How to Use This Calculator

Enter Species, Body weight (kg), and Dental disease grade (0-4).
Set Extractions needed.
Review the Total estimated cost ($) ($) result.
Use Anesthesia cost ($) ($) and Prophylaxis cost ($) ($) to inform your decision.

How the result changes with Body weight (kg)

Body weight (kg)	Total estimated cost ($)
10	$360.00
35	$435.00
65	$525.00
90	$600.00

What each input means

Species: 0 = Cat, 1 = Dog (small <10 kg), 2 = Dog (medium 10-25 kg), 3 = Dog (large >25 kg).
Body weight (kg): Patient body weight in kilograms. Affects anesthesia cost.
Dental disease grade (0-4): 0 = Normal, 1 = Mild gingivitis, 2 = Moderate, 3 = Severe, 4 = Advanced periodontitis.
Extractions needed: Number of teeth requiring extraction.

What each result means

Total estimated cost ($): Total dental procedure cost estimate including anesthesia, prophylaxis, and extractions.
Anesthesia cost ($): Pre-anesthetic bloodwork, induction, maintenance, and monitoring.
Prophylaxis cost ($): Scaling, polishing, and curettage based on disease grade.
Extraction cost ($): Total extraction costs based on number of teeth and complexity.
Cost per extraction ($): Per-tooth extraction cost based on disease grade complexity.
Total teeth (species): Normal adult tooth count for the species.
Remaining teeth after extractions: Teeth remaining after planned extractions.

How this is calculated

Worked example, using the default values

Identify Input Parameters
4 parameters
Species = 1, Body weight (kg) = 10, Dental disease grade (0-4) = 2, Extractions needed = 0 = 4 input(s) provided
Calculate Total estimated cost
Total estimated cost = anesthesiaCost + prophylaxisCost + totalExtractionCost
360 = $360
Calculate Anesthesia cost
Anesthesia cost = 80 + weightKg * 3
110 = $110
Calculate Prophylaxis cost
Prophylaxis cost
250 = $250
