Sometimes the smallest fragments cause the biggest problems.

This little retained root tip was preventing the inflammation in the back of this patient’s mouth from resolving. Once it was located with Cone Beam CT and removed, the redness and inflammation cleared.

Advanced imaging can make a big difference, especially when the problem is too small to easily see on radiographs alone.

You can take the veterinarian out of the office, send her to Greece for continuing education, surround her with ancient ruins… and she will still find the cats.

Dr. Sievers took most of these photos while visiting Delos, a World Heritage Site near Mykonos. Greece has a well-earned reputation for its feline residents, and the cats of Delos did not disappoint!

Tennis balls may seem harmless, but they can be surprisingly tough on teeth.

The flattened, smooth surfaces on this pet’s teeth are caused by abrasion, which happens when teeth are gradually worn down over time. With tennis balls, grit can get trapped in the fuzzy surface, making the ball act like sandpaper as your pet chews and plays.

Teeth with this kind of wear should be evaluated with dental radiographs to make sure they remain healthy below the surface.

For a more tooth-friendly option, look for smooth, non-abrasive balls that have a little give when your pet bites down. Not sure what’s best for your pet? Ask us about safer alternatives at your next visit.

Canine and feline dentistry is part of everyday primary care, but surgical extractions, radiograph interpretation, and treatment planning can still feel challenging.

This 16-hour course includes 8 hours of lecture and 8 hours of hands-on wet lab instruction with Board Certified Veterinary Dentists® Dr. Alice Sievers and Dr. Kevin Stepaniuk. Participants will review foundational dental concepts, common oral pathology, regional analgesia, intraoral radiography, mucoperiosteal flaps, surgical extractions, and more.

While our team was in Washington, DC for a recent conference, we had the chance to spend some time visiting the giant pandas at Smithsonian’s National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute

It was a treat to slow down, take in the exhibit, and enjoy watching these incredible animals do what pandas do best: snack, lounge, and make it all look effortless.

Some of our smaller patients enjoy a little extra support, comfort, and closeness while they move through their day with us. Whether they’re heading to treatment, recovering, or just enjoying the ride, Heather has them covered.

It’s practical, cozy, and honestly pretty adorable. 💙
