Yesterday, my dog, Pip, a Toller, went in for dental surgery by Dr. Hall at Animal Dental Clinic in Vienna, VA. Dr. Hall also works for the National Zoo. About a decade ago, Dr. Hall was the dentist of my German Shepherd who had a root canal. My concern at that time was whether the crown would last. It did--thru the lifetime of my dog thanks to a special customized composite for a crown. This time, my one-year old Toller had multiple damaged teeth (7) on the same side of his face. Whether he crashed into something or chewed rocks or a hard toy or bone, I will never know. The steps for Pip were clearly laid out by Dr. Hall and his staff, Allison and Cristal, who were thorough, patient, and pleasant in their responses to my numerous questions. Yesterday morning, 1 brought my dog in. After Dr. Hall had reviewed the x-rays, Dr. Hall called me with his recommendation. Shortly afterwards, Pip was operated on. Later that day, I picked him up. Using Dr. Hall, 1 am confidant that I have done my best for my dog. What family practitioner has such specialized experience? There are so few dog dentist specialists in the country. Would you let your internist extract your tooth? From now on, my dog will go once a year for a dental checkup. For all the dental work, the cost of the procedures was surprisingly affordable.
