    Studies have shown that older dogs have a higher incidence of dental disease (periodontal disease). This is an active infection in the oral cavity that can also impact the overall health of your pets. In this webinar, Dr. Lobprise will explain how with good pre-operative exams and personalized anesthetic protocols, the risks of anesthesia can be minimized for these patients—and will also share how the benefits of resolving these oral infections sometimes are so profound that dogs start acting like puppies again after treatment!
