I recently had a dental done by a specialist on my senior pup George. His last dental was in November 2011.  He has collapsed trachea and had some problems with anesthesia so I have been a bit afraid of doing a dental. My vet felt I should go to the specialist .. I had to do something because his teeth were awful after 1.5 year. Anyway....the specialist uses the Ora Vet sealant IF you want it and IF you will be compliant and apply it weekly. She also recommends rinsing the mouth after eating and then rinsing with CET rinse. Brushing also at a minimum of 3times/week. After 4 weeks I was stunned at how good his teeth looked...previously whenever he had a dental, the tartar would start within weeks..tiny mouth and just bad gingivitis. She told me that the main reason is that sealant...she swears by it. So far his teeth are looking really good!        |
