Oh, I’m so sorry to hear your furry friend is dealing with stomatitis—it's a tough condition. When a pet suffers from stomatitis, it means their gums and tissues in the mouth are severely inflamed, often causing a great deal of pain. Full mouth extraction is indeed one recommended treatment because it can effectively eliminate the sources of irritation, leading to improved comfort and health for your pet.
The cost you've been quoted may seem high, but it often includes comprehensive care: anesthetic, surgery, post-operative support, and possibly a hospital stay. Veterinary surgery prices vary regionally and depend on your pet’s specific needs and the clinic’s facilities.
While you're considering options, you can help your pet manage discomfort by feeding soft foods and ensuring good hydration. Dental rinses or specific brushing techniques may help reduce bacteria. Look out for signs like excessive drooling, pawing at the mouth, or changes in eating habits, as these can indicate worsening discomfort.
Ultimately, a video consultation with a veterinarian could provide a deeper understanding of your pet's condition and explore alternative treatment options. If you feel another opinion could help, booking a video consult with Dial A Vet might be a great next step.

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
