Our Professionals Give Your Pets The Best Treatment For Routine Dental Work And Surgery

Dental Care And Hygiene

Dental health is an essential part of your pet's care, and Franklin Veterinary Associates recognizes the impactful components of good dental health.

Preventing a dental problem is always better than having to treat it. We recommend several things as part of your pet's preventative dental health plan.

Brushing A Dog's Teeth — Greencastle, PA — Franklin Veterinary Associates

Chews/Treats: we recommend and carry OraVet Chews, one of the few dental treatments clinically proven to reduce plaque and improve breath.
Brushing the teeth: considered by many veterinary dental experts to be the best way to keep the teeth healthy, we recommend and carry pet-specific toothbrushes and toothpaste.
Dental Diets: specific prescription veterinary diets like Purina DH Dental Diet are beneficial in cleaning the teeth and gums.
Routine Dental: one of the best ways to keep your pet’s mouth healthy is to schedule regular cleanings to remove plaque and mild infections before they cause health problems.

Routine And Emergency Surgeries That Promote Quick Recovery Turnaround Time For Your Pet

The veterinarians at our hospital are skilled in many types of routine and emergency soft tissue and dental surgeries. We perform spays, neuters, abdominal surgery, tumor removal surgery, biopsies, surgeries of the eyes and ears, dental surgeries such as tooth extractions, and many more.

Our doctors develop anesthesia and pain management plans specific to the needs of each pet, using many of the latest and safest anesthetics. Your pet is monitored closely before surgery, during the procedure, and after surgery until discharge time.

The surgical suite at our hospital is similar to what you would see in a human hospital. We encourage you to take a tour anytime. Heated surgery tables keep your pet warm, which helps with quicker recovery from surgery. During surgical procedures, monitors assess oxygen levels, heart rate, breathing rate, blood pressure, temperature, and continuous ECG. Knowing these help your surgery team keep your pet safer under anesthesia and allows your pet to recover from surgery more smoothly and with less pain.
