Hi guys! My adult male cat needs a dental cleaning. I’ve gotten quotes no less than $600 and I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for any practices with discounted cost? I’m usually able to afford that kind of bill but some crazy financial shit has been happening recently so I just thought I’d check. Thank you!!

dental is easily the most expensive form of cat care, it’s expensive everywhere. i would recommend the bridge clinic in bensalem!

The Bridge Clinic is probably the least expensive you'll find, yet still high quality medicine.

Whatever you do, DO NOT allow someone to clean your kitty's teeth without taking x-rays first. Just like in people, the majority of kitty dental disease lives under the gumline. You will waste all of your $$ if you forego the radiographs, and your kitty may need a second procedure in short time if you do.

A lot of the people in my cat groups rave about dental work at the bridge clinic.

This is a very good comment. Providence (excellent place) will provide a discounted cleaning, but usually not X-rays. If your vet suspects that your cat does/will need extractions, it's worth it to get X-rays done.
