I would think if you brushed them after they had a dental done that you wouldnt need to have it done again in a year but I dont really have experience with getting dentals done.
What kind of bones do you give her? Sadie chews on Dental Stix and that is mostly it. I worry about her choking on bones. I do brush her teeth, but not like I should.

I always take her in once a year, and have been brushing more than the year before. But, when she had hernia surgery three mos. or so ago, the ass't. showed me her back lower teeth and they were dirty. I was shocked because the teeth I have been brushing were just fine. I just can't get to the back teeth very well.

Thanks.
