Cat Tooth Resorption Treatment in San Jose

Is Your Cat Chattering or Dropping Food?

Treatment in San Jose Tooth resorption is the most common dental disease in cats — and one of the most painful. ARCH Veterinary in San Jose diagnoses FORLs with full-mouth dental X-rays and treats them with extraction or crown amputation under modern, monitored anesthesia. Resorptive lesions often hide below the gum line. A perfectly normal-looking tooth on an awake exam can show massive root destruction on dental X-ray. That's why ARCH includes full-mouth radiographs on every feline dental — it's the only way to find Type 2 lesions, which are the most common kind.
