Healthy teeth are essential for your pet’s comfort and overall wellness, no matter their species. At Dublin Animal Hospital, we provide skilled dental care for dogs, cats, and small mammals like rabbits, guinea pigs, and ferrets. From routine cleanings to tooth extractions, our team is here to help your pet maintain a pain-free mouth and a better quality of life.
We remove plaque and tartar above and below the gumline, then take full-mouth X-rays to detect hidden problems like root infections or bone loss before they cause serious issues.
When a tooth is damaged or diseased, we perform precise extractions with multimodal pain control, like local blocks, opioids, and anti-inflammatory drugs, to restore your pet’s comfort and health.
We provide specialized dental care for rabbits, guinea pigs, and other small mammals, including trimming overgrown teeth and treating oral infections or injuries.
