Great questions - you are really thinking ahead!

I would also purchase 30c Hypericum, as that is particularly good for nerve pains and the gums have a lot of nerves. After the Arnica (and you may want to start with the Arnica and only go to the drugs if she seems sore), or if the arnica is not helping, you could try the Hypericum (mix it up as Dr. jeff said for the Arnica).

And the very best is not to worry, send positive thoughts, visualize healing and all the "way of being" Dr. Jeff talks about in his book.

Keep us posted.

Dr. Jean - there are a lot more ingredients than listed in the post, that I could see - for the Pet Wellbeing Dental topical - Maybe you could check it out.

Oh, definitely do all of this at once... get it over with! Otherwise you just repeat the same amount of pain multiple times. (Ask my sister who had her wisdom teeth removed two at a time and was just as miserable twice, while I had them all out at once and was glad to be done!)

That is a reasonable drug protocol for dental surgery like this. I am not a fan of ketamine, but most conventional vets use it.

This will be fairly painful, and using meloxicam for a couple of days is fine. I generally use Arnica 1M post-op for dentals, one dose immediately after, repeat if he seems to be getting more painful. BEAM will tell you if he needs another dose.

@BettinaT I agree with Dr Jean H. I have used conventional drugs in serious procedures like multiple extractions which I have had done with my kitties in the past. I would use the buprenex syringes for my kitties pain control they gave me and back to my holistic regimen and raw food diet after through the initial healing. Good luck!

@Dr. Jeff
Is there anything I should focus on after the surgery, besides checking if he’s in pain and whether he needs arnica?

And what about the healing of the areas where they removed the teeth?
Would propolis be beneficial there?


And is there anything else I can do to support him during healing and help cleanse his system after the visit to the vet where they give him various medications?

@BettinaT I administer reiki or EFT,
