I would like to know who has had their Cavalier's teeth professionally cleaned...and at what age?
Brodie turned 2 in April and he is beginning to get the brown tartar on his back teeth. My vet says that it isn't time for a professional cleaning just yet but I am worried that if I wait too long he could have damage under the gumline. After reading a thread started by Cathy titled "Dentist" this can be a serious problem.

How do you guys feel about this? I know that we should avoid anesthesia with Cavaliers unless absolutley necessary...but considering the relationship of MVD and dental disease, when does this become a risk we are willing to take?
:thnku: in advance!!!
