Your dog or cat's oral health is key to maintaining their overall health. Pets may adjust to living with oral pain and may not show signs of discomfort. During the oral exam, we will look at the teeth, tongue, and oral cavity. Our veterinarians and staff members are certified and trained in current techniques for animal dentistry and will suggest preventative measures to maintain your pet's oral health. With the correct preventative measures, your pet can achieve maximum oral health, preventing more serious dental disease.

Intestinal parasites, also known as worms, reside within a pet's gastrointestinal tract. The most common signs of parasite infestation are diarrhea and vomiting. Some internal parasites may also infect people. Monthly deworming treatments, generally included with monthly heartworm preventatives, can help protect your pet and your family from parasites.
Pain Management
At the Rice Lake Animal Hospital, we strive to reduce the risks associated with your pet's surgical and anesthetic procedure. To do this, our skilled staff will monitor vital signs, provide adequate pain control, intravenous fluids, and other intraoperative therapies as needed. Your pet is also closely monitored during recovery until they are fully awake by one of our knowledgeable staff members. Our surgical suite is also equipped with a class four surgical laser which aids in some of our procedures to reduce intraoperative bleeding and pain during recovery.
