Dentistry

At Redstone, we are passionate about your pet’s dental health!  This is because dental disease can have a negative impact on your pet’s organ health and also causes pain.  At your pet’s annual wellness exam, we would like to discuss home dental care options so that we can prevent dental disease in your pet.  Yes, brushing is best (and it’s not as hard as you think!) but, if you can’t brush- we can help you find other alternatives.  If your pet has dental disease, we will talk to you about performing a dental cleaning on your pet.  Many of our clients comment that their pet acts like a puppy/kitten again after a cleaning!  We have advanced dental equipment, including a digital dental x-ray unit.  During the cleaning, we use an ultrasonic cleaner to remove all of the plaque and tartar, evaluate and clean any pockets, and then follow with a polishing.  Teeth are only extracted if they absolutely must come out for the comfort of the pet.
