Stop watching your pet suffer in silence. Our gentle extraction procedures eliminate pain, prevent dangerous infections, and restore your pet’s joy in eating often the very same day.
You’ve noticed the signs. Maybe your dog winces when chewing. Perhaps your cat has stopped grooming or has breath that could clear a room. Or worse, you’ve spotted a swollen face or bloody drool. These aren’t just “old age” symptoms; they’re cries for help from teeth that have become sources of constant pain and infection.
Here’s what most pet parents don’t realize: pets ALWAYS feel and eat better once diseased teeth are removed from their mouths. That broken tooth isn’t just uncomfortable; it’s a highway for bacteria to enter your pet’s bloodstream, potentially damaging their heart, kidneys, and liver.
When a tooth can’t be saved, a gentle extraction ends the pain. Here’s how we keep your pet safe and comfortable.
Not every damaged tooth needs extraction. But when infection has invaded the root, when fractures expose sensitive nerves, or when severe periodontal disease has destroyed supporting bone, removal becomes the path to relief.
We extract teeth when:
The decision is never taken lightly. But when a tooth becomes a source of suffering rather than function, extraction offers immediate relief and prevents life-threatening complications.
Every extraction begins with comprehensive preparation:
Your pet feels nothing during the procedure and minimal discomfort after:
Unlike human teeth, which will shift if one tooth is extracted, dog or cat teeth do not shift, allowing us to focus on careful extraction without worrying about alignment issues. We:
Your pet should begin recovering from the anaesthetic within a few hours, though it can take 24-48 hours to fully recover What to Expect When Your Pet Goes Under Anesthesia. Most pets:
Here’s what surprises most pet parents: Most dogs or cats will eat the night of the veterinary dental procedure or the following morning. We recommend:
Dogs typically heal from a tooth extraction 10 to 14 days after the procedure. During this time:

Safe Surgical Dental Extractions
Because no pet should suffer from tooth pain in silence.
If you can’t find what you’re looking for, our support team is always ready to assist you. Your pets health, our priority anytime, anywhere.
Age isn’t a disease. We customize anesthesia for seniors using pre-surgical bloodwork and special protocols. Many 15+ year old pets do beautifully. The real risk? Leaving infected teeth that damage heart and kidneys. Healthy seniors handle anesthesia well.
They’ll eat better without painful teeth! Dogs and cats don’t chew like humans—they gulp. Many toothless pets happily eat dry kibble using their gums. Most patients eat enthusiastically the night of surgery. No teeth beats painful teeth every time.
Most bounce back within 24 hours. With our pain management protocol (pre-meds, 24-hour nerve blocks, take-home relief), pets feel better after surgery than before. Many eat that same night. Full healing takes 10-14 days, but personality returns fast.
Anesthesia is non-negotiable for safe extraction. “Anesthesia-free” only scrapes visible tartar while your pet is stressed and restrained. No X-rays, no pain control, no real treatment. It’s like painting over rust. We follow AAHA standards—anesthesia keeps your pet pain-free and safe.
X-rays reveal the truth: 60% of each tooth is hidden below the gum. Surface appearance lies. We X-ray first, then call you with findings. A “decent” looking tooth might have infected roots. We explain everything and never extract without your permission.
At Morgan Hill Animal Hospital, we provide a full range of services to keep your pets healthy
Full-mouth X-rays reveal hidden disease below the gumline that a visual exam alone can miss.
Ultrasonic scaling and polishing that removes plaque and tartar above and below the gumline.
Root-canal-style crown repair that saves a broken tooth instead of pulling it.
