Dental health is essential to your pet’s overall well-being. Common signs your pet may need dental care include bad breath, difficulty eating, pawing at the mouth, and excessive drooling. You may also notice red or swollen gums, yellow or brown buildup on the teeth, or loose and missing teeth. Behavioral changes like irritability or decreased activity can also indicate oral pain. Left untreated, dental issues can lead to infections, tooth loss, and serious health problems affecting the heart, liver, or kidneys. White Fang Dental offers non-sedation, gentle ultrasonic dental cleaning for your furry family members.

Spinal facet joint and disc injuries—especially when inflamed, damaged, or worn—can cause significant pain throughout the spine by placing pressure on spinal nerve roots. Chiropractic care offers an effective, natural approach to managing and resolving these issues. Techniques such as manual spinal adjustments, biofeedback instruments, and the Thompson Drop Table method help relieve nerve root pressure by precisely restoring alignment and movement. As a result, pain is reduced or eliminated, and overall function improves. Every day, we hear our patients say, “I feel better already.” Come experience the benefits of chiropractic care for yourself!

Trochanteric pain syndrome is a painful condition of the hip that is most common in women in their 40s-60s (but can affect men). This is commonly painful when sleeping on your side and can be aggravated with activities. This condition occurs when the gluteus medius muscle tendon is irritated and can alter biomechanics of the hip and can also cause trochanteric bursitis. These conditions have recently been grouped under the name of trochanteric pain syndrome. Shockwave therapy, and rehabilitation exercises are two treatments with the most favourable empirical evidence for this condition. Book with one of our chiropractors if you think you may have this condition to learn about treatment options.

Q: Does anyone wear hard contact lenses any longer? My mom had them in the 1970’s.
A: Yes; the modern equivalents are called rigid gas permeable lenses, and they can be a great choice for certain eye problems. They are less common than soft contact lenses but surprisingly they are still being regularly innovated. You may need to ask around to see where they are obtainable.
