Protecting Your Pet’s Smile: Dental Care at Clear Fork Vet Clinic

At Clear Fork Vet Clinic, we believe that a healthy mouth means a healthier, happier pet. Dental health is one of the most overlooked areas of pet care, yet it plays a crucial role in your pet’s overall well-being.

Why Dental Care Matters

Periodontal disease is the most common health issue in pets, affecting most dogs and cats by age three. It starts with plaque - a sticky film that forms on teeth after eating. If not removed, plaque hardens into tartar, which can work its way beneath the gumline. This creates a breeding ground for bacteria, leading to:

  • Gum inflammation and pain

  • Tooth loss

  • Bad breath

  • Bacteria entering the bloodstream, potentially harming the heart, liver, and kidneys

How We Help

At Clear Fork, we offer a full range of veterinary dental services, including:

  • Routine dental cleanings

  • Oral exams under anesthesia

  • Digital dental X-rays

  • Tooth extractions when necessary

  • At-home dental care guidance

Each pet receives a personalized dental care plan based on their age, breed, and current oral health. We use safe, modern equipment and techniques to ensure your pet’s comfort and safety at every stage.

Don’t Wait for Symptoms

Signs of dental disease can be subtle. If your pet has bad breath, drools excessively, avoids eating hard food, or has red or swollen gums, it may be time for a dental checkup. But even if they seem fine, preventive care is key - routine cleanings can stop problems before they start.
