About Pooch Dental
For as long as I can remember, dogs have held a special place in my heart. Despite exploring various career paths, I’ve always been pulled back to working with dogs. Over the span of five years in the dog industry, particularly as a groomer, I’ve diligently refined my skills, gaining invaluable insights into the diverse needs of each furry companion.
Throughout my grooming journey, I’ve been privy to countless tales of dismay surrounding dog dental care, igniting a passion to be the change I wanted to see. It was this determination that fueled my decision to embark on a new path—one dedicated not only to advancing my career but also to making a positive impact in the lives of my clients and their beloved pets.
What is sedation-free Teeth Cleaning
This service provides non-sedative teeth cleaning for dogs, offering a safe and effective way to remove plaque, tartar, and buildup from their teeth without the use of sedation or anesthesia. Using specialized tools, we manually scale the teeth and polish them to smooth surfaces, reducing the likelihood of plaque buildup. This option is ideal for pet owners concerned about anesthesia risks or dogs sensitive to sedation.
What Pooch Dental Offers
We offer teeth cleaning without the need for anesthesia or sedation. For smaller dogs, we gently wrap them in a towel, while larger dogs are positioned comfortably on their backs. The cleaning process lasts around an hour and 30 minutes, during which we use manual scaling tools to clean your dog’s teeth meticulously. Before starting the cleaning, we will conduct an assessment to ensure the safety of both our team and your pet. We will discuss any findings with you, including signs of gum irritation or tooth damage. It’s important to note that while we conduct a visual inspection, we are not veterinarians and cannot diagnose or treat conditions. Most dogs tolerate the procedure well, but if we’re unable to proceed, there is no charge for our attempt.
Pricing
Our prices are set at a flat rate, regardless of your dog’s size or breed. A deposit is required at the time of booking, which will be deducted from the final cost of the cleaning. If it’s determined that the service cannot be completed for any reason, a refund will be issued to the original form of payment. The total cost for the cleaning is $249 + GST , with a deposit of $30 + GST.
