You're very welcome, glad I could save you from spending all that money. $700 for a teeth cleaning does sound outrageous. I wouldn't even spend that much money on my own mouth. If you are worried about your cat's teeth, all you need to do is go to your local pet store and buy something for his plaque, they have tons of different dental care products for cats at the pet store. You can buy cat toothpaste and it'll say "fights plaque and inflammation" on it, and you can buy a little cat toothbrush to brush it's teeth once a week or something, only when you feel the cat really needs it. There's also things like breath products so their breath smells better. They also have mouth sprays that take care of plaque and inflammation too.

I've had inflammation on and off for 3 years that I keep under control with really good toothpaste and frequent brushing, and I'm fine. Inflammation is actually a very common thing and tends to go away on its own with a little care and cleaning. Nothing that should cost $700 though!
