So I rather take him to the specialist. I am planning on my June vacation from work, so I can be with him the days after to make sure he is hydrating and eating well and back to normal after anesthesia. The Pet Dental wants me to take Gotti to vet for blood work first its mandatory and I am all for it, he has never had a blood test. Dentist mandates CBC and chemistry within last 30 days before dental appt. Anyone know how much will be bloodwork and dental procedure. The dentist assistant only can give me the consult price of $95.00. I am praying it all turns out good. I love Gotti so that I am choosing the best a Pet Dental which of course....specialist is alwaysa a little more pricey. Thanks to all for feed back in advance.  |
Prices vary widely in different areas, anywhere from $200 to $1500, with extra charges for potential teeth extractions. The specialist should give you the base price for bloodwork, anesthesia/IV etc, and cleaning. They should also be able to tell you the price of a dental xray and individual tooth removal (if necessary).
I would not be happy if an office was not willing to give me this information.
