Dental care is more than cosmetic—it’s integral to your pet’s systemic health. Hub Clinics emphasises comprehensive oral health because bacteria and plaque in the mouth can lead to painful infections, bad breath, tooth loss and even heart, liver or kidney problems when they enter the bloodstream. Our dental services aim to prevent these complications through regular exams, early interventions and customised home care plans .
Many pets develop periodontal disease by the age of three. Because animals instinctively hide pain, owners often don’t notice problems until an infection is advanced. Routine professional dentistry offers:
Because pets can’t hold their mouths open or remain still, general anesthesia is required for proper dental prophylaxis. Before anesthesia, your pet receives a pre‑anesthetic exam and bloodwork to evaluate organ function and minimise risk. During the procedure, we insert an endotracheal tube to protect the airway and use IV fluids to maintain blood pressure. A dental technician charts findings, cleans teeth and assists the veterinarian. Following the procedure, your pet awakens in a warm recovery area under close supervision; pain management continues at home if extractions were necessary. Dental cleanings typically take 45–90 minutes, depending on the severity of disease and number of extractions required .
Daily or regular tooth brushing is the single most effective way to prevent plaque buildup. Use a soft‑bristled brush and veterinary‑approved toothpaste. For pets who resist brushing, dental chews, water additives and dental diets help reduce tartar. Routine professional cleanings should still occur every six to 12 months. Watch for signs of dental problems such as drooling, pawing at the mouth, difficulty eating, facial swelling or foul breath; schedule a dental exam promptly if these occur.
Our dental team combines experience and compassion, ensuring procedures are safe and stress‑free. We employ modern anesthetic monitoring, offer advanced diagnostics (such as dental radiographs and oral biopsy), and tailor home care plans to your pet’s needs. High‑quality dental care extends your pet’s life by preventing systemic infections and chronic pain .
Thorough dental cleaning requires access to all tooth surfaces, including below the gum line, and the use of sharp instruments. This simply isn't possible in an awake patient. Anesthesia also allows for dental X-rays, which reveal crucial information about tooth root health. 'Anesthesia-free' dental cleanings only address visible tartar and miss the most important aspects of dental care.
With proper pre-anesthetic evaluation and modern anesthetic protocols, anesthesia is generally safe even for older patients. The risks of untreated dental disease—chronic pain, infection, and organ damage—often outweigh anesthetic risks. We'll perform blood work and discuss your pet's individual risk factors honestly before proceeding.
This varies based on individual factors including breed (small breeds are more prone to dental disease), diet, home care efforts, and individual predisposition. Some pets need annual cleanings, while others may go longer between procedures. Regular dental examinations help us recommend an appropriate schedule for your pet.
Pets adapt remarkably well to tooth loss and can eat normally, often better than before because they're no longer experiencing dental pain. After extractions, we recommend soft food for a brief healing period, then most pets return to their regular diet. Many owners report their pets seem happier and more energetic after painful teeth are removed.
Bad breath, or halitosis, is not normal and usually indicates dental disease. The odor comes from bacteria producing sulfur compounds as they break down organic matter in the mouth. Persistent bad breath warrants a dental examination to assess the source and determine appropriate treatment.
