Signs & Symptoms

Your pet’s teeth and gums may be trying to tell you something. Watch for these signs of dental issues:

  • Bad breath (more than typical “doggy breath”)

  • Red, swollen, or bleeding gums

  • Yellow or brown tartar buildup

  • Difficulty eating or chewing

  • Drooling excessively

  • Loose or missing teeth

If you notice any of these symptoms, schedule a dental checkup right away. Early intervention can save your pet from discomfort and prevent further health problems.

Nova Pets Dental Services

Dental Examinations

We perform detailed oral exams to check for signs of decay, infection, or injury. Using advanced diagnostic tools, we can identify potential issues before they become major problems.

Anesthesia-Free Care

For pets that qualify, this approach—known as "awake" or "conscious" dentistry—can yield faster recovery times and is suitable for pets with minimal dental tarter and health issues or age-related concerns.

Our professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup, helping to prevent gum disease and tooth decay. Under anesthesia, we safely and thoroughly clean your pet’s teeth, including below the gumline, where bacteria can hide.

Advanced Dental Treatments

When dental disease or injury requires more than a routine cleaning, our skilled veterinary team is equipped to provide:

  • Tooth extractions

  • Treatment for fractured or broken teeth

  • Gum disease management

  • Oral surgery for more complex cases
