My boy went to the vets last week and needs another tooth out as it has a rotten quarter which has caused an infection in his sinus. He has to have a 4 week stay at the vets while the flushing etc is done. He is excluded from dental problems on his insurance and the minimum cost is £2000 if everything goes perfectly to plan. I am trying to get as much information on other people's experiences on these sorts of problems as I clearly have to weigh up the odds of problems, reoccurance, chances of success in clearing the sinus infection and the risk of the dental arcade drifting in the future. Unfortunatly this really is a case of life or death for him and I am completly at my wits end, especially as he is also going to have a permentantly enlarged fetlock, although the vet says that in his experience this shouldn't cause problems. I would really like more information before I discuss the situation with the vet again.
