The article informs that there are multiple reasons to consider referring a patient to a veterinary dental specialist. Factors to consider when deciding on when to recommend a referral include the patient's problem, the primary veterinarian's level of expertise, available equipment, and the individual client and their expectations regarding patient care.

They may allow the general practitioner to offer their clients diagnostic procedures, advanced dental procedures and expertise that they cannot provide themselves. |
