Dentistry Petersburg, FL

Dentistry

Dental care is vital to the overall health of any pet. Dental disease can lead to health issues with the heart, liver, and kidneys and has the potential to seep into your pet’s bloodstream. In fact, 80 percent of dogs and 70 percent of cats over three years of age suffer from some form of dental disease, making it the most common pet health issue among our pet population. We offer full-service dentistry including digital dental X-rays, cleaning, and extractions when necessary.

X-rays Petersburg, FL

X-rays

Full digital radiology is a diagnostic tool that allows us to look inside the body in an entirely non-invasive way. X-rays allow us to create images of all the body's organs. Digital means that it can be rapidly obtained and re-taken when necessary to ensure the best image is captured, without having to develop film in between.

Ultrasound Petersburg, FL

Ultrasound

Ultrasound uses sound waves to offer a non-invasive, painless, and radiation-free method of imaging your pets' internal organs. It allows us to see “inside” of all of the abdominal organs. It is often used in conjunction with an X-ray to determine the location and nature of any interior problems. We offer full diagnostic abdominal ultrasound on-site.

All healing begins at a cellular level. Laser therapy uses near infrared light to provide increased blood flow and increased oxygen to cells, which results in cellular bio-stimulation.

  • CHRONIC AND ACUTE PAIN MANAGEMENT
