I didn't either but there was no way that they could risk him going under. I held him and he was such a good boy, their dental surgeon pulled the tooth which was the last rear molar. I rubbed his belly while the dental surgeon and her assistant worked at removing the tooth. ciao

Shes a squirmy little spitfire who doesn't like being proded so I dont think they could get her to hold still. I got a blur pic of her tooth its the bottom one. The top is yuk too but just needs cleaned and isnt inflamed.

A lot of that depends on if the vet would be willing to use gen anesthesia or even light sedation. I know none of the vets at my clinic would do it under general anesthetic. Reversible sedation may be an option though. If I remember correctly the name is "cat magic" or something along those lines?

Yea I've heard of that we discussed it being used for something years ago. Its just a light puff of gas right?

Yep. They gas them down really quick, do what's needed, and then give them a med (via injection I believe?) to reverse the sedation.

What my vet refers to as a "bump" sedation I'm assuming? Put them under and bring them out almost immediately

I had to get two teeth extracted from my one ferret. The last time i was there getting one removed and a cleaning, it came to $305. So it should be less if you are not having the teeth cleaned
