I just read the comments and saw you answered that one question about cost.<br />I paid over $400, but I had everything else done, too: Coggins, vaccines, fecal test. Thee basic Maintenance Float costs only $65 plus sedation.<br />But my equine dentist's set up isn't near as nice as Sarah's. :)<br /><br /><br />~LisaLaughing Orca Ranchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03562627840013868980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2065325235071302257.post-30008169076722587582010-03-31T03:16:59.609-07:002010-03-31T03:16:59.609-07:00Good for you!

Sarah did an awesome job at leveling them and getting everything smoothed out.<br />She's got an awesome set up there. Wow!<br />Was it very pricey?<br />Did he seem sore the next couple days?<br /><br />Apache seemed tender for a couple days as he mouth adjusted because she had so much work done and it took close to an hour.<br /><br />When Baby Doll just had her maintenance done every year, she recovered much quicker and never seemed to be sore afterwards.<br /><br />The nice thing is next time you have him done...and I get Apache done, it will just be maintenance, too. And will be much easier and much shorter to get it done.<br /><br /><br />~LisaLaughing Orca Ranchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03562627840013868980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2065325235071302257.post-57809083954641463452010-03-28T14:00:44.942-07:002010-03-28T14:00:44.942-07:00This visit cost $240, but he hadn't had his te...This visit cost $240, but he hadn't had his teeth done in about 6 years. If I take him every year, it will probably be about $120. And I could have had a vet do it, but since Sarah does exclusively dental work, I knew she'd be good.The Equestrian Vagabondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15600011873327347121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2065325235071302257.post-11055772602629445042010-03-28T13:54:31.164-07:002010-03-28T13:54:31.164-07:00Verry interesting.

Hey, his mouth looks great Especially his incisors. I've assisted an equine dentist for couple years and I feel yours did great work. Horse will be spiffy indeed in a few months.<br /><br />Can that rolling dental mobile come to Calif? She's very good dentist! Expensive though I'm sure for all that work.<br /><br />Mouth came out beautiful though!

What a frady cat, I take really good care of my teeth trying to avoid ever having to sit my butt in THE CHAIR.
