An overview of Houndstooth's anesthesia-free procedure from their web site:
"Every pet’s dental needs are different. Current anesthetic dental procedures offer a one- size-fits-all protocol that does not take into consideration the level of dental care needed or the individual pet’s age & health.
We work closely with veterinarians & pet guardians as a team in order to provide an individualized dental program including appropriate follow up & home care instruction.
Houndstooth offers several different levels of care ranging from a routine prophylaxis (the best time to start a non-anesthetic dental program) to our Quality of Life tm treatments for senior or health-compromised pets.
Each appointment begins with a friendly introduction to our technician who will perform a visual exam of the mouth & head. Any abnormalities will be charted & discussed for appropriate treatment.
Your pet will then be comfortably positioned &gently introduced to the scaling procedure. Your technician will then proceed to thoroughly remove the tartar & plaque from all surfaces of the teeth using a selection of appropriate instruments.
The cleaning is followed by polishing & home care instruction."
