My recently adopted Boston Terrier fractured two teeth in one week.

My recently adopted Boston Terrier fractured two teeth in one week. Our new regular vet recommended Dr. Hall, and I was quick to agree given that my last experience with a fractured tooth treated by another local veterinary practice (NOT A SPECIALIST) ended in a fractured jaw. I read all of the reviews on Yelp and Google before the appointment, and my gut reaction was that some people lack experience with the cost of specialist veterinary care and the inability for any veterinarian to guarantee an outcome. I went to the appointment, and my experience pre and post operative has been very positive. He spent time with us during the consultation and I didn't have any reservations leaving my Boston with him for radiographs. Dr. Hall called me, and we discussed the options, pros/cons, and cost. The cost was in line with what I expected given my experience. (I have owned 3 rescue Boston Terriers, and all had medical issues). I never felt pressured. Once we settled on the specifics of the operation, Dr. Hall proceeded with surgery. My Boston has done very well and Dr. Hall (called) the morning after the procedure to check on us. Was the treatment expensive? It depends on your perspective. It was in line with what I've experienced with other specialists including another board-certified veterinary dentist - and what I expected based on my research. All specialty vet care is costly! I will pay more to get it right the first time. A broken jaw is a risk with lower jaw dental work and you reduce that risk by allowing a specialist (to) do the work. I would not trust a general vet to perform dental surgery. We are lucky to have a board-certified dentist for our pets in this area. Do your research. There are only about 100 in the world. In short, I highly recommend Dr. Hall and will return although I'm hoping we have no more doggie dental issues in the near future!
