Hello,
Dental costs are a combination of a few things. The degree of difficulty, the tooth (different teeth have different numbers of roots), patient status and anesthesia time. In general patients like this need the following; examination ($50), pre op blood work (lowest cost option is $50) and dental cost (usually $800 and up). Then post op medications like pain meds and antibiotics ($50-150).
During the exam we can give you a better estimate. Thank you for rescuing this dog.
PS you can also call the shelter/rescue and ask if they can provide this service.
Krista.
Wow Sarah, that’s brave of your vet AND the owner, must have been nerve-wracking to assist in that operation!
Tell us about this battling bruiser “winking” at the camera 🙂
How is he coping since the dental work?
