3DogNite Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 (edited) OMG ! Only in my dreams did Lazer EVER have white teeth!!! and now here he is ,, ALIVE, a little tuckered out,, but ALIVE and has WHITE TEETH!!! his gums are red - probably pretty sore. She did not have the ultrasonic cleaner, but still did a very thorough gentle cleaning!!! she said his teeth are basically healthy. nothing was loose or looked like they needed to be pulled. so~ Now to get his gums healthy - I am so glad we started the antibiotics - he will be taking them for another 10 days or so. he was absolutely NERVOUS! he was absolutely glad to walk out of there!!! with this being our ONLY option in cleaning his mouth/teeth - I am thrilled with the outcome. thank you all for your positive collective thoughts for Lazer !! and lazer thanks you too - from his now tightly closed eyes,, he is in la la land!!! L- ***************** Today is our DAY!!! Lazer hasn't enjoyed the added antibiotic to his daily schedule of pills. His apatite has been down - but other than that I think he's as ready as ever for clean teeth!! mom on the other hand is nervous and trying not to show it! Lazer received a BOX yesterday - his Auntie Linda sent him BURPDOG cake for his birthday - coming on Saturday. I did KNOT make him wait - he gobbled up a couple big bites last night. I'll be back later to let you all know how he does. fingers, toes, arms and legs ---- anything and everything that can be crossed - please cross them for good luck!!! Thanks! ****************************************** Most of you know about my miracle boy Lazer. He is doing VERY VERY WELL!!! this is his 18+ month update: Remaining Clot in his heart: 1/4 the size it was at it's largest!!!! This alone is AMAZING , but there is more his blood work is very Close to Normal and continuing to improve as time goes on. His urinalysis : well there is still protein loss,, however it is also improving and getting better VF titre is staying very low! ALL THESE THINGS LEAD ME TO ASK FOR ANOTHER ROUND OF PRAYERS FOR MY BOY! on Thursday he will be having a gentle cleaning session on his teeth. we cannot do a full dental due to the clot in his heart - he cannot go under anesthesia : so this is our next best option. if we do nothing - he will certainly be die from the bacteria in his mouth continuing to contaminate his body/kidneys and continuing his PLN --- shortening his life span considerably! and call me greedy - but i intend on lazer being here with me FOREVER!!! He is starting clindamycin today Colloidal Silver will be used along with other anti-bacterial/fungal/microbial holistic mouth washing during the cleaning. NO electric tools will be used and sharp tools will be kept to a minimum - I will be present thru the whole procedure and will be holding his paw to keep him calm. I know this will not get everything we need from under the gums - but we will get as much as we possibly can. Thank you all!! This will be the first place i come to update on Thursday afternoon! sorry if you think this is posted too early - but the Power of GT is undeniable and we Believe in the power of collective intent of health - small teaser - another thread will appear soon for my boy in EE as this weekend will be his 7th Birthday !!! we didn't think he'd live thru that first weekend - almost 19 months ago! lorinda and lazer Edited March 14, 2013 by 3DogNite Quote lorinda, mom to the ever revolving door of Foster greyhounds Always in my heart: Teala (LC Sweet Dream) , Pepton, Darbee-Do (Hey Barb) , Rascal (Abitta Rascal), Power (Beyond the Power), and the miracle boy LAZER (2/21/14), Spirit (Bitter Almonds) 8/14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbhounds Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Sounds like a solid game plan (I would go the ultrasonic way too-to much room for error with handscaling). Clindamycin is a greyt ab to target oral bacteria. Keep us posted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remolacha Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 so happy to hear this update! for the dental-lite I don't know if he could take this with his health issues, but my guys have been using PlaqueOff which really helps keep the tartar and plaque down. Obviously, does not replace a dental, but it really does help if you have a dog that can't go under anesthesia. My friend uses it on her 13 yr old coonhound too, with great results.

duncan41 Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 I don't think Lorinda took many breaths during the entire time (a very LONG time) the procedure was taking place! But all is well and now Laser can rest and concentrate on getting rid of the rest of that clot in his heart! Love you,Laser!! So glad you had your cake early!!! Happy Birthday!
