🦷 When was your pet’s last dental check?

Dental disease can develop gradually and our pets aren't always great at telling us when something is bothering them.

A dental check with your vet can help identify issues early - particularly if you've noticed changes in their breath, chewing, appetite or the appearance of their teeth. 🐶🐱

If your pet is due for a dental, our current dental offer is still available. The important date is 30 𝐒𝐞𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫. Your pet just needs to have their no-charge dental assessment completed by then.

The dental procedure itself can be booked for a later date, so there’s no need to rush your pet into an appointment just to meet the offer deadline.

💙 $100 off eligible dental procedures
💙 $250 off for Best for Pet members

If you're unsure whether your pet would benefit from a dental, speak with our team and we can arrange their no-charge assessment. 🐾

🎉 GREAT NEWS - OUR DENTAL OFFER HAS BEEN EXTENDED! 🦷🐾

You asked and we’ve extended our dental promotion until 30 September 2026! ❤️

Dental disease is incredibly common in our pets and because they’re experts at hiding pain, problems can be well underway before we notice anything is wrong.

That’s why a FREE dental check is such a great opportunity to get your pet’s teeth and gums checked and find any concerns early. 🐶🐱✨

And if your pet does need dental treatment, you can save too!

🦷 Did you know? Around 80% of dogs and cats have some level of dental disease by the age of 3. 😮

The surprising part? Most owners have no idea because our pets are incredibly good at hiding pain.

Don't wait until there's bad breath, difficulty eating or obvious discomfort. A quick dental check could uncover problems before they become painful (and expensive) to treat.
