About the service
What is Veterinary Dentistry?
Oral surgeries performed include extractions, treatment of fractures and/or dislocations of the jaw, repair of cleft palate or oronasal communication (fistula), rhinotomy and surgery involving the temporomandibular joint (jaw), tongue and salivary glands.
The veterinary dentist also plays a role in the diagnosis and treatment of tumours and other oral diseases. This may involve obtaining a biopsy, CT scan, surgical excision of tumours by mandibulectomy or maxillectomy, or other advanced procedures. The Veterinary Dentist will combine their expertise with that of board-certified radiologists, oncologists, internists and other specialists to ensure the best possible care for their patients.
We also offer orthodontics, including diagnosis and treatment of malocclusions, extraction of temporary or permanent teeth, dental impressions and pulpotomy crown reductions. In some circumstances, passive orthodontic appliances (e.g., inclined plane) or active orthodontic appliances (e.g., elastic chain and buttons) are used.
