Cassie The 7 Year Old Cockapoo’s Dental Cleaning
Treatment Cost (USD): $462.19
Cassie is a 7 year old Cockapoo who presented to the clinic due to limping. During her complete physical exam, the veterinarian evaluated Cassie's teeth and noted that she had significant tartar buildup. She recommended that once Cassie's issues with lameness resolved (which they did, happily!), she should have a thorough dental cleaning. Preliminary bloodwork was ordered at this initial appointment, before scheduling Cassie's dental cleaning, during which she would be under general anesthesia.

Dental Cleaning Without Extractions Needed In A Young Chihuahua. Meet Rocco.
Treatment Cost (USD): $274.70
Like many chihuahua's Rocco was acquiring dental calculi and gum inflammation at an early age. He needed a dental cleaning to help resolve these. All dogs should have daily tooth brushing, the smaller breeds likely need cleanings every 2-3 years. We wanted to clean his early to try to avoid extractions down the road.

Hi, And Thank You For Free Advice. My Vet Isn’t Available. Our 16 Yr. Old…

Hi, and thank you for free advice. My vet isn’t available. Our 16 yr. old female cat was just diagnosed with kidney/renal issues. Changed her food and she appears to be improving. Teeth cleaning needed, never been done and breath is bad, but her condition too compromised to be put under/stress so maybe BRUSHING would help? OR Dental Fresh Original Water: Stabilized Chlorine Dioxide.0.1%, Stabilized with Sodium Bicarbonate (Baking Soda). What if any action is best? blood results attached.

    Hello,
    I am sorry to hear about your kitty. Has the vet talked to you about a full blood work panel and a urinalysis? Checking blood pressure? starting fluid therapy? and a phosphate binder? I would probably start here and discuss a dental down the road after her numbers stabilize. If possible I always recommend seeing a feline specialist or internal medicine specialist or making an appointment with your vet to come up with a treatment plan for her now.
    I hope this helps.
    good luck!
    Please let us know how she is doing

    Yes, blood work only, attached on first question but here it is. ALB 3.0 ALP 122 ALT 224 AMY 1136 TBL 0.2 BUN 46 CA 9.2 PHOS 15.1 CRE 1.9 GLU 90 NA+ 147 K+ 4.2 TP 8.3 GLOB 5.4. Vet said blood sugar and heart rate good. Now eating renal/kidney specific food as per vet. She loves it. Since then, not drinking so much water and so much urine as before, but still drinking, eating. Phosphate binder? no. My vet had shoulder surgery, not available presently. Will find out. Also giving a pinch of collagen powder. My hope is that she is comfortable. My prayer is for healing, I believe as a Christian. I know we are all on our way from mortality to eternity. So I stand in hope for the best situation to reign. Her teeth apparently are in need of attention and I’m concerned they are further challenging her little body but vet shrugged it off like she’s on her way out anyway, why put her through further stress. This is why I thought maybe I would try working with her so that she might at least at some point allow a quick brush. Is this safe for her or would I be releasing more poison by brushing? How about water additives? attached is blood work printout and pic of Gracie. Thanks so much for all you do Krista.
