Can puppy teeth that dont come out be bad?
Cripes,people....if you don%26#039;t know what you%26#039;re talking about...shut UP!!





Yes,if your pup has all his other %26quot;baby%26quot; teeth gone %26amp; the survivor isn%26#039;t even loose(can you wiggle it?) %26amp; he%26#039;s over 6 mons.-give or take- get it PULLED!! It CAN rot, CAN cause mallacclusion,WILL catch debris to cause more problems.





No big deal.
Reply:Sometimes you need to get them pulled.
Reply:no your puppy should be ok.


sometimes the puppies teeth don%26#039;t fall out.


i have 3 dogs, %26amp; they still have some of their baby teeth, in their mouths.


i just keep an eye on them, %26amp; make sure their teeth don%26#039;t get infected.


sometimes their teeth fall out %26amp; grow back looking like baby teeth.


your puppy will be fine.
Reply:well maybe it will come out you will have to just wait otherwise go to the doctors
Reply:If it is hurting your lil friend then yes have it pulled
Reply:your vet should be able to take it out. it can rot and give your dog bad breath if you dont get it out.
Reply:It could make the dogs mouth hurt eventually ecspecially when they are eating. You should go to your local vet and ask him for advice though. I wouldn%26#039;t want to jepardize it by asking some people you don%26#039;t know and don%26#039;t really care about your dog.
Reply:no its not bad. One of my dogs loose her teeth constanly for crashing into doors when she runs to fast and when they fall out they dont grow back.
Reply:See a vet. It could cause problems.
Reply:Sometimes puppy teeth just don%26#039;t come out on their own. If it isn%26#039;t easily pulled out by you, take her to the vet and he can remove it.
Reply:No they just need them pulled my collie had to have all of them pulled.
Reply:Like people, dogs can have tooth problems ranging from retained baby teeth and malocclusion to tooth decay. Since a healthy mouth depends on healthy teeth, pet owners should periodically check pet teeth, provide chew bones and toys, use biscuit treats so Boomer has to exercise his jaws, and feed a kibbled diet.





The roots of baby teeth should be absorbed as adult teeth erupt, but if this absorption is retarded, the baby tooth does not give way to the new tooth. Retained baby teeth can cause a bad bite -- a malocclusion -- that can lead to tooth decay and other problems later on. If a baby tooth does not fall out when the adult tooth grows in, it should be removed
Reply:If the puppy tooth does not come out, then it will have to be pulled out by the vet. I have seen this in a rescue. The tooth was pulled when he was neutered.


One of my own, I thought was going to have that problem. She eventually lost the tooth. Give it until 6-9 months and then show the vet.
