Your Cat’s Dental Cleaning: What to Expect
Step 1
Schedule a Dental Consult
Talk with your veterinarian at your next visit, or schedule a dental consultation. We'll examine your cat’s teeth and gums to check for signs of dental disease and determine whether a cleaning or further treatment is needed. If so, we’ll walk you through the next steps and provide an estimate up front.
Step 2
Pre-Procedure Screening
Before the cleaning, we’ll schedule pre-surgical bloodwork to confirm that your cat is healthy enough for anesthesia. This is a critical step in ensuring safe, high-quality care tailored to your cat, especially when you’re looking for trusted cat dental services in Austin.
Step 3
Dental Cleaning Day
On the day of the procedure, your cat will be placed under general anesthesia. This allows us to conduct a full oral exam, clean thoroughly below the gum line, and take full-mouth digital X-rays — essential for spotting hidden issues like root damage or bone loss. If advanced dental disease is present, oral surgery may be necessary. Our experienced surgical team is fully equipped to manage this with safety and precision.
We use ultrasonic tools to remove plaque and tartar buildup, followed by polishing and rinsing to clean and protect the teeth.
Step 4
Charting and Monitoring
Every tooth is charted to track current condition and long-term dental health. Throughout the process, your cat’s vitals are carefully monitored by our trained technicians to ensure safety and comfort at every stage.
Step 5
Recovery
After the procedure, your cat is placed in a warm, quiet recovery area where they’ll be closely monitored as they wake up. Our team ensures their comfort and stability before discharge.
Step 6
Post-Procedure Communication
Your veterinarian will contact you with a full update on how the procedure went, along with any follow-up recommendations. When you arrive to pick up your cat, a technician will review post-care instructions and answer any questions.
We Got You, Austin — with expert dental care that keeps your cat healthy from the inside out.
