🦷 DENTAL MONTH has been EXTENDED for SEPTEMBER! 🦷

During August we greatly improved the dental hygiene and overall health of many patients by giving 10% off dental procedures.🫶

Dental disease is not always obvious to us as it is difficult to examine our pet’s mouths and many pets will not show obvious signs of dental disease.

Signs your pet may have dental disease include:
🐕‍🦺 Bad breath
🐈 Discolouration or build-up of plaque and tartar on teeth
🐩 Gum redness
🐈‍⬛ Difficulty eating or reduced appetite
🦮 Discomfort around the mouth

🐾Even pets with only a small amount of visible tartar on their teeth often have a significant build-up of bacteria under the gum line that can eventually cause destruction of the tooth, gum and bone.

Dental disease is also uncomfortable and often painful for your pet - if you have ever had a tooth-ache, you can understand the pain associated with dental disease.

📞Contact us on 9351 9700 to secure your pets procedure with 10% off!

*T&C's apply.
*Spaces limited.

❤️ 🦷 Ever wondered why dental checks are so crucial for our beloved furry friends? Here’s why cats and dogs require regular dental assessments 🦷 ❤️

1. Dental disease is the most common problem affecting pet cats and dogs and is easily missed even by the most dedicated owners.
2. Cats and dogs HIDE signs of dental pain well, so you may not realise your pet is suffering from an uncomfortable mouth without veterinary assessment. Pets WILL continue to eat despite dental pain.
3. Health Implications: As well as causing pain, untreated dental disease can cause health issues affecting the kidneys, heart, and other organs.

⭐This August, in honour of Dental Month, we're excited to offer 10% off scale and polishes for our furry friends! To keep your pet’s smile bright and healthy, call us at 9351 9700 to book your pet in! 🐾
