Dog/cat home dental-care audit (WSAVA guidelines) — Schaumburg, IL.

Reused an already-verified fact for this tile rather than researching a brand-new one: confirmed via WebFetch to Wikipedia (earlier this session, for the sibling `canine_mobility_pain_screen`, `fecal_egg_count_monitoring`, and multiple other standards) that the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), founded 1863, is headquartered Schaumburg, IL, representing more than 105,000 veterinarians and accrediting every US veterinary college -- squarely including small-animal dental practitioners within its broad membership. HONESTY LIMIT stated directly: AVMA's real, verified national veterinary status is confirmed, but this session could not independently confirm via Wikipedia that AVMA specifically teaches or endorses the WSAVA Global Dental Guidelines this standard administers, so this connects to a real, verified national veterinary professional body in the same broad field, not a confirmed direct endorsement -- the same tier pattern used for the many AVMA/Schaumburg tiles earlier this session. A genuinely distinct real institution from the existing national, Minneapolis-St. Paul (Animal Humane Society's low-cost clinical access route), North Grafton (Tufts Cummings School), Toronto (WSAVA, the guideline's own issuing organization), Providence (AVDC, the specialty credentialing board), and Hoboken (Wiley, a broad-field publisher) tiles -- Schaumburg is the national veterinary profession's own umbrella body headquarters.

Pay

$130 proposed

This packet is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price and not money waiting in escrow. If a buyer funds it, approved proof settles that price onchain. If nobody funds it, approved proof earns provable credit toward the work instead of cash: recorded, and readable any time at vealth.net/labor/credit/(your wallet). You see which before you claim, never after.

Proof

A dental home-care record: current brushing cadence and products vs the daily-brushing standard, structured oral observations, and any disease sign routed to a veterinary dental exam

This is exactly what gets it approved. Nothing settles without it.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.

Bring

• Good light and a calm animal that tolerates a brief lip lift
• Pet toothbrush and pet toothpaste (never human toothpaste — xylitol risk)
• The VOHC accepted-products list (vohc.org)
• The animal's dental history if any

Steps

1. 1. Record the home-care baseline: brushing cadence, products used, and whether each product carries the VOHC seal.
2. 2. With a gentle lip lift in good light, observe (never probe): breath odor, visible calculus, a red line at the gumline, broken or discolored teeth.
3. 3. Record eating-behavior signs: dropping food, chewing one-sided, pawing at the mouth, drooling, reluctance with hard food.
4. 4. Coach the daily-brushing standard: introduce over 1-2 weeks (taste the paste, then finger, then brush), aiming at the outer surfaces, seconds per side to start.
5. 5. Where brushing is truly refused, select VOHC-accepted adjuncts and record them as adjuncts, not substitutes.
6. 6. Route any disease sign to a veterinarian for a proper anesthetized oral exam; record that no home scaling or anesthesia-free service was used or planned.
7. 7. Set the recheck date and the next veterinary dental due date.

What counts as done

• Current home-care baseline recorded (brushing cadence, products, whether products carry the VOHC seal)
• Structured observation recorded: breath, visible calculus, gum redline, chewing changes, pawing at mouth
• A coached daily-brushing plan the keeper accepted, introduced gradually
• Any disease sign routed to a veterinarian for an anesthetized dental exam, with confirmation that no home scaling or anesthesia-free 'dentistry' was attempted

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
