Questions

FAQ

What is included in Shurcut’s Doggie Dental service?
Shurcut’s Doggie Dental service includes gentle teeth brushing, a mouth wipe-down, and a breath treatment using pet-safe products. The service is designed to support routine oral hygiene without anesthesia.
How does professional dog teeth brushing help with oral hygiene?
Professional dog teeth brushing helps maintain oral hygiene by removing soft plaque buildup and keeping the mouth fresher between veterinary dental cleanings. It is intended as routine maintenance, not a replacement for veterinary dental care.
Can Doggie Dental help reduce plaque and freshen my dog’s breath?
Yes. Doggie Dental can help reduce soft plaque buildup and freshen your dog’s breath through gentle brushing and breath treatment. However, it does not remove hardened tartar below the gumline.
Is professional teeth brushing safe for puppies?
Yes. Gentle teeth brushing can help puppies develop positive brushing habits when they are comfortable with the process. Shurcut specifically lists puppies as suitable candidates for Doggie Dental and uses calm, stress-light handling.
How often should a dog receive professional teeth brushing?
The appropriate frequency depends on your dog’s oral health, home-care routine, and veterinary recommendations. Doggie Dental can be used as routine maintenance between veterinary dental cleanings.
Can Doggie Dental be added to a bath or full grooming appointment?
Yes. Doggie Dental can be combined with a Bath or Full Groom appointment, making it convenient to maintain your dog’s oral hygiene during a regular grooming visit.
Does Doggie Dental include tartar scaling or teeth polishing?
No. Shurcut’s Doggie Dental service does not include tartar scaling or teeth polishing. Deep tartar cleaning, particularly below the gumline, requires evaluation and treatment by a veterinarian.
Can dogs with dental disease receive Doggie Dental at the salon?
Dogs showing signs of dental disease may need veterinary evaluation before receiving salon dental care. Shurcut does not perform dental care on dogs with mouth pain, active bleeding, or obvious infection and recommends seeing a veterinarian first.
What should I do if my dog has bleeding gums, mouth pain, or signs of infection?
If your dog has bleeding gums, mouth pain, active bleeding, or signs of infection, contact your veterinarian rather than relying on salon teeth brushing. These symptoms may require professional veterinary dental evaluation.
How can I maintain my dog’s dental hygiene between professional cleanings?
You can support your dog’s dental hygiene at home with regular, gentle tooth brushing and by following your veterinarian’s dental-care recommendations. Doggie Dental can also provide routine maintenance between veterinary dental cleanings.
