Providing Cat and Dog Teeth Cleanings and more!

At Houston Pet Dental, locally owned and led by veterinarian Dr. Marshall Beggs, we’ve seen firsthand the negative effects a lack of routine, preventative dental care can have on dogs' and cats' quality of life. Our pets need dental care just like we do, but very few get the regular checkups and cleanings they need to prevent harmful dental diseases.

Many pet owners looking for a dog or cat dentist don’t always know where to turn. That’s where we come in. Dental care is our passion—it’s all we do—and that focus allows us to provide thorough, affordable services that cost less than a typical veterinary hospital.

With over 15 years of experience pursuing elevated dental care and raising awareness, Dr. Beggs is dedicated to making thorough dental care a reality in the Houston area. We know you want the best care for your pet, which is why we provide detailed dental assessments, in-depth cat and dog dental cleanings, and oral surgeries.

Maintaining the highest standards, we make exceptional dental care accessible to more pets. Call us at (832) 702-7599 to schedule a complimentary consultation today!

Non-Anesthetic Cleaning vs. Anesthetic Cleaning

We use safe monitored anesthetic protocols during dental cleanings to protect your pet’s airway while removing years of dental tartar accumulation allowing for a complete evaluation of their mouth. Clean teeth don’t always mean comfortable teeth. Subgingival fractured teeth, congenital impacted teeth, or painful cysts can hide beneath the gumline. In fact, pets as young as 7 months can develop impacted teeth that cause serious discomfort if left untreated.

Think about your own dental care: you wouldn’t ask the dentist to clean a painful cavity, you would want them to fix the cavity and you likely have dental X-rays taken to check for forming cavities. If X-rays are important for your own care, why wouldn’t they be just as important for your pet? Pet's can't tell us when they are in pain. They will always eat because they want to survive so let's be their advocate and make sure they are not suffering.

During an anesthetic dental procedure, we do far more than polish the surface of your pet's teeth. We’re able to clean below the gumline, take X-rays of all 42-68 root tips to identify any hidden disease or forming cancer, and treat painful problems that would otherwise go unnoticed. Anesthesia keeps your pet still and comfortable, preventing unnecessary stress and ensuring we can safely provide a thorough, comfortable cleaning.

What is a complimentary Exam

Take advantage of our complimentary dental consultation to learn more about your pet’s oral health and whether a cleaning is needed. The consultation is completely free, and if your pet requires treatment, our dental assessment and cleaning procedure is $519 (Any dog over 85 pounds will incur additional charges). This fee does not include additional services such as extractions, nail trims, or mass biopsies. For your convenience, we offer flexible payment options through Sunbit and Scratchpay, making it easier to provide your pet with the care they need.

  • It takes 10-15 minutes of your time, depending on what questions or concerns you have.

  • Brief physical exam

  • Focused oral exam

  • Discussion of oral related concerns and all issues visible and talk about the things non-visible.

  • You’ll leave with a treatment plan that includes a full explanation of the dental assessment and cleaning process, expectations, concerns, etc. Few veterinarians do this for their patients.

Creating Comfortable Mouths and Healthy Lives for Our Patients

With our thorough dental cleaning procedure, Houston Pet Dental accomplishes two critical things. First, we assess your pet’s mouth from every angle to check for unseen and painful pathologies. Then, we fully clean your pet’s teeth and gum line, removing pain-causing buildup and slowing disease. A clean mouth is important, but above all, we want your pet’s mouth to be comfortable, too.

Because we focus exclusively on dental care, it’s all we do, and it’s what we’re most passionate about. This singular focus allows us to provide high-quality care at a cost that is often much more affordable than a regular veterinary visit.

Remember, the number one sign of dental disease is no sign at all. Call (832) 702-7599 or schedule your pet's complimentary consultation online to discuss their dental needs and get a dental assessment!
