Foxy’s Dental Health Inspiration

A Happy Webinar Participant

This email came from Sharryon, who participated in our Dental Health workshop in August. We hope you find it inspirational. It certainly reminds us that the work we do is important and a positive impact on so many pets’ lives.

Hi Dr Katie and Team!

I’m so fortunate to have attended your Dental Health webinar.

Foxy was re-homed to me at 16mo. Thank goodness the previous owner decided to give her up because Foxy was not given much care.

Trying to be the “good pup mom” after not having a dog for 30 yrs, I found an anesthesia-free dental cleaning I believed to be a great approach to cleanings every 6 months.

Yes, for almost 4 yrs, Foxy has had those cleanings, along with daily brushing at home.

No joke, before your webinar was over, I emailed Foxy’s vet asking for their recommendation for a Board Certified Dental Vet.

Dr. Sergio Hernandez with Veterinary Dental Specialists was provided. Beginning with consultation, I knew in my heart Foxy was in good hands. She had her cleaning yesterday.

Dr. Hernandez found her teeth to be “beautifully clean”, [however] the crown of her front tooth was broken off below gum line and there was periodontal disease between molars on one side of jaw.

Oh my gosh!!!!! Exactly the concerns you noted in your presentation Dr. Katie!

I can’t imagine what discomfort my pup has been experiencing and what she would have gone through if I had not been enlightened by you Dr. Katie!

For me, the photos in your presentation were a wake-up call.

You’re welcome to use these photo I took of Foxy’s 3D imaging and actual while she was under anesthesia that illustrate what I could not see between the two molars.
