🦷 Meet Dr Mike Lawley – Friday Dental Referrals at Murdoch 🐶🐱

Wondering if your pet could benefit from seeing a veterinary dentist?

From fractured teeth and persistent bad breath to oral masses, gum disease, tooth resorptive lesions, and complex dental procedures, we're here to help pets live happier, pain-free lives.

Many dental problems can be difficult to spot at home, and pets often continue eating despite significant oral pain. If you have concerns, speak with your regular veterinarian about a referral or get in touch with our team.

🦷 Healthy mouths. Happy pets. 🐶🐱

Did you know that Dr Michael Lawley consults at Animal Dermatology Clinic every Friday?

With a special interest in veterinary dentistry and oral surgery, Dr Mike has many years of experience helping dogs and cats maintain healthy, pain-free mouths.

Dental disease is one of the most common health conditions affecting our pets, yet it often goes unnoticed until they're already uncomfortable. Bad breath, red or bleeding gums, difficulty eating, loose teeth, or dropping food can all be signs that your pet could benefit from a dental assessment.

Working alongside the experienced veterinary and nursing team at Animal Dermatology Clinic, Dr Mike provides comprehensive dental care to help improve your pet's comfort, health and quality of life.

If you're concerned about your pet's oral health, or your regular veterinarian has recommended a dental assessment, we'd be happy to help.

📍 Dr Mike consults at Animal Dermatology Clinic every Friday.

Good dental care is an important part of keeping your dog feeling their best. Healthy teeth and gums don’t just support eating and play - they also contribute to overall comfort and wellbeing. 🤍

Without regular care, problems like plaque buildup, gum disease, and infection can develop, often without obvious signs early on. Over time, these can lead to pain and affect your pet’s quality of life.

Our team focuses on gentle, thorough dental care tailored to each individual patient. We’re here to support you through every stage from early prevention to treatment so your pet stays comfortable along the way.

With the right care and regular check-ups, you can help your dog maintain a healthy mouth and enjoy life to the fullest. 🐾

Vet dentistry FAQs

🦷 How do I know if my pet has dental problems?
🤍 Many pets don’t show obvious signs and will often keep eating even if they’re uncomfortable. Keep an eye out for subtle changes like bad breath, yellow or brown buildup on teeth, red or bleeding gums, drooling, dropping food, or pawing at the mouth.

🦷 How can I care for my pet’s teeth at home?
🤍 Dental care is similar to our own - regular brushing (ideally daily), a balanced diet, and routine vet check-ups all help maintain good oral health. Dental chews and products can also support this, but they don’t replace brushing.

🦷 Does my pet need anaesthesia for a dental procedure?
🤍 Yes. Anaesthesia keeps your pet comfortable and still, allowing us to perform a thorough exam, take x-rays, and properly clean both above and below the gum line. This ensures a safer and much higher standard of care.

🦷 Is my pet too old for anaesthesia?
🤍 Age alone isn’t a reason to avoid anaesthesia. Each patient is assessed individually, with tailored protocols based on their health, blood results, and any existing conditions. With appropriate monitoring and expertise, even senior pets can safely undergo procedures.

🦷 What are the most common dental issues in pets?
🤍 The most common is periodontal disease (gum disease), but we also see tooth root infections, fractures, wear, developmental issues, and oral masses. Many of these can only be detected with dental x-rays.

🦷 Why are dental x-rays important?
🤍 Up to 60–70% of the tooth sits below the gum line, meaning problems can be hidden. X-rays allow us to detect issues like root disease, bone loss, or abscesses that aren’t visible during a standard exam.

Regular dental care plays a big role in your pet’s comfort and overall health, and early intervention can make all the difference. 🤍

When we look at your dog’s teeth, we’re only seeing a small part of the picture - just like the tip of an iceberg. What’s visible above the gum line is only a fraction of the whole tooth.

In fact, the crown (the part we can see) usually makes up only about one-third of the tooth. For smaller teeth like incisors, it’s even less - closer to one-quarter. The rest sits hidden beneath the gums, where problems can develop without obvious signs.

This is why dental disease can sometimes go unnoticed during a simple visual check. Issues below the gum line like infection, bone loss, or damaged roots can be present even when the teeth look relatively normal on the surface.

Comprehensive dental care, including imaging and thorough assessment, helps us see the full picture and manage problems early before they become more serious. 🐾
