Dental care in Daly City does more than freshen your dog or cat’s breath. Untreated periodontal disease quietly drives chronic pain, eating difficulty, tooth loss, and stress on the kidneys, liver, and heart over time. Our veterinarians provide full-mouth assessment, professional cleanings, digital dental X-rays, surgical extractions where needed, and home-care guidance to keep results lasting. We see dental cases seven days a week from 8 AM to 7 PM. For dental concerns outside our open hours, please visit a 24-hour veterinary facility in the Bay Area.
Veterinary dental care includes oral health assessment, professional dental cleaning under anesthesia, full-mouth digital dental X-rays, tooth extractions where needed, and home-care guidance for dogs and cats. The aim is to remove tartar above and below the gum line, identify periodontal disease early, and prevent the pain and infection that come with untreated dental problems.
Every dental visit begins with a careful oral exam. Our veterinarians check for tartar above and below the gum line, gingivitis, fractured teeth, resorptive lesions in cats, and any soft tissue changes in the mouth. Because most dental disease lives below the gum line where it cannot be seen on an awake exam, an anesthetized assessment with full-mouth digital dental X-rays is the only way to identify every concern. The exam findings shape the rest of the visit.
A professional dental cleaning at our Daly City clinic is done under careful anesthetic monitoring with individualized pain management. Our team scales tartar from above and below the gum line, polishes each tooth to slow the return of plaque, and rinses the mouth. Full-mouth digital dental X-rays are taken so any disease below the gum line can be identified and addressed. We currently offer 40% off professional dental cleanings, applied automatically at checkout for both new and existing patients.
When a tooth is fractured, mobile, or affected by deep periodontal disease or a resorptive lesion, an extraction is often the best path back to a comfortable mouth. Our veterinarians perform surgical extractions with local nerve blocks and post-procedure pain control, and use absorbable sutures where the gum needs closure. Most pets are noticeably more comfortable within a few days, and many owners report that their dog or cat is more active and eating better than they had been for months.
Brushing your pet’s teeth a few times a week is the single best thing you can do between visits. Our team will show you the technique and recommend a pet-safe toothpaste.
Dental diets, approved chews, and water additives can support brushing when used consistently. Our team will recommend products with proven results that fit your pet’s preferences and your routine.
Most adult dogs and cats benefit from a professional dental cleaning every one to two years, though some pets need cleanings more often based on breed, age, and home-care routine. Our team reviews your pet's mouth at every wellness exam and recommends timing.
Anesthesia lets our team clean below the gum line, where most dental disease lives, and take full-mouth digital dental X-rays. It also keeps your pet still and comfortable, and protects the airway during the procedure. Awake cleanings cannot reach what matters.
