PET DENTALS

At-Home Dental Assessments for Dogs and Cats

Early pet dental care is essential for preventing pain, tooth loss, and infection. Our mobile vet service provides in-home dental consultations that help identify dental disease, gingivitis, and tooth decay before they become serious concerns. During your vet home visit, Dr. Irons gently examines your pet’s teeth, gums, and oral health to detect early changes and recommend appropriate next steps.

While full dental cleanings require a hospital setting, out at-home evaluations help identify early dental issues before they progress into painful conditions
Dr. Irons provides personalized recommendations to support ongoing oral health and preventive care

Frequently Asked Questions

Is dental cleaning really necessary for dogs?

Yes. Dental disease is extremely common and can lead to pain, infection, and organ complications if untreated. Professional cleanings remove tartar below the gumline, while at-home exams and brushing help maintain oral health between veterinary visits.

How do mobile dental assessments help my pet?

A mobile veterinarian evaluates your pet’s mouth in a calm environment, reducing stress and providing early detection of dental issues. These assessments guide next steps, ensure timely treatment, and make long-term dental care easier for anxious or mobility-limited pets.

When should I schedule a dental assessment for my pet?

Schedule an exam if you notice bad breath, red gums, difficulty chewing, or visible tartar. Annual assessments are ideal, especially for senior pets. Early detection helps prevent painful conditions and supports healthier long-term dental care.
