This all being said, I have always had the impression that at a
typical
"Dental" visit at a veterinarian, they mostly used an ultrasonic
scaler on
the teeth and that was it. I do stress the word *impression*, as
I have
never asked about it.


Well, at my hospital, we clean the teeth, polish them, and then
apply
fluoride.
