Dental
EHVH utilizes technology and equipment which enables the diagnosis
and treatment (both medically and surgically) of most conditions
seen in a small animal practice.
We use a "state of the art" IM3 dental machine unit used to perform
routine dentals through to more complex procedures. It enables full
extractions and ultrasonic dental scaling and polishing, effectively
treating the most common disease affecting domestic pets –
periodontal disease.
As most canine & feline teeth are multirooted, any extractions for
all but the very loose require the tooth to be sectioned with a high
speed cutting bur in a hand piece driven by compressed air. Another
bur is used to remove bone surrounding the roots to allow for a
seamless extraction. Sutures are often placed in the gums to close
the remaining defect. Ultrasonic scaling and then tooth polishing
with single use prophy cups completes the service.
