Max’s Corner
Hello and welcome to my newsletter, where I will keep you up to date on Pets on Broadway’s latest and our monthly specials.
Hi, friends!
Due to the response to this promotion we are continuing our dental offer in March. In March we are also offering a "Spring Into Wellness" package which includes a check up with the doctor, blood work and a fecal analysis. Call for more information.
February is National Pet Dental Month, and at Pets on Broadway we offer our clients a 10% discount on our dental "package", which includes:
- A FREE dental check up
- Blood work to check that your pets' liver and kidneys are healthy enough for them to undergo general anesthesia.
-Intravenous fluids to maintain proper kidney function and blood pressure.
-X-rays to check for diseased, damaged or loose teeth that may need to be extracted.
-Ultrasonic scaling to remove plaque and tartar accumulation from the tooth crown (the visible part) and below the gum line to stop it from progressing.
-Dental extractions, if needed.
-Polishing to smooth out roughened enamel, making it difficult for plaque to adhere to teeth.
-If teeth are extracted, your pet will be sent home with pain medication and antibiotics to prevent infection.
before dental cleaning
Dental care is important not only to keep teeth healthy, but also for overall health. Bacteria are very sneaky: they "hang out" on saliva and food particles in teeth and gums (gross, huh?), slowly progressing below the gum line. Then, they travel through the bloodstream, finally reaching other organs of the body like the heart, liver and kidneys, where they can cause serious problems. Dental disease can also affect your pet’s behavior, just like a toothache would affect you. I am a perfect example of this, as I explained on “About Max” : I had trouble eating, stinky breath, drooled, couldn't even groom myself, and ended up losing all my teeth (except my fangs) to feline gingivostomatitis .
after dental cleaning
We will send you home with information on how to give proper dental care between checkups, like how to brush their teeth and what toys, treats, and specially formulated foods are available to help keep your pets teeth clean between professional dental work.
