Small husbandry choices can make a big difference to your lizard’s health. Common causes of dental disease include:
🥭 Diets high in fruit and soft foods
⚡ Suboptimal heating or UV lighting
💥 Mouth trauma
⏳ Age and pre-existing disease

🐉 Prevention is always better than cure!
✅ Feed the right diet for their species
✅ Provide the correct heat, UV and enclosure setup
✅ Keep their habitat clean
✅ Talk to us about how to introduce gentle tooth brushing with chlorhexidine to reduce plaque and bacteria

Our team can guide you in every step to keep your dragon’s mouth healthy.

What’s Special About Bearded Dragon Teeth?

🦎✨ Did you know your bearded dragon’s teeth are fused directly to their jawbones?
This is called acrodont dentition – and it means their teeth aren’t replaced as they age. Unlike mammals, this puts dragons (and other agamid lizards like water dragons) at a higher risk of dental problems.

Dental disease can lead to:
• Reduced appetite
• Weight loss
• Bone infections
• Even jaw fractures

Because early changes can be so subtle, a professional health check is the best way to catch problems early.

💚🐉 Valentine’s Post-Brumation Check-Up 🐉💚

This sweet bearded dragon Valentine, came in for a health check after brumation.
Brumation is a natural “winter slowdown” for reptiles, they rest more, eat less, and conserve energy during the cooler months.

As they wake up, it’s the perfect time for a vet visit. A post-brumation check helps us ensure your reptile is healthy and ready for the warmer season ahead.

Things we look for include:
✔️ Weight changes – sudden loss can signal hidden illness
✔️ Hydration – reptiles often wake up a little dehydrated
✔️ Parasites – common after long rest periods
✔️ Dental health – bearded dragons are prone to tartar build-up and mouth infections, so regular dental checks are vital for keeping them comfortable and eating well
✔️ Overall condition – eyes, skin, mobility, and energy levels

👉 If your bearded dragon has just finished brumation, now is the best time to book a check-up. It’s the easiest way to catch concerns early and keep them thriving.

We loved seeing Valentine and we hope your scaly friends are waking bright and well too! 🌿
✨ Coming soon: a closer look at dental health in bearded dragons what to watch for at home and why it matters.

Meet Australia’s iconic bearded dragon 🦎 a hardy little lizard who thrives in our deserts, woodlands, and scrublands. With their sun-loving nature and gentle personalities, they’ve become favourites both in the wild and as companions.

But out in the wild, life isn’t always easy. Bearded dragons face challenges such as:
🌱 Habitat loss from land clearing and urban expansion
🚗 Road strikes as they bask on warm bitumen
🐍 Predation from invasive species like foxes and cats
🌡️ Climate change shifting their habitats and food sources

On World Wildlife Day, we’re reminded of the importance of protecting species like the bearded dragon, not only for their role in our ecosystems but also for the joy they bring to so many.

💙 At BBEVS, we’re proud to care for exotic pets every day, but we never forget the wild cousins who inspire us to do better for our planet.
