• Broken teeth can often be repaired with root canal therapy, metal crowns or tooth-colored composite restorations.
  
  
• Pets can and do get cavities. Cavities should be detected early and filled properly before they result in pulp infection and tooth loss.
   
• Teeth that come in crooked may damage other teeth, lips or palate, but may now be moved to their proper positions using orthodontics.
   
• Teeth that are forced out by accidents or fights can often be replaced and saved.
   
• Valuable show pups can be evaluated for a full set of adult teeth at only 8 to 10 weeks of age.
   
• Loose front teeth in small dogs can often sometimes be stabilized with nearly invisible splinting techniques instead of being extracted.
   
• Dangerous dogs can be humanely disarmed. Diagnosis of nasal and sinus disease maybe assisted by dental radiographs and rhinoscopy techniques.
   
• Overgrown gums or gums with benign tumors can be restored to their normal contours.
   
• Fractures of the jaw can now often be healed without the use of pins, plates or screws.

Even with these advanced pet dental care procedures, your pet's teeth and gums can't be kept healthy without your excellent care at home. Daily brushing with special pet toothpaste is the best, but there are several good alternatives available for pets who are not as cooperative. We'll show you how!
