About this episode
Dr. Mikel Delgado interviews Dr. Jan Bellows, a Board Certified Veterinary Dentist, about periodontal disease! Listen to get Dr. Bellows's insight on what signs to look for in your dogs for periodontal disease, what it entails, and how to prevent it. Pets depend on us to take care of their teeth (if only they could brush their own teeth!); so, not only do we need to be aware of the warning signs of periodontal disease, but we also have to take the initiative to brush our dogs' teeth regularly, get their teeth cleaned professionally, and stay vigilant in looking for any signs of bad breath or dental pain in our pets. Did you know some dogs need braces? Just like humans, braces help push teeth into their correct places to prevent future teeth impacts and other maladies.
