🦷【別再被騙了！寵物洗牙的5個超級誤會】🐶🐱
你家毛孩有口臭嗎？先別急著說「不用洗牙」！來看看這些常見的迷思👇
🚫 迷思一：「麻醉會讓毛孩一睡不醒！」
💡 真相：現代獸醫麻醉技術相當成熟，術前會進行血液檢查、心肺功能評估。雖然任何麻醉都有風險，但專業獸醫會將風險降到最低
🚫 迷思二：「我家狗狗天天啃潔牙骨，牙齒超乾淨！」
💡 真相：潔牙骨能幫助減少牙菌斑，但無法完全取代專業洗牙。牙齦線下的牙結石需要專業器械才能清除
🚫 迷思三：「我家老狗15歲了，經不起折騰」
💡 真相：年齡不是絕對禁忌！獸醫會評估整體健康狀況，包括心肺腎功能。許多老犬在適當評估後仍可安全洗牙
🚫 迷思四：「洗完牙齒會變鬆動」
💡 真相：如果牙齒變鬆，是因為原本就有嚴重牙周病。洗牙只是移除了「支撐」牙齒的牙結石，露出真實狀況
🚫 迷思五：「沒症狀就不用洗」
💡 真相：牙周病初期往往沒有明顯症狀。等到口臭、流血時，治療會更複雜且昂貴
⚡ 小提醒：大多數3歲以上的犬貓都有不同程度的牙周問題，定期檢查很重要！

🦷【Stop Being Fooled! 5 Super Misconceptions About Pet Dental Cleaning】🐶🐱
Does your fur baby have bad breath? Don't rush to say "no need for dental cleaning"! Check out these common myths👇
🚫 Myth 1: "Anesthesia will make my pet never wake up!"
💡 Truth: Modern veterinary anesthesia techniques are quite advanced, with pre-operative blood tests and cardiopulmonary assessments. While any anesthesia carries risks, professional veterinarians minimize them
🚫 Myth 2: "My dog chews dental treats daily, teeth are super clean!"
💡 Truth: Dental treats can help reduce plaque, but cannot completely replace professional cleaning. Tartar below the gum line requires professional instruments to remove
🚫 Myth 3: "My old dog is 15, can't handle the stress"
💡 Truth: Age isn't an absolute contraindication! Vets will assess overall health, including heart, lung, and kidney function. Many senior dogs can still have safe dental cleanings with proper evaluation
🚫 Myth 4: "Teeth become loose after cleaning"
💡 Truth: If teeth become loose, it's because there was already severe periodontal disease. Cleaning just removes the tartar that was "supporting" the teeth, revealing the true condition
🚫 Myth 5: "No symptoms, no need to clean"
💡 Truth: Early periodontal disease often has no obvious symptoms. By the time there's bad breath and bleeding, treatment becomes more complex and expensive
⚡ Reminder: Most dogs and cats over 3 years old have varying degrees of periodontal issues - regular check-ups are important!
