😁Veterinary Technician Week was a success! We had the pleasure of hosting our Bite-Sized Wisdom course for technicians last month, and we had so much fun!😍

The technicians were welcomed with a small treat, and we spent the day learning. We spent time practicing dental radiographs for cats and dogs in depth. We went over scaling & polishing, local oral blocks, sharpening instruments, and client conversations. 🩺

Huge shoutout to the clinics that sent their technicians to our CE, we had technicians from Colorado, Illinois, and Texas! We hope your technicians came back excited to share what they learned! Our next Tech course will be February 2027!

🦷After a fractured tooth undergoes root canal treatment, clients can choose to place a crown on their pet's tooth to protect it from further fracturing. We specifically provide this treatment for strategically important teeth. The crown restores the pet's tooth function, not just for aesthetics, even though they do look pretty cool! 🌠

🩺This treatment requires two anesthetic procedures. The first procedure includes the root canal therapy and prepping the tooth for the metal crown. Our doctors create detailed impressions, which we send to Creature Crowns to fabricate the crowns, and they return to us once complete. In the second procedure, we cement the crown into place. 🐶

Have we mentioned we love continuing education? 🩺

We were fortunate to host Dr. Boaz Arzi for an oromaxillofacial surgical lab. He is a Professor and the Chief of Dentistry and Oral Surgery in the Department of Surgical and Radiological Sciences at the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine. We hosted veterinarians from around the country at the education center to help strengthen their techniques when complicated cases arise. 🦷🐶🐱

We look forward to seeing him again next year! 🥳

Meet your pet’s care team! 🩺🐾

Ely has been part of ADC for 5 years. In addition to her technician role, she is a class coordinator and marketing assistant. Her favorite part of working at Animal Dental Care depends on the day: when she’s on the floor, she loves anesthesia and working alongside MVA to build her skills and expand her knowledge. On class days, she enjoys working with students and training in radiographs. At marketing events, she loves talking with people and educating them about preventive care. 🐶🐱

At home, Ely has four pets: a lab named Leo, a pitty named Rocky, and two orange kitties, Wilbur and Randy (Big B and Little D). On her days off, Ely stays busy—she enjoys camping, cooking, hiking, and collecting rocks with her husband, Ricky. She also loves traveling and has visited 15 countries so far. Ely provides pet-sitting services and has expanded a Los Angeles Chargers fan group in Colorado Springs that meets downtown for games. 🏈

Fun fact: Ely makes jewelry from rocks she collects after they’ve tumbled for 4–6 weeks! 🤍

Gas and Gums- Veterinary Anesthesia & Dentistry Symposium

Dr. Kennedy came from out of state to lecture on anesthesia, and we were all so happy to have him visit; as a bonus, we did CPR training at our clinic. Dr. Baldwin and Dr. Adley covered our dentistry CE and did an amazing job; we are lucky to work with them daily. And of course, Dr. Vall was a great host! We appreciate all the lecturers who were present this year. What topics would you like to see next year?

ECG REVIEW & COMMON ARRHYTHMIAS 🩺

Vigilant patient monitoring is one of the most important ways to maximize patient safety. ECG monitoring offers continuous information about the electrical activity of the heart in real time. Given that many drugs and disease processes can cause alterations in this electrical activity, a basic understanding of what a normal ECG should look like is essential for being able to rapidly identify and treat any potentially dangerous arrhythmias. This lecture reviews the basic parts of the ECG, normal ECGs, and reviews several common arrhythmias with treatments when indicated.

Learning Objectives:
🐾Be able to identify the P-wave, QRS complex, and T wave of a normal ECG
🐾Be able to recognize when parts of the normal ECG are missing
🐾Be able to recognize an abnormal QRS complex
🐾Be able to describe ECG abnormalities accurately
🐾Know what arrhythmias need immediate treatment

OPEN WIDE! HOW TO DO A COMPLETE CONSCIOUS AND ANESTHETIC ORAL EXAM 🩺

This presentation reviews a systematic approach to the conscious and anesthetized oral evaluation of dogs and cats. Emphasis will be placed on recognizing normal oral anatomy, performing a thorough extraoral and intraoral examination, and accurately documenting findings using the Triadan tooth identification system. Including periodontal disease, tooth resorption, endodontic disease, stomatitis, trauma, and oral neoplasia. Major juvenile findings of developmental abnormalities and persistent deciduous teeth during first exams will be discussed. The presentation will also review the identification and classification of common malocclusions. Attendees will gain a practical framework for performing consistent oral examinations and recognizing abnormalities that warrant further diagnostic investigation or treatment.
