Pet's info: Dog | Papillon | Male | unneutered | 16 lbs
My dog needs really bad dental care, last time we went to the vet he had gingivitis, his teeth were decaying and falling out. Could you tell me how much it would be to get his teeth fixed? He also has a heart murmur now.

Teeth cleaning will vary greatly depending on the clinic you go to, and what needs to be done. If Spots also has a murmur, he'll likely need additional bloodwork or evaluation to determine if it is safe for him to go under anesthesia at all. Other costs will include dental X-rays to check for teeth that need to be pulled, cleaning costs, medications such as pain meds, etc for post-surgery, and the cost to remove any affected teeth. Talking with your current vet is best as they can provide a detailed estimate of costs.
