Dental Care

One of the biggest advances of the years is how veterinarians deal with your pet’s dental issues. Years ago, doctors simply cleaned your pet’s healthy teeth and extracted any bad ones. Southwest Louisiana Veterinary Clinic has the equipment and procedures that enable us to preserve many of those teeth that previously had to be extracted. This allows us to keep your pet’s mouth healthy and pain free. Dental disease is an increasing concern in veterinary medicine. Some animals may have significant tartar and gingivitis at 2-3 years of age. If left untreated, dental disease can contribute to heart disease, liver disease, and kidney disease, potentially shortening your pet's life as much as two years. Yearly dental exams and cleanings may increase the life-span of your pet tremendously. We offer a variety of products and services to improve your pet’s dental health.
