Veterinary Dentistry Training
This dog had a non anesthetic teeth cleaning every year for 5 years. The teeth looked very clean. The dog came to our clinic (Arizona Veterinary Dental Specialists) www.azvetdentists.com when the teeth were noticed to be mobile. After full mouth radiographs, the real problem was revealed.... and it was below the gum-line!!! Poor dog had 18 teeth extracted. Look at all that tartar on the root. This demonstrates the pitfalls of non anesthetic teeth cleanings. Without being able to clean below the gum-line or take dental X-rays, cleaning just the crown is useless. Spread the word!
