What Makes Our Dentistry Different
Advanced Training & Techniques
Dr. Moore brings years of advanced training to every procedure. While not a board-certified specialist, her education through the AVDC provides a level of expertise rarely found in general practice.
Full-Mouth Radiographs Every Time
We never cut corners. Every dental procedure includes full-mouth radiographs, as recommended by the AVMA and AVDC, to detect issues hidden beneath the gum line.
Tailored Home Care Plans
After treatment, we’ll equip you with tools and tips to maintain your pet’s oral health — from brushing techniques to safe dental chews and rinse options.
Why Dental Health Matters for Pets
Dental disease is one of the most common and underdiagnosed conditions in dogs and cats. Left untreated, it can lead to chronic pain, tooth loss, infections, and even damage to internal organs.
Our approach to pet oral health care is proactive and thorough. We detect problems early, address them effectively, and work with you to prevent future issues through education and at-home maintenance.
Signs your pet may need dental attention:
- Bad breath
- Red or bleeding gums
- Drooling or chewing on one side
- Decreased appetite
- Visible tartar or discolored teeth
Gentle, Low-Stress Care in a Boutique Setting
We understand that dental visits can be stressful for both pets and their people. That’s why our team is trained in low-stress handling and compassionate communication. From the moment you check in to your post-op consultation, we’re here to make the process as smooth and comforting as possible.
