We are Australia's leading provider of Veterinary Dentistry, primarily in South East Queensland. Advanced Animal Dentistry loves teeth!

Advanced Animal Dentistry formed in 2006 when Dr Aaron Forsayeth joined Dr Gary Wilson with his already successful Veterinary Dental referral practice. With the creation of Advanced Animal Dentistry, the referral work expanded across south east Queensland, and has since allowed us to work in many other parts of Australia. As leaders in Veterinary Dentistry in Australia, Advanced Animal Dentistry provides a referral practice to Veterinarians for difficult dental cases; ongoing tertiary education for Veterinary Students in both Veterinary Science and Veterinary Tech courses provided by the University of Queensland; education services for Veterinarians and Nurses online and in-house; Lecturing and workshop opportunities at Veterinary Conferences throughout South East Asia. We've continued to expand in 2015 taking on board a resident, Dr Rebecca Tucker. Dr Tucker has quickly made a place for herself in the practice, and provides another great mind and set of hands to our business - allowing Advanced Animal Dentistry to provide more help to Australian pets. Dr Wilson retired in 2018, and left with AAD his legacy, and Australia in a stronger position with Veterinary Dentistry. Dr Tucker became full partner with Dr Forsayeth and together they have taken AAD forward.

🐾 Gingival Wedge Procedure (Gingivoplasty) for Dogs

Gingivoplasty is a dental procedure that reshapes the gums around misaligned mandibular canine teeth (lower canines) to help them grow in the correct position.

🐶 Who benefits?
This procedure is especially helpful for dogs with Class 1 malocclusion (base narrow canine/s), where the teeth are out of alignment but the jaws are correctly positioned.

🕒 Timing is key – it works best whilst the adult mandibular canines are still erupting, meaning the teeth are still moving and can be guided more easily into the correct position.

✨ Why it matters:
Gingivoplasty helps correct the malocclusion and prevents trauma if the teeth are impacting the gums or palate, reducing discomfort for your dog.

⚠️ GRAPHIC CONTENT WARNING ⚠️

🦷💥 Dentigerous Cysts – Hidden but Harmful

A dentigerous cyst is a fluid-filled cavity that forms around an unerupted (impacted) tooth, gradually expanding and causing bone loss, damage to nearby teeth, or even jaw fractures — often without any obvious signs.

🐾 Who’s at risk:
Any breed can develop a dentigerous cyst, but smaller breeds (like Chihuahuas) and brachycephalic breeds (like Pugs, French Bulldogs & Boxers) are more commonly affected — especially if a tooth appears “missing.”

🩻 Early Detection is Key:
Dental X-rays during routine check-ups can catch cysts before serious damage occurs. Early treatment is less invasive and helps protect your pet’s oral health.

Behind the Scenes — How We Handle Complex Dental Extractions 🦷🔍

Some older pets only have a few teeth remaining, present in a thinner, potentially weaker jaw. This can increase the risk of fracture during extractions.

With careful planning, precise technique, and plenty of patience, our team can safely manage even the most complex extractions—helping pets stay comfortable and recover well. 💙

The radiographs shown here demonstrate successful extractions with no complications. In this case, the patient now has no remaining teeth, but they still eat surprisingly well! Dogs and cats don’t chew their food the way we do, and in domestic homes we provide food small enough to swallow—even dry food can be fed. 🐶🐱

🐾 Anaesthesia & Safety for Senior Pets 🐾

Worried your older pet might not handle a dental procedure? Age alone isn’t a barrier - a thorough veterinary work-up, including blood tests, is important before any dental, especially in senior pets.

⚠️ We don’t recommend anaesthesia-free dentistry - these procedures cannot provide a thorough oral examination, perform dental radiographs, deliver a complete dental cleaning, or allow extractions if needed.

💡 If your pet has other health concerns, referral to us is an option, so a dental can be performed under the care of anaesthesia expert colleagues, who work to make the anaesthetic as safe as possible.

🗨️ If you’re concerned about your pet’s anaesthetic risk, speak with your Primary Care Vet to see whether referral is the best choice.

2017 saw expansion into two new established Veterinary Referral Hospitals - Veterinary Specialist Services at Jindalee, and Queensland Veterinary Specialists in North Lakes. Through the year recognistion finally came for Dr Gary Wilson’s amazing knowledge and experience in all Veterinary Dentistry, with him being recognised as a Registered Specialist. Dr Rebecca Tucker is coming close to the end of her formal residency, and Dr Aaron Forsayeth was finally granted permission to start a residency in Fellowship of the Australian and New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists in Small Animal Dentistry and Oral Surgery - the first person to ever do so.
