About Oral Surgery and Pet Dental Care with our Veterinarian in Clifton NJ
Too often, we are not aware of painful issues our pets may be having such as a sore or broken tooth that is causing them a great deal of distress. This is one reason why Dr. Henderson and Dr. Kozakiewicz stress the importance of pet dental care and routine visits for pet dental exams. Often painful mouth issues in your dog or cat can require oral surgery like pet dental extractions to resolve the issue. Our experienced and caring veterinarian in Clifton NJ can help with that.

Oral Surgery and Pet Dental Extractions
Tooth extraction for pets is a pretty common dental procedure. Dr. Henderson and Dr. Kozakiewicz offer this procedure for their patients at Valley Animal Hospital. We will discuss the benefits as well as any surgical risks and the cost of the recommended dental treatment at the consultation. We will also go over any concerns or questions you may have to ensure you have a complete understanding of the oral surgery procedure.
All About Anesthesia for Pet Oral Surgery
All pets that are scheduled for oral surgery of any kind will be under anesthesia during the procedure. The main reason for this is simple: your pet could never remain still, especially with the noisy equipment used. This could cause major complications, as sharp tools and a hyper pet does not mix well. Although you may have heard the risks of anesthesia, we assure you that our team at Valley Animal Hospital go the extra mile to make sure it remains as close to zero risks as possible.

A complete dental prophylaxis (dental care program) is one of the ways Valley Animal Hospital helps you keep your dog or cat healthy. If your pet has had oral surgery or pet dental extractions, it is crucial to maintain regular routine visits for our dental care program for your pet.
