Veterinary Dentistry in Owego NY for Cats & Dogs

At Day Hollow Animal Hospital, we believe every pet deserves a healthy, pain-free mouth. Whether it’s your dog’s first dental cleaning or your senior cat’s annual checkup, we provide compassionate, thorough dental care tailored to your pet’s needs.

Dental Health Is More Than Cosmetic

Preventing Disease Starts with the Mouth

Studies show that up to 80% of pets develop periodontal disease by age 3. Without routine dental care, plaque and tartar can accumulate, leading to gum inflammation, infection, tooth loss, and even problems affecting the heart, liver, or kidneys.
Common signs of dental disease include:
  • Bad breath
  • Difficulty eating or chewing
  • Drooling or pawing at the mouth
  • Discolored teeth or visible tartar
  • Swollen or bleeding gums
If your pet is showing any of these signs—or if they’re due for an annual dental exam—we’re here to help.

Professional Dog and Cat Dental Cleanings

Our veterinary dentistry services go far beyond a visual check. Each pet dental cleaning is performed under anesthesia and includes:

  • Full-mouth oral exam by a veterinarian
  • Scaling and polishing to remove plaque and tartar
  • Digital dental X-rays to detect disease below the gumline
  • Extractions if needed, with pain management protocols
  • Post-cleaning home care recommendations and product guidance

Every dental patient is monitored closely throughout the procedure to ensure safety and comfort.
