Dental Care FAQ

Yes. General anesthesia is mandatory to safely clean beneath the gum line, prevent pain, and reduce stress for your pet during the procedure.
No. Our ultrasonic devices use vibrations to break only the tartar layer. When performed with the correct technique, the enamel remains perfectly intact.
Brushing 2-3 times a week can reduce tartar buildup by up to 70%. Always use pet-specific toothpaste as human paste can be harmful.
No. Bad breath is usually caused by bacterial infections. These bacteria can enter the bloodstream and spread to the heart, liver, and kidneys.
Soft food is recommended during the 7-10 day healing period. Once healed, pets often eat better as the chronic source of pain is gone.
Dental chews, toys, and water additives can delay plaque formation, but they do not replace professional veterinary dental cleanings.
