🦷 Why Pet Dentistry Matters More Than You Think! 🦷

Today we saw a sweet 13-year-old Schnauzer for a routine dental cleaning. On her initial exam, we could only see some tartar and plaque. Once under anesthesia, however, we were able to perform a full oral exam, probing, and dental x-rays… and what we found was eye-opening. Beneath the tartar, a small cavity at the gum line revealed significant bone loss within her canine tooth — something that simply can’t be seen without x-rays.

For comparison, you can see her healthy canine on the opposite side in the second image.

This hidden damage was likely painful, even though she showed no obvious signs at home. Pets are incredibly good at hiding discomfort — which is why regular dental cleanings and dental x-rays are so important for detecting issues early and keeping them comfortable long-term. ❤️

🪥 If it’s been over a year since your pet’s last dental cleaning or you’ve noticed bad breath, drooling, or buildup on their teeth, it may be time for a dental consult.

🎉🐾 Happy 10th Birthday to Lily! 🐾🎉

2 years ago, when Dr. Zach and Morgan adopted Lily, she weighed nearly 50 lbs and was struggling with morbid obesity. With dedication, love, and a strict weight loss plan using Royal Canin’s Satiety diet, Lily shed 25 lbs—and now she’s thriving, energetic, and truly living her best life. 💪🐶❤️

Did you know? 👉 Dogs maintained at a healthy weight live an average of 2 years longer than their overweight counterparts. That’s more birthdays, more adventures, and more special moments together. 🎂✨

If your pet could benefit from a healthier lifestyle, our team is here to help. Call us today to schedule an appointment and let’s create a personalized weight loss plan to keep your furry friend feeling their best!

🔎 Case Spotlight:

A sweet Corgi patient presented with blood in her urine, and after Dr. Zach’s exam, urinalysis, and X-rays, we discovered a large collection of bladder stones (see impressive x-ray 👉).

Bladder stones can form for a variety of reasons, including:
⚠️ Recurrent urinary tract infections
⚠️ Certain diets or imbalances in urine chemistry
⚠️ Underlying metabolic conditions

Common signs to watch for at home:
🐾 Straining to urinate
🐾 Frequent urination or accidents in the house
🐾 Blood in the urine
🐾 Discomfort or restlessness

Dr. Melisa performed surgery to remove the stones and our patient is now on the road to recovery. ❤️🐶✨
