Dogs need dental cleanings just like we do, but they have to sedation and anesthesia in order to complete it. Any vet can do this and the price depends on how bad the teeth and gums on. If X-rays are needed or teeth need to be pulled then it can get very expensive. You will have to call around for starting estimates
