Hillside Animal Hospital is committed to educating pet owners about the importance of dental care to their pet's health and longevity. Dog dental health is as important as any other part of your dog's health care regimen. While many dog owners concentrate on their dog's nutrition and health below the neck, keeping a close eye on their teeth can be lifesaving. Just like in humans, the bacteria that will collect in your dog's mouth can lead to serious oral disease and even heart or kidney problems. This will in turn affect every part of your dog's health and quality of life. Since the most serious damage occurs below the gum line, it's important that your pet receives a regular comprehensive cleaning above and below the gum line by a trained professional. Regular dental cleanings is one of the most valuable gifts you can give to your pet to prolong his/her life.

veterinary dental imaging with digital X-ray technologyHillside Animal Hospital now offers digital X-ray technology, the latest advance in veterinary dental imaging. Our new equipment allows the medical team to obtain dental images that are more detailed than traditional x-rays, allowing for enhanced diagnostic and treatment capabilities as well as reduced anesthesia time compared to traditional X-rays.

Hillside's digital X-ray machine produces "on the spot" images so the veterinarian can see problems below the gum line and inside of teeth without having to wait for traditional x-ray films to be developed. Digital X-ray technology also gives the veterinarian the ability to you before and after images of your pet's dental procedures in a convenient, cost-effective manner. These images are invaluable to educating owners about the importance of oral health to their pet's longevity.

We offer complimentary dental assessments to determine whether or not your pet is due for a dental cleaning. If a dental cleaning is indicated, our medical team will use the latest techniques in performing a dental cleaning above and below the gum line so that you can have peace of mind that oral disease will not compromise your pet's overall health. We'll even take before and after pictures to show you the difference in your pet's smile! In addition, we'll show you how to maintain your pet's dental health between cleanings.
