I have 2 bichon frise dogs, One eats denta rusks and her teeth are very clean. The other one won't eat them at all so now her teeth are very brown. Does anyone know how much vets will charge to clean her teeth.
How much does it cost to get my dogs teeth cleaned at the vet?
our dogs it usually costs about £70.00-80.00, they have to be anethatised, so its quite a big deal, if their older they'll probabley need to have a few teetth out, it can be quite expensive. You can buy doggy toothbrushes and paste and do it yourself, but if there already brown get it done pro and then do it yourself after that.
Reply:Just buy a dog toothbrush and dog toothpaste at the store and go at it once or twice a week.
Reply:Somewhere in the 100-300 dollar range. Its expensive because they have to put your dog under while they do the cleaning.
Reply:my grandmaw takes her poodle to the vet to clean his teeth and it costs aroung 100 dollars but its worth it
Reply:i think you should phone your vet and just ask, you don't even have to give them your name. Everyone on here will only be guessing as we just don't know how much your particular local vet in your country/region will charge.
Reply:no but we had the same problem with our collie, buy your dog some REAL bones with meat on em and his teeth will become clean v quickly, this WILL work
Reply:about 20$
Reply:there are so many variables that it is not a question anyone can answer - where you live, the condition of the dogs teeth, whether any extractions are required and so on will all influence the cost. try using other forms of teeth cleaning options like tug ropes (specially designed for tooth cleaning) and other dental chew products or even - heaven forbid - bones in their diet ...
Reply:Not sure about a dog, but this might give you some idea. My cat needed the tartar removed from his teeth. I called for a quote and they couldn't tell me over the phone, So when I took him in for his annual checkup and vaccination I asked for a quote. The vet had to see him to see what would need to be done. The vet quoted me approx $350 to have this done including theater fee, sedation, Vet stay. Also another $90 if I wanted to have a Liver/Kidney blood test done prior to this to ensure my cat would take the sedation well.
Hope this helps.
Reply:It really depends on where you live. In Nevada, it's around $300.00 Your vet can surely be glad to give you an estimate. But if they pull any teeth, it could be more. They won't know if that is necessary till they actually get in there.
Reply:The price of a dental cleaning at most vets is directly proportionate the the amount of cleaning that needs to be done. For smaller jobs, when there is just a bit of buildup, it's usually 25 dollars at most vets. But it increases incrementally the more damage that has been done to the dog's teeth and can be in the hundreds if the tooth rot has gotten to the point where the gums are being infected and the teeth need to be removed.
If the dog's whole tooth at any point is brown, it has probably advanced to the point where a vet does indeed need to deal with it. However, if it is just on the tips and the teeth don't look as though they are wholly rotted, what you should do to save time and money is start right now and be sure to faithfully continue a teeth cleaning regimine. All dogs should have their teeth brushed by their owners at LEAST once weekly. This is a very easy process. Most grocery stores/wal-marts sell puppy tooth brushes (must use a puppy tooth brush because of the size/shape/angle) and puppy toothpaste (again, must use the type only for dogs because human toothpaste is very dangerous for them). You don't need to rinse the dog's mouth after doing this. Just brush their teeth like you would your own, making sure to be thorough. They may not like it at first, but will get used to it over time, and you will save a TON of money on what could be painful and costly vet cleanings.
Reply:Phone your vet. The actual price will vary from vet to vet. The vet will ask your dog's approximate weight so that they will know how much anesthesia to give when they sedate your dog for the tooth cleaning. It's a simple task really.
After the cleaning, you may want to brush your dog's teeth thoroughly a couple times a week to prevent tartar buildup. Regular brushing will not remove the tartar, only the vet will be able to do that, but brushing can prevent it.
Reply:rubber chew toys and hard dog food are good for that, if they eat lots of wet or moist food it makes it worse.
and you can buy a doggy tooth brush and do it yourself.
Reply:It's important to get their teeth checked, infected teeth leads to kidney disease, which you won't know until they get sick, then it's too late.
Call several vets in your area, here they do have different prices. Mine was $200.
Reply:It's really quite expensive. Why don't you just give the dog a toothbrush and save some money? Make sure she flosses also, especially the canine teeth.
Reply:Around $200 or so.
Reply:You could clean them your selves , i think a vet will charge about £75 different vets vary in prices if you are on benefits or know any one who is take them to the pdsa you dont have to pay you just have to put in a donation from as little as £20. PDSA : 0121 328 1716
Reply:Dogs have to be anaesthetised at the vets to have their teeth cleaned, so first of all why not ring your vet to find out the full details and how much it will cost. Once they have been cleaned at the vets they will need doing every 12 months as it removes the top layer of enamel and they get dirtier quicker.
Try specialist dog toothpaste like Logic every day. (available at vets or online)
Reply:Dental prices vary greatly around the country, so you could find yourself paying anything from $100-$500 depending on where you go and what needs to be done. You will pay more if any teeth need to be extracted, so I would imagine that your second dog will have an expensive dental bill.
You should know however, that February is National Dental Month, so you will get a discount from any vet if you have this done this month.
Reply:I have a Shih Tzu
