I'd be very happy with your vet for catching this issue early.
Mild build-up can easily turn into something more and even though it is mild, the tartar and excess bacteria is very unhealthy.
Unless she needs extractions and xrays, that estimate is crazy.
I would hope it includes blood work but that is still too much. |
I agree. My jaw dropped when I read the estimate. Crazy!
Try Petzlife (I use spray - some prefer gel) and tooth brushing with a finger brush. I would try that for a few months at least before resulting to a cleaning. Good luck.
