🦷Dental procedures are recommended when your pet has been diagnosed with dental disease. We understand that this can be a worrying and want to help you to know what to expect. 👇

Your pet will receive a personalised anaesthetic protocol based on their age, breed and blood results (if applicable). They will be under anaesthetic for the duration of the procedure, to ensure they are still and pain-free, and will be constantly monitored by a dedicated and trained member of staff throughout.

First, a full oral examination is carried out and a dental chart completed. The amount of tartar, the degree of gum disease and any damaged or fractured teeth are recorded. The mouth is checked for abnormal changes such as signs of infection or growths on the gums.

Next, an ultrasonic scaler is used to remove all plaque and/or tartar from the teeth. A very fine probe is used to explore the edges of each tooth to identify any gingival pockets, root exposure or loose teeth. These are all recorded on the dental chart. Dogs have 42 teeth and cats have 30, so it can take some time to fully assess the whole mouth.

Depending on what is found during initial assessment, some teeth may need to be extracted. If teeth are severely diseased, they will not recover even after cleaning, and will cause pain if left in the mouth. Depending on why a tooth needs extracting, it can be removed using either a closed or a surgical technique.

Are our pets protected against ticks? 👇
Ticks are small parasites that can attach to cats and dogs to feed from their blood. Generally, ticks are unpleasant, but pose no real threat to health. However, recently there has been an increase in tick-borne diseases in the UK.

Ticks are arachnids, related to both spiders and mites. They are found in grassy areas such as fields and meadows, as well as some woodland. Ticks are present year-round, but tend to be more active in the warmer summer months.

When a tick is ready to feed, it climbs to the tip of a grass blade and waits for an animal to pass by. The tick reaches out and, when an animal brushes past, it grabs hold of the fur. This is known as “questing”. Ticks usually remain attached to a host for 2-4 days, before dropping off into the environment. They then reproduce before questing again when they are ready for another feed.

An unfed tick is dark brown and only a few millimetres in size. Once attached to a host and feeding, they can rapidly swell to the size of a jellybean. Ticks are often found on farm animals and small mammals such as squirrels, rabbits and hedgehogs, but will also attach to cats, dogs or even people, given the chance. It’s important to check pets after countryside walks, as well as your own legs! Ticks are often found on the legs and abdomen, and can grab onto long-haired pets, so always check between the fur.
