                                  Malocclusions


Cute puppyAlthough it is not our intention to hide genetic flaws in show animals, we do believe every pet deserves a painless, functional bite. Many malocclusions are painful or may lead to extensive periodontal disease or worn and damaged teeth. 
There are a number of ways to treat each malocclusion. The type of treatment will be dependant on the client’s expectations, nature of the malocclusion, and the client’s commitment to treatment.
