Toothy Tails: Vet Dental Spotlight

Odin was in so much pain this fall that he couldn’t even open his mouth without crying, and even stopped playing with his favorite hedgehog toy. After a thorough exam, we found sores in his mouth from Canine Chronic Ulcerative Stomatitis (CCUS) and discovered periodontal disease causing bone loss, loose teeth, and severe pain.
To help him feel better, we performed full mouth extractions, and after just two weeks, Odin was already healing like a champ! Dr. Jodi even gifted him a new hedgehog to play with🦔!
Fast forward to his recent checkup, and Odin is back to his playful self, running around and enjoying life again🎉🐾!

Paulie was diagnosed with Feline Stomatitis, a painful condition causing severe inflammation in the mouth. Dental X-rays showed mild to moderate periodontal disease alongside the stomatitis. After discussing treatment options, Dr. Liz performed full mouth extractions, which is the best way to manage this condition for long-term relief.

We're thrilled to report that Paulie is on the road to recovery! After his 6-week check-up, he’s doing much better at home.

Here’s what Paulie’s family had to say: "We were so impressed with Dr. Wood, the vet nurse, vet tech, and the entire staff. They were incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and professional. Dr. Wood took the time to explain Paulie’s condition and treatment plan. I appreciated the frequent updates and clear instructions for home care. Thank you for providing such excellent care for Paulie!"

Charlie came to us with periodontal disease and Canine Chronic Ulcerative Stomatitis (CCUS), which was causing painful oral ulcers, inflammation, and bad breath. After discussing options with his family, mouth extractions were done to help alleviate these symptoms and improve his quality of life.

Charlie also has epilepsy, so we took extra precautions by creating a customized anesthesia plan to ensure his safety throughout the procedure.

We’re happy to report that after his 3-week post-op recheck, Charlie is doing GREAT! 🎉

Here’s what Charlie’s mom had to say:
"Nichole was so helpful from our very first contact, answering all my questions and making me feel confident and comfortable about the procedure. The entire team was warm, kind, and understanding, and the environment was calming. Dr. Wood was thorough and compassionate in explaining everything, which made me feel sure we were making the right choice. I loved getting regular updates via text and phone about Charlie’s progress. Thank you all SO much for taking such wonderful care of my little old guy!"

Fred came to see us after he fractured a tooth (the crown of 208) that caused an infection and facial swelling. He’d been treated by his primary vet 10 days before his visit here. Radiographs showed the infection, likely from chewing on something too hard (like Nylabones, antlers, bones, yak chews, pig hooves, or even ice). Dr. Liz extracted the damaged tooth and another one that had some mobility issues. Now, Fred is feeling great and recovering well at home! 🐶❤️

A special shoutout to our amazing front desk team! Here's what Fred's mom had to say: “My initial call with the front desk woman was a godsend. She was so sweet! I called many other offices, but she was by far the most helpful and kind. I really appreciate her willingness to go above and beyond to get us an appointment. Thank you!”

Swipe to see Fred's x-ray transformation!

🐾 Meet Hunter! 🐾 Dr. Liz recently treated him for a fractured canine tooth. Thankfully, there was no pulp exposure, and his tooth looked healthy on the dental radiographs. This allowed Dr. Liz to restore the crown of the affected tooth, sealing and protecting the exposed dentin while giving it a more natural appearance.

To keep his new restoration safe, Hunter will need to stick to soft toys and treats from now on! 🦷💙

Here's what Hunter's owner had to say: "Veterinary Dental Center is quaint, cute, clean, friendly, and calm. He’s doing so great, and we’re happy he got the care he needed!"

Meet Girlie, the sweet pup who overcame a palatal defect thanks to the love and care of her foster, Brittany, who has become her mom! 🐶💕 Dr. Jodi performed a successful palate repair, and Girlie is now on the road to recovery.

“Dr. Jodi and team, thank you for being Girlie’s guardian angels! I thought I had exhausted all of my efforts in being able to provide Girlie with the care that she needs. I had taken her to 3 different specialists, and was told Girlie would need feeding tubes and multiple surgeries at astronomical prices. Dr. Jodi, you genuinely saved both Girlie and I from a terrible shelter experience. Words can’t describe how grateful I am to have found you! THANK YOU!"

Meet Luke T!
He was so sweet and super excited to be at VDCA, despite having a super painful mouth. Luke was seen for a condition called Canine Chronic Ulcerative Stomatitis (CCUS, previously known as Canine Ulcerative Parental Stomatitis or CUPS).

Dogs with CCUS develop an immune response to plaque that forms on their teeth. This makes them unable to tolerate the presence of even a small amount of plaque and calculus. Dogs with CCUS will develop ulcers throughout their mouth in the areas that contact the teeth, leading to a tremendous amount of pain and will eventually dramatically reduce their quality of life.

The most common signs are bad breath, excessive drooling, cloudy saliva, pain (seen as grinding teeth, avoiding exam of the mouth, difficulty eating), reduced energy, reluctance to play with toys, and some dogs will even eat less or stop eating altogether.

Treatment for this oral disease is extraction of all the teeth in the areas where there is severe ulceration. Sadly, sometimes this means extracting all of their teeth. In some cases, if caught early and with very committed pet parents, some or many of the affected dogs teeth can be saved. Trying to save their teeth, if the oral ulcers are not too severe, involves daily plaque preventing dental home care and frequent professional dental cleanings under general anesthesia (typically every 3-4 months).

Thankfully, we were able to help sweet boy Luke feel so much better with extractions. He is now living his best, happy, pain-free life, and his parents are so happy his breath is so fresh and so clean now!

Meet Jumper! 🐾✨
Jumper had dental calculus, gingivitis, and was missing several teeth. After a thorough exam, we found that Jumper had advanced periodontal disease, causing bone loss and tooth mobility. Some teeth even had painful infections.
To help Jumper feel better, we decided to extract 14 of his teeth. We used special oral nerve blocks to ensure he didn't feel any pain during the procedure and carefully stitched up his gums with absorbable sutures that will dissolve on their own.
One of Jumper's most challenging issues was a large oronasal fistula, which is an opening between the mouth and nasal cavity. This required careful surgical attention. We also cleaned and sealed his remaining teeth to protect them from further damage.
Jumper is now recovering well, and we hope this will slow the progression of his periodontal disease. He's already on the way to a healthier, happier smile! 🦷💙
Let's give Jumper some love for being such a brave pup! 🐶❤️
