Dental Disease

Dental disease is one of the most common health issues in pets, affecting over 80% of dogs and 70% of cats by age three. Oral bacteria can enter the bloodstream and harm vital organs like the heart, liver, and kidneys.

At Newport Veterinary Hospital of Rock Hill, we offer advanced dental care and guidance on at-home hygiene to support your pet’s overall health.

Our Dental Services

During your pet’s wellness visit, we’ll examine their teeth and gums for dental disease and discuss treatment if needed. Good dental care includes regular exams, professional cleanings, and at-home maintenance.

Most pets need a dental exam and cleaning every 1–2 years. We’ll create a personalized plan and provide products to help you maintain your pet’s oral health at home, reducing the need for frequent cleanings.

We also offer an affordable dental package with exam, pre-anesthetic evaluation, anesthesia, digital x-rays, and cleaning. Learn more about this package here.

What to Expect During Your Pet’s Dental Cleaning

Step - 1

Schedule a Dental Consult

At your next visit, talk with your veterinarian or schedule a dedicated dental consultation. We’ll carefully examine your pet’s teeth and gums to spot any signs of dental disease and decide if a cleaning or additional treatment is necessary. If treatment is needed, we’ll guide you through the process and provide a clear cost estimate upfront.
Step - 2

Pre-Procedure Screening

Before the cleaning, we’ll perform pre-surgical bloodwork to ensure your pet is healthy enough for anesthesia. This important step helps us provide safe, personalized care tailored to your pet’s needs—especially when seeking trusted pet care in Rock Hill.
Step - 3

Dental Cleaning Day

On procedure day, your pet will be under general anesthesia for a full oral exam, deep cleaning, and digital X-rays to detect hidden issues. If needed, our skilled team can perform oral surgery safely.

We remove plaque and tartar with ultrasonic tools, then polish and rinse to protect your pet’s teeth.

Step - 4

Charting and Monitoring

Each tooth is charted to monitor its condition and support your pet’s long-term dental health. During the procedure, our trained technicians closely watch your pet’s vital signs to ensure safety and comfort throughout.
Step - 5

Recovery

After the procedure, your pet will rest in a warm, quiet recovery area under close supervision. We ensure they’re comfortable and stable before going home.
Step - 6

Post-Procedure Communication

Your veterinarian will give you a full update on the procedure and any recommended follow-up care. When you arrive to pick up your pet, a technician will go over post-care instructions and answer any questions you may have.
