Dental Care
Improve Your Pet's Oral Health
Dental disease is one of the most common medical conditions seen by veterinarians. The most common dental problem in cats and dogs is gingivitis. Gingivitis is an inflammation of the gums caused by the accumulation of plaque that can develop into periodontal disease, fractured teeth, and tooth resorption.
Taking care of your pet’s teeth is an important part of making sure they live a long healthy life. Did you know that brushing your pet’s teeth daily or at least three times weekly can increase their life expectancy by years? Your pet’s teeth are graded on a scale of 0-IV, IV being the worst. At Otterkill Animal Hospital, our veterinarians are dedicated to improving the oral health of every patient we treat. We take on patients from Montgomery, Goshen, Middletown, and beyond.

Our entire team is dedicated to educating you and providing your animal companion with exceptional care. Our doctors will grade your pet’s dental health during an examination and often recommend a dental prophylaxis be performed.
A dental prophylaxis is a procedure that includes oral hygiene care, a complete oral examination, and techniques to prevent disease and remove plaque and calculus from the teeth above and beneath the gum line. Our practice has all the appropriate tools to handle the procedure, including digital dental radiography that helps us detect issues before they cause pain or discomfort for your animal companion.
Being dedicated to your pet’s oral health is just another step in providing you with all the tools needed to give your pet a long and healthy life. As always, do not hesitate to ask us any questions. We are here to help!
