Pet Dentistry

Your pet should be fasted overnight the night before the procedure—no food after midnight. Please provide water at all times.

A drop-off appointment for surgery will be scheduled at 7:30 am. Please plan to be here for about 10 minutes for your pet’s surgery admission. We will go over important paperwork, including consent forms and estimates, at that time. If you are not the one dropping off your pet, please have paperwork filled out ahead of time. We can send this information to you via email, or it can be filled out in person prior to the scheduled day.

We do not schedule the order of procedures until that morning. We decide who will go first based on age, illness, and several other factors. In general, our first procedure starts at 8:30 am, and the last procedure usually starts around 12:30 pm.

When you drop off your pet in the morning, you will be given a discharge time. When you arrive at the clinic for your pet’s discharge, a nurse will go over detailed instructions for home care and medications. The nurse will answer any questions you have at this time. If your pet needs to come back for a recheck, we will schedule the appointment at this time.

Payment is due at the time of service. We do not offer payment plans. We accept all major credit cards, cash, or Care Credit. We do not accept checks. If paying with Care Credit, you must provide two forms of I.D. This is Care Credit’s policy. Forms of I.D must be a driver’s license or state I.D and another credit/debit card with your name on it. The second card’s number will not be recorded. They only ask for the card holder’s name, the expiration, and the type of card to be recorded. A spouse cannot bring a card in for you. The cardholder must be present at the time of the transaction. If you cannot be the one here at discharge, you may make special arrangements with us to collect payment prior to discharge.
