She's still very sleepy but she's home and she's doing great and the good news is her mouth is no longer stinky.

她仍然很困，但她已經回家了，而且表現得很好，好消息是她的嘴巴不再發臭了。

Hey everyone, welcome back to the vlog.

大家好，歡迎回到視頻博客。

Today we are talking about dentistry.

今天我們來談談牙科。

What?

What are you saying Dr. Sue?

你在說什麼？

So today Matilda and I had a very big day because she had her teeth cleaned finally and I'll be honest guys I have been putting off for years and years getting her teeth cleaned.

今天是雯達和我的大喜日子，因為她終於洗牙了，老實說，我已經拖了很多年沒有給她洗牙了。

The veterinarian in me knows that we should be cleaning our dog's teeth maybe once to twice a year but I haven't done it in true confession six years and one of the reasons was I was scared to put her under anesthesia and I anesthetize dogs every day for CT scans and you know I send them to surgery but she has an arrhythmia and I was really concerned about that and today made me realize that my concerns are the concerns that many of you have about I'm scared to put my dog under anesthesia.

我這個獸醫知道，我們應該每年給狗狗洗一到兩次牙，但我已經有六年沒洗牙了，其中一個原因是我害怕給它麻醉，我每天都給狗狗做 CT 掃描，你知道，我把它們送去手術室，但它有心律失常，我真的很擔心，今天讓我意識到，我的擔心和你們很多人擔心的一樣，我害怕給狗狗麻醉。

So I just wanted to hop on and share my story with you.

所以，我只想和大家分享一下我的故事。

The reason that I was so scared was when she was four that was when she had a dentistry and that same year was when we fixed her torn cruciate it was actually six weeks after when she was having sedated x-rays when she had a really bad arrhythmia ventricular arrhythmia which could have been life-threatening and that was the first time that we detected that arrhythmia she's been she saw the cardiologist she's been on Sotolol an antiarrhythmic medication for six years but I felt that you know I didn't want to put her under anesthesia if she didn't need it.

我之所以這麼害怕，是因為在她四歲那年，她做了一次牙科手術，同年，我們修復了她撕裂的十字韌帶，實際上是在六週後，她在做鎮靜X光檢查時，出現了非常嚴重的心律失常室性心律失常，可能會危及生命。那是我們第一次發現她有心律失常，她去看了心臟科醫生，六年來一直在服用抗心律失常的藥物索托洛爾，但我覺得，如果她不需要的話，我不想讓她接受麻醉。

Last year she tore her second cruciate and we had to put her under anesthesia to get that fixed and she did super fantastic under anesthesia and it made me realize you know all that time that I've been so scared about anesthesia in her that it would be just fine so made the decision this year that she needed to get that dental her teeth were disgusting and they were really really needed a cleaning and her breath was horrible so she did great.

去年，她的第二根十字韌帶撕裂了，我們不得不給她打麻藥來修復，她在麻藥下表現得非常棒，這讓我意識到，你知道我一直都很害怕給她打麻藥，但她會沒事的，所以今年我決定讓她去看牙醫，她的牙齒很噁心，真的很需要清洗，她的口氣也很難聞，所以她表現得很好。

When your dog or cat gets that dentistry it's a great time for the veterinary technician and your veterinarian to look in their mouth and look for oral cancer because oral cancer is the fourth most common cancer that we see in dogs and very common in cats as well and even if your veterinarian is able to open up their mouth at their annual physical exam it's really hard to look at all parts of the mouth under the tongue so that dental exam is a great time for them to be doing a thorough oral exam to look for oral cancer.

因為口腔癌是我們在狗身上最常見的第四大癌症，在貓身上也很常見，即使獸醫在年度體檢時能夠打開它們的口腔，也很難檢查到舌頭下面的所有口腔部位，所以牙科檢查是獸醫進行徹底口腔檢查以尋找口腔癌的大好時機。

Good news for Ms. Matilda that in addition to not only not having any oral lumps or bumps and masses none of her teeth needed to be extracted so again it's just my reminder to that even though we're concerned about anesthesia we have to look at the benefits of the anesthesia and doing the procedure and for her getting her teeth cleaned and getting that clean bill of health in her mouth and just a reminder to get your dog's and cat's teeth cleaned on a regular basis you should be brushing your dog's and cat's teeth as well.

對於瑪蒂爾達女士來說，好消息是她不僅沒有任何口腔腫塊或腫塊，而且她的牙齒都不需要拔除，所以我再次提醒大家，即使我們擔心麻醉，我們也要考慮麻醉和手術的好處，而且她的牙齒得到了清潔，她的口腔也是乾淨的，這只是一個提醒，要定期為你的貓狗清潔牙齒，你也應該為你的貓狗刷牙。

True confession I don't do it as the frequency that you need to do those dentals as well so anesthesia is not as scary as it may be talk to your veterinarian and Matilda did just great yes she did not like being fasted and not having breakfast but she got half her dinner tonight and you're gonna get the other half this evening so thanks so much for watching guys if you have any questions you know about anesthesia drop them below please subscribe talk to your veterinarian about your pet's health and your concerns about anesthesia and then hopefully you will get the the green light and your pet will be able to get anesthesia so they can get the procedure done that they need what do you think about that baby girl yeah you're ready go yeah you say goodnight to everyone say goodnight thanks for watching guys we'll see you soon you

所以麻醉並不可怕，你可以和獸醫談談，瑪蒂爾達做得很好，是的，她不喜歡禁食和不吃早飯，但她今晚吃了一半晚飯，今天晚上你會吃到另一半，所以非常感謝你們的收看，如果你有任何關於麻醉的問題，請在下面留言。請在下面留言 和你的獸醫談談你的寵物的健康狀況 和你對麻醉的擔憂 然後希望你能得到綠燈 你的寵物就能得到麻醉
