Puppy teeth?

My Chi puppy is 6 months old and has not lost the bottom front baby teeth and the adult teeth are just about all the way in. Will they ever fall out on their own? Does it hurt them to leave it in? Should I have them pulled? If they pull them, do they put them out ? Is this something that%26#039;s covered by doggie insurance?

Puppy teeth?
They may have to be pulled by the vet. As far as your insurance covering the cost, you%26#039;ll have to check your policy. Your vet may also know the answer to that.
Reply:If she hasn%26#039;t lost those teeth yet you will probably need to have them pulled out. Talk with your vet, leaving the teeth in will cause several dental problems later on in her life. You will have to check with you doggie insurance provider to see what your plan covers.
Reply:my 7 month chi hasnt yet and when they do they swallow the teeth
Reply:they usually use them themselves so you need to take your puppy to the vet and have them pull it because your dog might be in pain.if you notice pain do this fast. You might want to ask your vet about the insurance and price range though
Reply:Some dogs do require the baby teeth be pulled. If they are affecting the dogs bite you may want to. Only a vet that can see the teeth can determine that. I am not a great fan of puppy baby teeth today. I woke up this morning and stepped on one in my bare feet. My Saint pup is still losing some of hers.
Reply:They might fall out ,but if they don%26#039;t. Don%26#039;t worry about it. It doesnt hurt them unless they start to not eat or not chew on things. No dont have them pulled because it%26#039;s probably not covered by pet insurance.
Reply:I would say call your vet, sometimes you may not know it but dogs loose there teeth and almost immediately they have there adult teeth. I doubt pet insurance would cover it. Most vet%26#039;s don%26#039;t accept it anyway. And unless it%26#039;s a necessary surgery, usually they wont cover it. But you never know, maybe you%26#039;ll get lucky?





Good Luck.
Reply:It should be coverd by your vet, but my advice is to wait another week or more, and then take her tot he vet :)
Reply:Give it time, they will fall out on their own. Just like humans, dogs mature at different rates. I don%26#039;t know if the breed has anything to do with it.
