In 2014, after 6 years in a referral practice in Flower Mound, Texas, Dr. Carter started Companion Animal Dental Solutions to make advanced treatment more convenient for pet owners and to increase awareness among veterinary team members by providing services in multiple clinics in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.

His unique approach provided him the opportunity to work in over 60 veterinary practices from 2014 to 2016, educating pet owners, veterinarians and support staff on the common nature of oral diseases and the importance of safe and effective care.  He started commuting to Rohnert Park, California every other week in May of 2016 before deciding to settle down there in November of the same year.   In addition to treating complicated cases, Dr. Carter also travels the United States consulting with clinics to improve dental care and often speaks to groups on the importance of excellent dental care for companion animals.  In 2019, he became a Diplomate of the American Veterinary Dental College, earning the title of  Veterinary Dental Specialist.

Dr. Carter is currently seeing patients full time in Northern California at VCA Animal Care Center of Sonoma County.

Companion Animal Dental Solutions was founded by Dr. Chris M. Carter out of a desire to help veterinarians, pet owners and their beloved furry companions.  Dr. Carter graduated from Oklahoma State University College of Veterinary Medicine in 1999 with no training in dentistry.

In 2004, he began to recognize the overwhelming number of his patients that had painful mouths and starting pursuing training in this under-served area.

In 2010, he became a Fellow of the Academy of Veterinary Dentistry and now only treats dental and oral conditions in dogs and cats and an occasional bear, gorilla or tiger.
