Seasonal hazard alert: This spring and summer, keep an eye out for grass seeds potentially becoming stuck in your dog’s fur, eyes or ears. 🌾

When grass seeds dry out, they become like tiny arrowheads with sharp tips and one-way barbs, and can gradually migrate deep into soft tissues, causing severe infections. ⚠️

Try to steer clear of tall nature strips or areas with long, unmown grass, and always check your dog over after outdoor play for any grass seeds trying to hitch a ride. 🔎

If you suspect your pet might have a grass seed injury, it’s best to book a prompt check-up with our team.

Missing teeth aren't always truly missing. Some teeth never erupt and remain trapped below the gum, where they can form damaging dentigerous cysts. 🔍

Others are lost to advanced periodontal disease, or break off, leaving painful retained roots hidden beneath the gumline. ⚠️

The only way to know for certain is with dental X-rays under anaesthesia. 🩻 If your dog has unexplained gaps, mention it at their next check-up so we can investigate.

Dogs adapt remarkably well after extractions, and many owners tell us their dog eats better than before, simply because they're no longer in pain. 🐶

Your dog may need softened food while their mouth heals, but most return to a normal diet, including kibble, within a couple of weeks. Even dogs with full-mouth extractions manage happily. 🍽️

A comfortable mouth with fewer teeth is far better than a painful mouth full of them. 💙

Contact our team if you have questions about your dog’s recovery.

Dental disease doesn't wait. ⏳ Much of the damage happens below the gumline where you can't see it, progressing from reversible gingivitis to painful, irreversible periodontal disease. 🦷

Delaying a recommended scale and polish often means more extractions, longer anaesthetics, and higher costs down the track. Modern anaesthesia is very safe, even for senior pets.

If we've recommended a dental for your pet, sooner is always better than later. 🩺
