Im from Ireland, so my fee’s are different to yours, but that is absolutely excessive. Some vets I’ve heard will do it from between 10-60 dollars (i’ve paid between 20-65 euro for teeth burring)
I’ve also had my rabbits incisors removed, it cost €200 and one grew back(Which does happen so do think long and hard before getting the surgery, it does not always work)

I’ve heard the price of that in the states is more varied. But again, what you are being quoted sounds much too much. I’ve heard 500-1000 being the normal bracket.
My rabbit like I said had his removed, he needed his teeth done every 3ish weeks, as his teeth grew in such a way that it blocked his tongue and he would struggle to drink.

He had them removed and it was a horrible surgery.
They will refuse food after, the pain in their mouth plus anesthetic really knocks them for a bit. Mine took three days to eat anything on his own(which was considered fast recovery).
He’ll also need pain meds, which you will need to administer, so it’s a lot of your rabbitt not wantign to be ur friend for a while .
He will need to learn how to manage his food again. This means treats and veggies will need to be broken up into smaller manageable pieces(mine also needed hay cut up).
Buying treats becomes almost impossible(all toys are for chewers)
And of course there is a chance the teeth will grow back and all the effort and money and suffering will have been for nothing.

Now, I know it sounds like Im against it, Im not, it’s just a lot to consider. I weighed it all up and went for it anyway.
If it works out, it’s fantastic and you never have to worry about his front teeth again.
If it doesnt work(like it didnt for me) there is a lot of feeling angry and guilty.

Having said that my guy is hilarious with his 1 tooth,and has learned very quickly to adapt to it

Several years ago, a rabbit at the sanctuary where I volunteer had his incisors removed due to severe malocclusion. He did very well with the surgery, and has done well ever since. He is now around 10 years old. I don’t know what the price was, plus it was so long ago that the price wouldn’t be comparable to today’s prices, but the surgery certainly was a success in his case, and has allowed him to lead a good life.

From Italy here. When we had the procedure done last year it was 80€ for molar trimming (included stay at the vet for the evening) and 120€ for molar extraction + one evening. Always was given pain meds and antibiotics even when there wouldn’t be open wounds in his mouth.
Molars are harder to work on, so I don’t see why incisors should cost that much.

I don’t advice removal unless necessary. Pain management is very tricky for such a surgery and even if my vet is an expert in rabbit dentistry my bun didn’t react well to the pain treatment and got a very bad GI stasis. In hindsight, I wouldn’t have him go through that again.

Bramble gets his molars done on average every six months, sometimes a little more often. I think the most I have paid for it is about £150 (about $183 according to google) that includes his sedation plus meds plus them looking after him all day which my vets never charge me for plus a free follow up appointment which they always give me for either the next day or the day after depending on how he has been with them (he doesn’t recover well usually, but does bounce back by day three or so). I do know that rabbit vet care is much cheaper here because buns aren’t treated as exotics the way they are in the states.

Hmm, $2000 does seem excessive. I know prices can range widely across the US, but wow. That just seems like a lot.
