Periodontal Surgeries for Pets
Heron Lakes Animal Hospital seeks to comprehensively treat all aspects of your pet’s oral health, including protecting against periodontal disease. This condition can cause discomfort and lead to serious health issues if left untreated, which is why we offer specialized periodontal surgeries to ensure your pet’s mouth is as healthy as it can be.
What is Periodontal Surgery?
Periodontal surgery involves the treatment of advanced gum disease that cannot be managed through routine cleanings alone. This surgery is designed to address severe periodontal issues, such as gum recession, bone loss, or infection, to restore your pet’s oral health and comfort.
Benefits of Periodontal Surgery
• Alleviates pain and discomfort caused by gum disease
• Prevents further deterioration of teeth and gums
• Reduces the risk of oral infections spreading to other parts of the body
• Enhances your pet’s quality of life with improved oral health
• Helps preserve your pet’s natural teeth
Is My Pet a Candidate for Periodontal Surgery?
Your pet may be a candidate for periodontal surgery if they show signs of advanced gum disease, such as persistent bad breath, swollen or bleeding gums, difficulty eating, or loose teeth. A thorough dental examination by our experienced veterinarians will determine if surgery is necessary to address your pet’s oral health needs.
