At Castro Valley Animal Hospital, we know dental health is one of the most overlooked parts of pet care — and cost is often the reason. We offer thorough, professional dental care at affordable prices, because healthy teeth and gums mean less pain, fewer health problems, and a longer, happier life for your pet.

Dental problems can also affect their appetite, behavior, and even contribute to serious systemic conditions.

Our Dental Cleaning Approach

• Always under general anesthesia, so we can examine, clean, and polish every tooth thoroughly and safely
• Scaling and polishing, above and below the gumline
• A full oral exam, with dental X-rays when indicated
• Extractions during the same procedure when needed, so your pet doesn’t need a second anesthesia and visit
• In-house lab testing before anesthesia

Dental Care Every Family Can Manage

Most dogs and cats show signs of dental disease by age three, yet many go untreated because of cost. From routine cleanings to extractions, we keep dental care within reach. Ask us for a quote at your pet’s next visit. We also accept CareCredit.
