Boo's vet recheck (Tooth and gums)

**Laura's Babies** · 04-13-2009, 11:41 AM

What a lucky girl Miss Boo is. Turns out all it was, was one solid build up of tarter around her whole tooth that came right off in one piece when he scraped it the first time. The bacteria that built up in it is what inflamed her gums! He found another tooth on the other side that had the same build up and got that off. He was as surprised as me that it was such a simple fix! (No charge for todays visit either!) I had been so worried about her having to have that tooth pulled at her age and so was he... Thank You GOD!

Congratulations on the easy fix! I hope the gums feel better soon; it sounds like they will!

Now that's a good vet right there! My ret. vet used to do that w/all my cats and dogs; he'd just flick that tartar right off their teeth. Good job! Glad that it's all handled.

And Laura , you must feel relieved that your Vet got that tartar off before it became a real problem for Boo!!!

Talk about nipping that problem in the bud!!!!

They are wonderful there. Dr. Hidalgo is so handsome and sweet (go into "about" and select "Doctors"). Dr Hidalgo is always wanting recipes to try and I always take him some. Dr. Goss is always interested in Amy and is so sweet with her, he is the one that has a friend with a CH kitty so he is very interested in CH'ers. They really are like family there, all the girls are so personal and friendly and always happy to see you..

They cut you a lot of slack if you have multiple pets, knowing how expensive it can get.
