Comprehensive Dental Care for Cats & Dogs
One critical element of cats' and dogs' oral and overall health is routine dental care. That said, most pets don't receive the oral hygiene care they need to keep their teeth and gums healthy.
At our veterinary hospital in Jesup, we offer preventive pet dental care services including teeth cleanings and polishing, performed by skilled veterinary assistants.
Our team also believes in providing dental health education to pet owners regarding the importance of home dental care for pets.

FAQs About Pet Dental Care
Here are some of the most frequently asked questions we receive from clients about pet dental care.
Veterinary Dentistry: Anesthesia & Your Pet's Oral Health
Since cats and dogs do not understand what is happening during dental cleaning procedures, they will often react by biting or struggling.
Similar to how dentists provide anesthesia to human patients who may be anxious or nervous, our vets in Jesup administer anesthesia to all of our patients before performing dental cleanings. This puts less stress on animals and allows us to clean their mouth as required.
