First, it is important to understand that more than 80% of pets over the age of 3 have periodontal disease. Many of these pets require additional treatment above and beyond a basic dental cleaning procedure. Anesthetic services included with all procedures include IV catheter placement, IV fluids, pre-anesthetic medications, induction agent injection, sevoflurane anesthesia, comprehensive anesthetic monitoring with advanced equipment, and the attention of multiple dedicated licensed staff technicians. The dental evaluation includes a complete oral exam and imaging with both dental x-rays and 3D imaging using Cone-beam CT. The dental procedure includes scaling and polishing the teeth both above and below the gum line, as well as a courtesy nail trim.
For dogs, a basic dental cleaning procedure at our facility costs $1,450, if the pet has recently had appropriate blood work, does not need any additional treatment, and does not have special anesthetic needs. For cats, a basic dental cleaning procedure at our facility costs $1,150, if the pet has recently had appropriate blood work, does not need any additional treatment, and does not have special anesthetic needs. These prices do not include pre-anesthetic bloodwork or other testing, if needed. Please be aware that many pets need additional treatment, other than a basic cleaning, during a dental procedure. Any additional treatment will increase the cost of the procedure. We strongly recommend that you schedule a dental exam at our office prior to scheduling a dental procedure. This will allow us to provide you with a more accurate cost estimate based on your pet’s oral health and anticipated treatment needs.
