🎥: This patient came to us after having months of mouth pain when eating hard food, chewing on bones and hard toys. Bilateral slab fractures (both sides) were discovered of 108 and 208 pre-molars with root exposure- causing significant pain. Dr. Biddle was able to extract the affected teeth and send this patient home where she can return to a normal diet and play with her toys again, pain-free!
🦷Let's talk teeth 🦷
Dental disease is one of the most common medical conditions seen by veterinarians. 80-90% of dogs over the age of 3 have active dental disease!
Symptoms: Dogs with dental disease may exhibit symptoms such as bad breath (halitosis), swollen or bleeding gums, reluctance to eat hard food, pawing at the mouth, drooling, and changes in behavior (e.g., irritability or depression). In severe cases, dental disease can cause systemic health issues such as heart disease and kidney disease due to bacteria entering the bloodstream.
How can we help? We recommend annual oral exams, which at CVC is included in their annual wellness exam, and in some cases yearly dental cleanings & x-rays. 🐾🪥

Put the pep back in your dog's step! 🐾
"Penelope" was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in both elbows. She has spent years recieving multiple medications, laser therapy and supplements to help control pain, but still had some "bad days".
Enter, Librela! Librela is a once-monthly injection used to treat pain assoicated with osteoarthritis in dogs. Librela is the first and only injectible antibody therapy, that functions differently than traditional NSAIDs with far less side effects.
We are super excited to offer Librela at CVC! Be sure to discuss any signs of pain you recognize in your pets with us at your next visit, your dog will thank you for it. 🐾
🎥: This video was taken just 48 hours after Penelope's first Librela injection.
