87. Open Wide! Brushing Up on Veterinary Dentistry | MVC 2024 Preview Series
Description
Most of us are well aware of the impact of dental care on not just our oral health, but our overall wellness. This is true not only for humans, but animals as well.
Studies have shown that the vast majority of cats and dogs over the age of 3 have some degree of periodontal disease, and with pet ownership on the rise, it is more important than ever to educate clients on the importance of regular dental cleanings for their pets.
But until recently, dentistry wasn’t a staple of veterinary education, so many practitioners haven’t gotten the hands-on training needed to offer this vital service to their patients. So where do you begin?
On today’s show, we are continuing our 2024 Midwest Veterinary Conference Preview Series with two rockstars of veterinary dentistry: Dr. Jamie Berning and technician Jill Bates, who are here to share a sneak peek at their two days of lectures and hands-on training at the MVC.
