What exactly is involved in a feline dental procedure? 🐱🦷

When we perform a dental procedure on your pet, we do so under a full general anaesthetic to minimise their stress and facilitate the most thorough exam (as your cat won’t “open wide” voluntarily!)

Depending on your cat’s particular condition, we may then take dental x-rays to check their tooth root health and will perform a recorded examination of all teeth known as “charting”. After this, we’ll get down to the business of cleaning and any necessary extractions (performed with numbing nerve blocks just like in people).

For more information on our thorough and gentle dental care, don’t hesitate to consult our friendly team! 👩‍⚕️👨‍⚕️

Did you know that greyhounds have a breed-related risk of abnormal bleeding after surgical or dental procedures? 🐕‍🦺

It is estimated that up to 30% of greyhounds might experience delayed bleeding in the 36-48 hours after surgery (or trauma) due to a condition known as fibrinolytic syndrome, which causes the premature weakening of blood clots over sites of bleeding, before they can heal.

The good news? We can help prevent issues with the administration of a clot-supporting medication to greyhounds before/during and after surgery. Hooray!

For more information on how we can help to support your pet during surgeries, consult our scalpel-safe team. 💬

Pyometra

Pyometra is a serious and potentially life-threatening uterine infection that commonly affects unspayed female dogs and, less frequently, cats. It occurs due to hormonal changes during the estrous cycle, which can cause the uterine lining to thicken and become more susceptible to bacterial infection. The condition is typically seen in older animals and may present in two forms: open (with vaginal discharge) or closed (no discharge, making it more dangerous).

Symptoms include:
🩺lethargy
🩺vomiting
🩺increased thirst and urination
🩺abdominal swelling
🩺 vaginal discharge
🩺 vaginal swelling

Pyometra requires veterinary treatment, often involving surgical removal of the uterus and ovaries (spay surgery) and medications 💊.

If you are concerned or worried about your canine or feline friend, call our clinic on 4061 2590, and our friendly team will promptly help ☺️.

“Can my pet have a dental clean performed at the same time as their desexing procedure?” 🤔

Whilst we understand the temptation of combining procedures under one visit, it’s usually safest for your pet to have these procedures performed separately.

This is because dental scaling (tooth cleaning with an ultrasonic cleaner) releases aerosolised bacteria into the air, which could increase your pet’s risk of nasty post-operative infection within their abdomen or desexing wound.

For more information on safe pet dentistry and surgery, consult our knowledgeable team.

Oof, is your cat’s breath getting unpleasantly stinky? 😼💨

The most common cause of bad breath in cats is dental disease, as plaque and tartar build up on the teeth and beneath the gumline and sequester pongy bacteria.

Less commonly, bad breath in cats can be caused by ulcers or tumours in the mouth, or general health conditions such as kidney disease, illnesses that cause vomiting, or metabolic issues such as diabetes.

So, if you notice that your cat’s breath is on the whiffy side, take a deep breath and head to our clinic for some professional help!
