Pet Dental X-Ray Services

Seeing Beneath the Surface for Better Oral Health

At Brentwood Veterinary Center, we take your pet’s dental health seriously. That’s why we offer digital dental X-rays as a key part of our comprehensive dental care. These high-resolution images allow us to detect hidden problems below the gumline—where over 60% of dental disease lives.

Why Dental X-Rays Matter

Just like in human dentistry, dental X-rays are essential for identifying issues that can’t be seen during a visual exam alone. They help us evaluate the roots, bone, and internal structures of the teeth so we can diagnose and treat problems early—before they become painful or more serious.

Dental X-Rays Help Us Detect

• Broken or fractured teeth
• Root infections or abscesses
• Tooth resorption
• Impacted or unerupted teeth
• Bone loss from periodontal disease
• Retained baby teeth
• Oral tumors or jaw abnormalities

When Are Dental X-Rays Performed?

Dental X-rays are taken during your pet’s professional dental cleaning while they are under anesthesia. This allows us to safely and thoroughly examine all areas of the mouth without stress or discomfort.

X-rays are especially important if:

• Your pet has missing or mobile teeth
• We are evaluating a fractured tooth
• A tooth extraction is planned
• Your pet has signs of oral pain or infection
• This is your pet’s first dental cleaning or has a history of dental disease

The Benefits of Digital Imaging

Our digital dental X-ray system provides immediate, high-quality images with minimal radiation exposure. These images help us make precise, informed decisions—resulting in better outcomes and more effective treatment plans.

A Healthier Mouth Starts with a Clear View

Dental X-rays allow us to uncover hidden problems and ensure your pet’s mouth is truly healthy—not just on the surface.
