Why dental care matters for Kirkland pets

We treat many Kirkland pets for dental disease every month. Because most disease hides under the gums, a professional cleaning with full mouth X-rays is the gold standard — it prevents pain, protects organs and improves quality of life.

Signs your pet may need dental care

• Bad breath or drooling
• Brown or yellow tartar on teeth
• Red or bleeding gums
• Chewing on one side or dropping food

• Loose, fractured or missing teeth
• Pawing at the mouth or face sensitivity
• Reluctance to eat or sudden pickiness
• Facial swelling or change in behavior

What to expect at a dental visit

1. Pre-exam and pre-anesthetic bloodwork
2. Full mouth dental X-rays to check below the gumline
3. Scaling above and below the gumline and polishing
4. Sealant when indicated
5. Extractions only when a tooth is diseased or fractured
6. Pain management and a written home-recovery plan

Many Kirkland pets come to us after being told a simple cleaning was enough. X-rays often reveal hidden, painful disease. Treating the true source of pain helps pets eat, play and rest comfortably again.

FAQ for Kirkland pet parents

• How often should Kirkland pets have a dental cleaning?
  Many benefit from annual cleanings. Small breed dogs and some cats may need more frequent care.
• Is anesthesia safe for older dogs and cats?
  Yes. With modern monitoring, most seniors handle anesthesia well and feel better once painful teeth are treated.
• Do you always take full mouth dental X-rays?
  Yes — most disease is under the gums, so X-rays are essential to do it right the first time.
