With August marking National Pet Dental Health Month, Dr. Brook Niemiec traveled down under to speak at the World Veterinary Dental Congress/FSAVA and to help his Australian colleagues progress the field of veterinary dentistry even further.

To kick off the trip, Dr. Niemiec lectured at the OraVet Doggy Brunch where he was excited to discuss with the various attendees the importance of combating common dental issues faced by our beloved pets.

After brunch, Brook and the team spent the afternoon playing fetch with the furry friends in attendance – and giving them their monthly dental check-ups!

That’s when Dr. Niemiec received his 15-minutes of fame and was interviewed on Channel 7 News to talk about some of the signs and solutions of gum disease listed below.

Noted Signs:

• Bad breath
• Redness
• Tarter

Noted Solutions:

• OraVet Dental Chews
• Regular brushing

As mentioned, Brook then proceeded to speak at the Federation of Asian Small Animal Veterinary Associations Congress while connecting with his worldwide colleagues. And just like that, a successful trip down under came to a close…
