I hope that people will not take this procedure lightly and consider the risks because there are risks.
I had one pup who had dentals yearly...and sometimes more often. She had horrible teeth. My Sassy lived to be 17! She did not have CT.
There are risks associated with everything. Risk vs benefit. My pups will not die due to diseased mouths.
To each his own.
