I live in Vienna down the street from McLean and it is VERY expensive to live 
here!  My other dog, Twister is due to get a dental cleaning and it could cost 
anywhere up to $800!  They charge $50.00 just for an office visit.  
Unbelievable!  I am going to call my mom's vet and see what they charge.  She 
lives in a more rural area of Maryland.

      I would do it when she gets spayed but I am not planning on spaying her.  
I am planning on breeding Cricket.  So she would have to be sedated just for 
her tooth extrations.  I am going to ask around at other vet clinics because it 
seems most people are saying it cost them $5 per tooth!  My vet is not even 
close to that in price!  I live in a very expensive area, Northern Virginia, 
which is near Washington, DC.  Maybe I will just have to drive further out to 
find a cheaper price.

        Thankfully, I haven't had to experience it, but yes, it is pretty 
common among chis. Whish is why a lot of people decided to try to do a 
spay/neuter and a teeth extraction under the same anesthesia...saves money and 
only a one time danger....

      Has anyone else had a Chi who retained some of their baby teeth?  My 7 
month old Chi, Cricket still has all four (2 upper and 2 lower) baby canine 
teeth and the adult teeth are growing in next to them!  All four of the baby 
teeth are not falling out and not even loose.  I asked the vet and he said they 
will have to be pulled.  It is going to cost between $180 and $450, depending 
on the sedation/anesthesia used!  The vet said this is a common problem in the 
smaller dogs.  I had no idea. Any thoughts?
