In this video we discuss the various factors to consider when an older pet is facing dental surgery. We discuss the risks of general anesthesia in geriatric pets, and how to minimize these risks by ensuring that your pet is otherwise healthy and a good anesthetic candidate. We also discuss the responsibilities and medical costs required of pet ownership, and recommend that pet owners become informed of and prepared for these obligations prior to getting a pet.
