Dental cleaning for dogs and cats in Barcelona
In short
Veterinary dental cleaning, or cleaning a dog's mouth, serves according to WSAVA to clean and polish the teeth and also to assess the periodontal tissues and the whole oral cavity. According to WSAVA, all procedures in the oral cavity, including professional teeth cleaning, are carried out under general anaesthesia with the airway secured by endotracheal intubation. Ask your vet about the risks of anaesthesia before deciding.12345678

Can a dog's mouth be cleaned without anaesthesia?
According to WSAVA, veterinary organisations around the world agree that dentistry without anaesthesia is not medically beneficial.1
The reason WSAVA gives is that whoever performs a cleaning without proper anaesthesia cannot assess the pathology or carry out any significant subgingival treatment.1 And WSAVA establishes that professional cleaning must be carried out under general anaesthesia with the airway secured by endotracheal intubation.1
That is why, if a service offers to clean your dog's mouth without anaesthesia, ask what can be assessed and treated that way, in light of what WSAVA says.1 The cited sources do not detail the risks of anaesthesia: discuss them with your vet.
What a complete dental cleaning includes
According to WSAVA, before the procedure the vet must carry out a complete physical and oral examination.1
The aim of dental prophylaxis, according to WSAVA, is to clean and polish the teeth and also to assess the periodontal tissues and the whole oral cavity.1 The cited sources do not detail the remaining steps, such as X-rays or additional treatments. Ask the centre to explain what its cleaning includes.
Dental care at home
According to WSAVA, brushing is by far the most effective means of mechanically removing plaque.1
The cited sources do not detail the technique, the frequency or the products. Your vet can advise you on them. Nor do they say that brushing replaces professional cleaning under anaesthesia, so ask your vet.
When it is an emergency
The general criteria for an emergency are these:
- Emergency care usually starts with a phone call to the vet, who can give first-aid and safe transport instructions and helps the clinic prepare for your arrival.3
- Poisoning, severe pain, serious or uncontrolled bleeding and difficulty breathing are among the examples of emergencies that require immediate veterinary care.3
If your dog shows any of these signs, call your clinic or an emergency centre. The cited sources do not describe specific complications after a dental cleaning.
Signs to seek care without waiting
- Poisoning, severe pain, severe or uncontrolled bleeding or difficulty breathing: these are examples of emergencies that need immediate veterinary care.
- Before you go: phone the clinic; it can give you first aid and safe transport instructions.
