Complete Veterinary Dentistry & Oral Surgery

Veterinary dentistry involves the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of oral diseases in dogs and cats. This includes everything from cleanings and X-rays to oral surgery and advanced periodontal care. At Pine Woods Animal Hospital, we offer full-service veterinary dentistry and oral surgery in Duxbury, MA, to ensure your pet’s mouth stays as healthy as the rest of their body.

Dental disease is not just a matter of bad breath — it’s one of the most common chronic health conditions in pets. If left untreated, it can cause:

Painful infections or abscesses
Loose or broken teeth
Bone loss in the jaw
Inflammation that spreads bacteria to vital organs (like the heart, liver, and kidneys)
Behavioral changes due to chronic oral discomfort

Routine professional cleanings under anesthesia allow us to clean below the gum line — where bacteria and plaque do the most damage — and identify problems that aren’t visible during a physical exam. When surgical treatment, such as extractions, is necessary, our experienced team ensures your pet receives safe, gentle care with effective pain relief and a smooth recovery plan.

We also educate pet owners on at-home oral hygiene and follow-up routines to keep their pets healthy long after the procedure — and keep them off the hook for a cleaning for longer.

Why Pet Dental Care Matters

Dental disease is one of the most common conditions in dogs and cats — but it’s also one of the most preventable. Pine Woods Animal Hospital practices comprehensive veterinary dentistry and oral surgery in Duxbury, MA, to keep your pet healthy, pain-free, and smiling through regular prevention and thorough care.

Up to 80% of adult dogs and cats have some form of dental disease. Left untreated, dental disease can:

  • Cause chronic pain and tooth loss
  • Lead to infections affecting the heart, liver, and kidneys
  • Reduce your pet’s appetite, energy, and overall health

Early detection and treatment can prevent serious complications and improve your pet’s quality of life.
