When does a puppy looses its teeth for his new ones?

Here is some information on the Shedding of baby teeth in Puppies:





Let's start with some basic information:





Dogs are born with no teeth at all, but grow them in the first two or three weeks after birth. At around eight weeks of age, a puppy should have a full set of twenty-eight teeth (some breeds may have a slight variation), consisting of pre-molars (not full molars), incisors, and canines.


Beginning around three months of age, puppies start to lose their first set of teeth. The first ones noticed are usually the pointier canines, when an owner notices blood on chew toys. Many times an owner won't even realize his puppy has started to shed teeth.


Adult teeth start to erupt within a few days of losing a tooth, and you'll notice your puppy has started a reign of terror, mouthing everything, chewing like there's no tomorrow.This is my favourite part of puppyhood ... not.


An adult set has forty-two teeth: twenty-two on the lower jaw (mandible) and twenty on the upper jaw (maxilla). Twelve incisors, four canines, sixteen pre-molars, and four molars on the upper jaw, and six more on the lower jaw.

Reply:a puppy generally looses it's milk (puppy) teeth around 4 to 5 months of age. They also generally swallow their teeth but you may notice a few on the floor. You can really tell their loosing thier teeth when they start chewing everything up. They should have all thier adult teeth between 6-8 months.
Reply:depends on the breed, but usually around 6 months of age.

Reply:Puppy has total of 28 teeth, evenly divided between the lower and upper jaw. By the time a pup is 6 to 7 months old, his baby teeth will been replaces by full set of 42 adult teeth.


Only if something disrupts the process or forced to grow in an adnormal direction, the tooth may fall out under pressure, if not, dog don't looses tooth like human do. If so, it mean they're old or their teeth is decayed due to neglecting of brushing his teeth. It quite serious if something happen to his teeth as it will cause pain to him and a risk that illness will occur too.
