What Is Pet Dentistry?
Just like humans, pets build up plaque and tartar on their teeth from their everyday meals. Without regular care, that buildup can develop into infections, resulting in pain and discomfort in the mouth. These infections may even travel through the bloodstream and affect inner organs like the heart and kidneys, meaning regular care and cleanings are essential for both your pet’s oral health and their overall well-being.
As a trusted pet dental clinic serving Kansas City (both Missouri and Kansas), Overland Park, and surrounding areas, South Kansas City Mobile Veterinary Clinic specializes in cat and dog dental cleanings, tooth extractions, and more—delivered with advanced tools and a gentle touch.

Why Dental Care Matters
Poor dental health can lead to serious health issues, including infection, organ damage, and chronic pain. Studies show that over 80% of pets over age three have some form of dental disease.
The good news? Most of this is entirely preventable with thorough routine care.
Regular dental care helps prevent:
- Tooth decay and gum disease
- Oral infections and bad breath
- Painful chewing and eating issues
- Risk of systemic health complications
Benefits of Dental Care with a Mobile Vet:
- Full-service dental care right at your door
- Ongoing dental health education and prevention tips
- Less stress and travel for pets
- Safer, more comfortable recovery
