Maintaining a pet’s oral health is one of the most important aspects of preventive veterinary care. North Oatlands Animal Hospital has expanded its range of services to include comprehensive dental care for dogs and cats in Leesburg, VA. The initiative aims to raise awareness about the importance of early dental disease detection and routine oral cleanings to help pets live longer, healthier lives.

The hospital’s experienced veterinary team uses modern dental technology to provide safe, thorough cleanings, extractions, and oral evaluations. Regular professional dental exams help prevent issues like gum disease, tooth decay, and infections that can lead to more serious health conditions.

Dr. Valeria Rickard, practice owner and a graduate of Virginia Tech Veterinary School, leads the team with over two decades of expertise in small animal medicine and surgery. Known for her skill in minimally invasive surgical techniques and her passion for compassionate care, Dr. Rickard emphasizes the connection between oral health and overall wellness.

Supporting Dr. Rickard is Dr. Arden J. Gillespie, Lead Veterinarian, who brings over 20 years of experience in small animal general practice and emergency care. Dr. Gillespie’s background in preventive care and advanced clinical operations enhances the hospital’s ability to provide top-quality dental services for every pet.

At North Oatlands Animal Hospital, each dental procedure is tailored to the pet’s individual needs. Services include ultrasonic scaling, polishing, digital dental X-rays, and treatment for periodontal disease—all performed with a gentle, low-stress approach.
