of the mouth. This allows us to clean below the gum line, identify hidden issues, and treat any diseased teeth safely and effectively. Throughout the procedure, your pet is carefully monitored using modern anaesthetic and monitoring equipment.
We also take the time to talk through preventative dental care at home, including tooth brushing, diet options, and dental products that can help reduce plaque build-up between visits. Prevention plays a key role in reducing the need for more extensive dental work in the future.
As a family owned and locally operated clinic, we focus on gentle, personalised care for every patient. Our goal is to keep your pet comfortable, healthy, and pain-free, while helping you understand how to best support their dental health at home.
