🦷🐾 Dental Month is just around the corner!

September is Dental Month, so we thought ...Maverick had perfect timing when he came in today for his annual dental! 🐶✨

Ever wondered what actually happens when your pet comes in for a dental? Maverick is taking you behind the scenes! 🎥

During his dental procedure, our team performed:

🩻 Full-mouth dental X-rays — because a large portion of dental disease can be hiding below the gumline where we can’t see it.

🦷 A thorough scale — removing plaque and hardened tartar from above and below the gumline.

✨ A professional polish using our new dental machine — leaving those pearly whites smooth, clean and shiny!

❤️ A complete oral assessment — checking each tooth and the surrounding gums for signs of disease, damage or anything that may be causing discomfort.

Regular dental checks and professional cleans are an important part of looking after both dogs AND cats. 🐶🐱

They can help:
• Prevent and manage periodontal disease
• Reduce plaque, tartar and bad breath 🤭
• Identify painful or damaged teeth early
• Detect problems hiding beneath the gumline with dental X-rays
• Reduce the risk of infection and tooth loss
• Keep your pet’s mouth comfortable and healthy long-term ❤️

And remember… pets can be VERY good at hiding dental pain. They may continue eating even when they have significant dental disease!

🗓️ Dental Month is coming this September!

Lottie came in for her lap spay and did beautifully. ✨ During recovery, we caught Dr Jacob ...sneaking in some post-op cuddles behind the scenes. We suspect Lottie may have been his favourite patient of the day. 🐶💕
