Pet Dental Extractions

Dental issues can cause significant pain and discomfort, and in some cases, extraction of one or more teeth may be necessary to alleviate these problems. At Animal’s Best Choice Veterinary Hospital, we conduct these extractions as needed to ensure your companion enjoys a comfortable quality of life.

Understanding Pet Dental Extractions

Pet dental extractions are sometimes necessary when a tooth is damaged beyond repair. This can be due to advanced gum disease, severe tooth decay, or trauma. In such cases, removing the affected tooth helps to prevent further infection and pain, allowing your pet to return to a comfortable, pain-free life. Dental extractions are typically performed under anesthesia to ensure your pet’s comfort and safety throughout the procedure.

When is Pet Dental Extraction Necessary?

Knowing when your pet needs a dental extraction can be challenging, as animals often hide signs of pain. However, there are some indicators that may suggest an extraction is needed. Persistent bad breath, difficulty eating, and visible swelling around the mouth are common signs of dental issues. If your pet shows signs of oral pain, such as pawing at the mouth or drooling excessively, it’s essential to seek veterinary care promptly. During a dental examination, our veterinarians will assess your pet’s oral health and determine if an extraction is necessary.

In some cases, even a seemingly minor dental issue can escalate if left untreated. Broken teeth, for instance, may expose the nerve, leading to significant pain and infection. By addressing these issues early through extraction, you can prevent more serious complications and ensure your pet’s long-term health.
