I agree to a dental cleaning performed under anesthesia at Animal Medical Center of Panola County and to pay for these services. I understand that all precautions will be taken to ensure the well-being of my pet, but with anesthesia complications may arise.
I understand that my pet will be given an examination prior to anesthesia. I am also aware that a good physical examination does not always reveal abnormalities that can be detected by other methods (e.g. bloodwork). I am also aware that preanesthetic bloodwork is available and is recommended by the staff.
Dental Extractions can be treated with a Therapy Laser which allows your pet to heal faster after extractions. This laser allows relief of pain through the release of endorphins and stimulates the injured cells to heal at a faster rate.
With routine teeth cleanings we also perform a thorough dental exam where we often find problems that need to be addressed such as tooth root abscesses, gingival erosion, loose teeth, extractions. To prevent further infection, the Doctor may recommend antibiotics after dental care is provided. If extractions and/or antibiotics are recommended by the Doctor:
Microchips can easily be placed while a pet is under anesthesia for an additional cost.
Histopathology is the microscopic examination of surgically removed tissue which is sent off to a diagnostic lab to determine what type of tumor tissue is present for an additional fee. This can vary depending on the number of samples sent off for testing.
In the event we need to contact you, please leave a number (s) where you can be reached.
In accordance with state and county law, all animals 4 months old and older are required to be current on Rabies vaccination. If the vaccination is not current, one will be administered. Other core vaccines such as Distemper Parvo and Bordetella are required while in the hospital for all patients protection against these deadly disease.
If the patient is found to have any infectious parasites, zoonotic or vector borne diseases, Animal Medical Center of Panola County reserves the right to treat at my expense to minimize the risk of infecting other patients in the hospital.
