Yep, they are put under a general for a dental cleaning. I used to say avoid it at all costs. But I'm now under the mindset that if you do good oral hygiene at home, you can put it off until they are older. My Zoe's teeth looked beautiful, hardly any calculus or tarter. But she has periodontal disease which requires a deeper cleaning then you can do at home. I caught hers fairly early so hopefully she won't lose any more teeth. But she did have a tooth that had been fractured vertically, down to the root. I don't know how long it had been that way or when or if I would have caught it on my own. When they do a dental, they take x-rays too so hopefully any dead tooth will be caught before they abscess.
All I can suggest with sweet Bisou is to remember that you are bigger then she is and that this is something that HAS to be done. I know my friend Leslie (WoofLife. Hopefully she'll see this and comment) had the same problem as you. When she took them to see Dr. Becker and had Dr. Becker tell her to work on just one tooth every single night until they got to the point that she could work on two or more, she said for some reason she was able to get it done. She was wondering if it was more of a change in HER mindset and posturing.
I recommend just using your finger and a knee high pantyhose. :thumbsup:
