There is not much room in their little mouths and those permanent teeth kind of crowd up the baby teeth and allows the food to get stuck between them. Just be sure that any retained baby teeth she might end up with get pulled. When we neutered him at 7 months we pulled those retained baby teeth and the breath cleared up almost overnight.

Exactly what my vet said....Angel is having her baby teeth extracted next week.... She is 6 mos....and has the deadly "Death Breath"...lol
