Dental Care

Healthy Teeth, Healthy Pets

Dental care is a vital part of your pet’s overall health. At Cy-Fair Animal Hospital in Cypress and Houston, we know that dental disease affects more than just your pet’s mouth—it can impact the heart, liver, kidneys, and overall well-being. Routine dental care helps keep your pet comfortable, healthy, and smiling for years to come.

Why Dental Care Matters

Did you know that approximately 80% of dogs and 70% of cats over the age of three have some form of dental disease? When left untreated, dental issues can lead to chronic pain, infection, and serious health complications. That’s why dental care is a key part of your pet’s preventive wellness plan.

Signs Your Pet May Need Dental Care

Keep an eye out for common warning signs, including:

• Brown or yellow buildup on the teeth
• Persistent bad breath
• Difficulty eating or chewing
• Pawing at the mouth or signs of oral discomfort

If you notice any of these symptoms, your pet may be experiencing dental disease and should be evaluated by our veterinary team.

At-Home Dental Care

Regular brushing, dental chews, and routine mouth checks at home can help support healthy teeth and gums between professional cleanings.

Comprehensive Professional Dental Care

Professional dental cleanings are the most effective way to protect your pet’s oral health. Our dental services include:

• Thorough ultrasonic cleanings above and below the gumline
• Digital dental X-rays to detect hidden issues beneath the surface
• Safe and effective tooth extractions, when necessary, to relieve pain and prevent infection

Dental X-rays allow us to identify problems that aren’t visible to the naked eye, ensuring your pet receives complete and accurate care. When extractions are needed, our team prioritizes comfort, safety, and a smooth recovery.
