In this tutorial Dr Leigh shares everything that vets do in dog & cat dentistry treatments.
We cover why dogs and cats need dental care for their overall health and how we can provide this via both at home treatments and vet care.
An important part of this tutorial is highlighting the key differences between a vet performed dental scale and polish and a cosmetic cleaning that is performed anaesthesia free.
Vets do NOT condone anesthesia-free dentistry and you will learn why.
