A Higher Standard in Glen Ellyn, IL for Veterinary Dental Care

When your dog or cat needs advanced dental care or oral surgery, you deserve the best care available for your loving pet. We provide clear answers, careful communication, and a team that treats your pet’s comfort, safety, and outcome with the attention they deserve.

Advanced Veterinary Dental Care and Oral Surgery was created to bring a more personal kind of specialty care to Glen Ellyn and the greater Chicagoland area. Our practice combines advanced technology, board-certified expertise, and a privately owned approach that keeps the focus where it belongs: on the pet in front of us, the family who loves them, and the veterinarian who trusted us with their care.

Specialty Care With a Personal Touch

Advanced Veterinary Dental Care and Oral Surgery is not a traditional veterinary clinic, and we are not designed to replace your primary veterinarian. We are here for the dental and oral surgery cases that need a deeper level of training, technology, and treatment planning.

Led by Dr. Laura Sasser, DVM, Diplomate of the American Veterinary Dental College, our animal hospital provides advanced dental and oral surgery services for dogs and cats, including specialized imaging, precise oral surgery, reconstructive procedures, and much more.

Our goal is to provide the advanced care your pet needs while supporting the relationship you already have with your family veterinarian.

What Sets Us Apart

Every part of our practice has been designed with intention, from our technology and treatment protocols to how we communicate with pet owners and referring veterinarians.

Privately Owned, Family-Run

We are proud to be locally rooted and privately owned. That means decisions are made close to home by people who are personally invested in the pets, families, and veterinary community we serve.

For pet owners, that means a more personal experience. For referring veterinarians, it means responsive communication, a collaborative mindset, and a specialty team that respects your role in the patient’s lifelong care.

Advanced Dentistry and Oral Surgery for Dogs and Cats

Dental disease, oral trauma, jaw injuries, tumors, and complex tooth problems require more than a surface-level exam. Our practice is built specifically for veterinary dental and oral surgery care, allowing us to focus deeply on the structures of the mouth, teeth, jaws, and face.

This focused approach helps us diagnose hidden problems, plan treatment with precision, and provide care tailored to each pet’s needs.

Board-Certified Expertise

A Board Certified Veterinary Dentist® has completed advanced training beyond veterinary school and met the rigorous standards of the American Veterinary Dental College. For pets with complex dental or oral surgery needs, that added training matters.

Dr. Sasser brings advanced knowledge, surgical skill, and a careful approach to cases that may include fractured teeth, painful malocclusions, oral masses, jaw fractures, tooth resorption, periodontal disease, and other complex conditions.

Technology That Helps Us See More

Many oral health problems hide below the gumline, inside the tooth, or within the bone. That is why advanced imaging is central to our care.

Our specialty animal hospital uses cone beam CT and high-definition digital dental radiography to evaluate teeth, roots, bone, nerves, nasal structures, and surrounding anatomy in greater detail. This allows us to plan procedures more carefully, identify problems that may not be visible during an exam, and share important imaging information with your primary veterinarian.

Collaboration With Your Primary Veterinarian

We see ourselves as an extension of your pet’s veterinary care team. Your primary veterinarian knows your pet’s history, health, and long-term needs. Our role is to provide advanced dental and oral surgery care when your pet needs treatment beyond routine services.

For referring veterinarians, our goal is to make the referral process easier and more transparent. Through referral forms, record uploads, case communication, and follow-up updates, we work to keep your team informed before, during, and after treatment.
