Frequently Asked Questions
Dental descaling is a professional cleaning procedure that removes plaque and tartar from your pet’s teeth—both above and below the gumline—helping to prevent gum disease and other oral health issues.
Untreated plaque and tartar can lead to:
Bad breath
Gum infections (gingivitis, periodontitis)
Tooth loss
Pain while eating
Serious health issues affecting the heart, liver, or kidneys
Most pets benefit from once-a-year dental cleaning. However, pets prone to dental issues or small breeds may need more frequent care (every 6–9 months).
In some cases, light sedation or anesthesia may be recommended to keep your pet calm and allow thorough cleaning, especially for tartar below the gumline. The approach is always tailored to your pet’s safety and comfort.
No. The procedure is safe and comfortable. If anesthesia is required, your pet won’t feel any discomfort during the cleaning.
A standard dental descaling session usually takes 30–60 minutes, depending on the amount of tartar and your pet’s overall oral health.
