Small Animal Dentistry Wet Labs
at Guelph Veterinary Specialty Hospital
We have been honored to receive extremely positive feedback from many practitioners who have taken our wet lab program that we started at the Ontario Veterinary College back in 1999.
“From the standpoint of professional satisfaction, patient care and profit, your CE is the best investment I have ever made. Thanks.”
— Southern Ontario Small Animal Practitioner
We offer a small group of four practitioners individual attention in a full day wet lab program where procedures are done using only ethically obtained dog and cat cadavers. We cover oral radiographic techniques and interpretation using a computed radiography phosphor plate system. We also cover current techniques in local anesthesia and surgical extractions.
