Healthy teeth and gums support your pet’s overall well-being
Good oral health is about more than a clean smile—it plays an important role in your pet’s total health. At Maynard Animal Hospital, we provide comprehensive dental care for dogs and cats in Cary, NC, helping protect teeth and gums while supporting long-term wellness.
Our dental services combine routine preventive cleanings with advanced treatment options to address dental disease early and reduce the risk of pain, infection, and related health issues. With attentive care and modern techniques, we’re here to keep your pet comfortable and healthy from mouth to tail.

Comprehensive Dental Cleaning Services
Thorough dental care and prevention for lasting oral health
Our professional dental cleanings go far beyond removing visible plaque. At Maynard Animal Hospital, we begin with digital dental X-rays to evaluate what’s happening beneath the gumline and uncover issues that may not be visible during a surface exam.
We then perform a detailed cleaning above and below the gums using advanced ultrasonic tools. The process is completed with polishing—and additional protective treatments when appropriate—to help slow future buildup and support strong, healthy teeth and gums.
Comprehensive Oral Health Evaluation
Every dental visit starts with a detailed examination
Each dental appointment at Maynard Animal Hospital begins with a thorough assessment of your pet’s mouth. We examine the teeth, gums, tongue, and surrounding tissues to look for signs of disease or injury. This careful evaluation allows us to identify concerns early and develop a treatment plan tailored to your pet’s specific needs.
At-Home Dental Care Guidance
Daily habits between cleanings can make a lasting impact
We provide hands-on guidance to help you maintain your pet’s oral health at home. Our team will demonstrate effective brushing techniques and recommend at-home care strategies that fit your lifestyle. When appropriate, we may also suggest dental diets, chews, and other products designed to support oral health and reduce plaque and tartar buildup between professional cleanings.
