If you're a bad owner, then so am I because I would not pay that much for this!!! That price would be reserved for an extensive oral surgery with adult extractions/xrayssealant or the like by somebody experienced in animal dentistry.

They probably do charge per tooth, but that is just crazy $$$.

I'll say Ellie had oral surgery. Nine adult extractions, cleaning, xrays, OraVet, anesthesia (isoflurane), antibiotics, pain meds, IV fluids, monitoring, surgery on heated table, hospitalization for the day, heartworm test, gum curettage, etc. for about $600 something. And the place she had it done at was considered very expensive (not to me, but to most other people).
