Dogs have four different types of teeth, and each one has an important job! 🐶

🦷 Incisors – The little front teeth, used for nibbling, grooming and picking things up.

🐺 Canines – Those long, pointed teeth used for gripping and tearing. These teeth have long roots and play a very important role!

🥩 Premolars – Used for chewing and cutting food.

💪 Molars - The large teeth at the back of the mouth, designed for crushing and grinding.

One particularly important tooth is the upper fourth premolar, also known as the carnassial tooth. This is one of the largest teeth in your dog's mouth and does a lot of the hard work when chewing!

🌈 Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day 🐾

Today, we remember the pets who may no longer be by our side, but who will forever remain in our hearts.

We know saying goodbye to a beloved pet is one of the hardest experiences a family can go through. Our priority is to make this experience as gentle, peaceful and compassionate as possible, giving you and your beloved companion the love, care and dignity you both deserve.

Today, we honour the beautiful souls we have loved and lost. Until we meet again at the Rainbow Bridge 🌈🤍🐾

Dental Before & After 🦷✨

These beautiful teeth are from a 3 year old Jack Russell who came in to see us for a dental scale and polish 🐾🦷

Smaller breeds can be particularly prone to dental disease. Their smaller mouths mean their teeth are often crowded closely together, making it easier for plaque and tartar to build up...

🐾 Happy International Dog Day! 🐾

There’s something truly special about the connection between dogs and people. ❤️

The bond we see every day between dogs and their families is fascinating, built on trust, companionship, loyalty and a whole lot of unconditional love.

🐾Their little (or big) wagging tails that greet you at the door.

🐾The quiet comfort of a dog just being by your side.

🐾The way they become such an important part of our lives and hearts.

They are truly special and today, we celebrate all that they are!

Let's see in the comments, your loved dogs that have made an impact on your life🐾❤️

Minnie came to see us for a dental! 🦷🐾

She absolutely loved being wrapped up in her blanket whilst she recovered.

Now she’s ready to show off those pearly whites! ✨🦷🐶

A microchip is only as useful as the information attached to it. ❤️

If your pet ever goes missing, the first thing we do is scan their microchip. If your phone number or address is out of date, we may not be able to contact you, even if your pet has been safely found.

Keeping your details updated is important for you and for us. It means that when a lost or injured pet arrives at our clinic, we have the best possible chance of getting them back home to you quickly. 🏡🐶🐱

Have you moved house? Changed your phone number? Or even got a new email address?

If you’ve lost your pet’s microchip paperwork or details, we can look up the microchip company/registry your pet is registered with. There are a few different microchip registries, and you can update your contact details directly with the relevant company.

While we’re unable to update the microchip details on your behalf, we’re more than happy to talk you through the process and help you get everything updated.

💚 A few minutes updating your details could make all the difference if your pet ever gets lost.

🧸 Finding a tiny kitten tooth is actually pretty rare!

Most kittens swallow their baby teeth when they fall out, and that's usually completely normal and harmless. So actually finding a kitten tooth is a little treasure.

🦷 Why do we recommend dental X-rays for pets?

Did you know that around 60% of a tooth is hidden below the gumline? That means a tooth can look perfectly healthy on the surface while disease is developing underneath.

Dental X-rays help us detect problems we simply can't see during an oral examination, including:
• Hidden tooth root infections
• Bone loss from periodontal disease
• Fractured tooth roots
• Retained baby teeth
• Tooth resorption (especially common in cats)

Without X-rays, these painful conditions can easily go unnoticed.

Dental X-rays allow us to diagnose issues accurately, treat the right teeth, and help keep your pet comfortable and pain free.

🦷 What is plaque?

Plaque is a soft, sticky film made up of millions of bacteria that constantly forms on your pet's teeth. After eating, these bacteria feed on food particles and produce acids and toxins that irritate the gums.

If plaque isn't removed by brushing, it hardens into tartar (calculus), which can't be brushed away and usually requires a dental scale and polish under anaesthetic.

🔬 What does plaque look like under the microscope?

Under a microscope, plaque isn't just "dirt", it's a busy community of bacteria. You'll see thousands of tiny bacteria in different shapes, all mixed together in a sticky biofilm. As plaque matures, more harmful bacteria move in, increasing the risk of gum disease, bad breath, pain and tooth loss.

The good news is that Plaque is easiest to remove before it hardens. Regular tooth brushing and dental care can make a huge difference to your pet's oral health.
