We have loved meeting these absolute cuties! We thought you might like to see them too.
Bacteria makes a home in the calculus that sits like concrete on the tooth. It infects the gum and makes it recede away from the tooth if it isn't addressed. Untreated dental disease can result in bacteria getting into the jaw bone and causing peridontals disease. Addressing dental disease early saves your pet's teeth and saves them from a lifetime of chronic oral pain!
You can see significant calculus build up on these teeth (the thick, yucky brown stuff coating the teeth). These gums have receded significantly and the roots are directly in contact with the bacteria filled calculus.
Dental disease causes chronic pain, heart disease, kidney disease, liver disease and infection of the jaw bone can results in broken jaws (particularly in toy breeds).
We are passionate about preventing your pet form ever having to experience this level of disease.
This little unlucky turtle swallowed a fish hook! On presentation there was fishing line coming out of its mouth. There was no hook visible in its mouth so we performed an x-ray to find out what we might be dealing with. Unfortunately the hook had been swallowed down and this little guy got a free trip to Healsville Sanctuary Veterinary Clinic for surgical removal.
